16. The Bathers. The view exhibits a mountainous coun-
try, dotted with buildings on the summits of the rocky hills,
and distinguished, on the left, by a vault and a tower at the
entrance to an ancient chateau. On the opposite side is a
river, which ssows in a winding direction among the moun-
tains. The foreground is varied by trunks of trees and other
appropriate details ; and in this part are two bathers, one of
whom has cast his red mantle on the branch of a tree, and
the other is dressing himself.
3 st. 2 by 3>st. 7s.—P.
Collection of the late Count Perregaux, 1841. 1820 fs. and
5 per cent. (76Z.)
17. L’Accident du Voyage. View of a mountainous coun-
try, with a cascade ssowing from a hill, on the right, and
rushing impetuously over a rugged bed of rocks to the oppo-
site side, there forms a pool. A rustic bridge of timber,
over the stream, has given way with a woman on a mule, and
the beast having fallen through the broken planks, his rider
is tumbling from its back ; this accident has terrified an
attendant behind her, who has charge of a richly caparisoned
mule : beyond these are some travellers arriving from a pass
in the mountains. Morning.

In the Collection of Charles Bredel, Esq.
18. A hilly and well-wooded Country, with the remains of
a gateway over a road. See No. 48, Vol. vi., for a similar
scene. A man stooping at a stream in front, a boy by his
side, and two cows and two sheep, distinguish it from that
picture.
Ill in. by 10.—P.
From the Collection of Lord Wharncliffe.
Sold by Messrs. Smith to Wm. Theobald, Esq.
