Imperial 8vo, half calf. 6263*THE CHANDOS Portrait of Shakespeare, engraved in the first style of Art by Samuel Cousins. Folio. 158

128

N.D.

This highly interesting portrait of the great poet ranks, in the authenticity of its likeness, with the Stratford Bust and the Droeshout Engraving, before the highly priced and highly prized folio of 1623. Its genealogy has been traced from Sir William Davenant (who lived with those to whom Shakespeare was personally known) to Betterton the great actor, thence to Mrs. Barry the great actress, who sold it for forty guineas to Mr. Keck, from whom it descended to the Duke of Buckingham, and at the Stowe sale was bought by the Earl of Ellesmere for 355 guineas. Another proof of its genuineness, if other proof is wanting, is that Sir Godfrey Kneller made a copy of it for Dryden, and that the copy thus made is now at Earl Fitzwilliam's, at Wentworth House, in Yorkshire, as an old inscription on its back attests. Dr. Waagen has described the Chandos Portrait in his able account of the Bridgwater Gallery, and refers to Mr. Cousins's engraving as "a very faithful version of the portrait." He also alludes to the Kneller copy as corroborating the truth of the Chandos original. The plate was destroyed by the Shakespeare Society after a very limited number of impressions. 6264 SHAKESPEARE'S Comedies, Histories, and Tragedies, published according to the true original copies. Folio, THE SECOND IMPREsSION, portrait by Droeshout, with the opposite verses which are facsimilied with printers' ink (nine out of ten would not detect their genuineness, so admirably are they executed) GOOD LARGE COPY, in russia, gilt leaves. £12. 12s 1632
