quarter view ; the shoulders are covered with a mantle bor-
dered with fur. Dated 1631.

319- A very small Head of a grotesque character, seen in
a profile view, having on a fur cap, surrounded by a band.

320. Another small Head, having the appearance of being
that of a beggar ; the mouth is open, as if he were calling to
some one; he has on a pointed cap, and a coat attached by
a single button.

is finished. He has on a large slouched hat.

322. A Bust of a young Man, with a hat on of the same
form as the preceding.
