39. Vertumnus and Pomona. This beautiful and highly-
finished picture represents a young lady dressed in white
satin with a blue scarf over her left shoulder, seated,
resting her left arm on a marble table covered with a carpet,
on which are some peaches, &c. She holds in her hand a
pruning knife, and an apple is in her lap ; she appears
listening to the persuasions of a comely old lady, who stands
leaning on her staff on the other side of the table, dressed
in a morone-coloured cloak, with a black scarf over her head.
A statue of Venus is behind, and two figures in niches are
seen in a grove in the background.
