embroidered vest, and a very full cloak. He is seated, holding
a walking stick with both hands, the under one having only
the fingers on it. Engraved by Cooper, from a picture then
in the collection of the Duke of Buckingham.

447. A Jew Rabbi, of a venerable appearance, having a
large bushy gray beard. He is seen in a front view, wearing

in front with gold ornaments. His vest is also relieved by a
gold chain, and a kind of fringed belt, and a dark cloak covers
the shoulders. This is a well-studied production.
