JMITATIONS OF ORIGINAL DRAWINGS BY HANS HOLBEIN, in the Collection of His Majesty,

for the Portraits of Illustrious Persons of the Court of Henry VIII. With Biographical Tracts. Published by JOHN CHAMBERLAINE, Keeper of the King's Drawings and Medals, and F.S. A. London, 1792-1800.

This beautiful volume is printed in super royal folio, and is dedicated to the Queen. In an Advertisement the Editor gives a short account of the Drawings, the Imitations of which are here presented to the world. All the circumstances which could be collected relative to them have been published by Mr. Horace Walpole, whose words Mr. Chamberlaine quotes as follow.

"At present an invaluable treasure of the works of this master is preserved in one of our palaces. Soon after the accession of the late King, Queen Caroline found in a bureau at Kensington a noble collection of Holbein's original Drawings, for the portraits of some of the chief personages of the Court of Henry VIII. How they came there is quite unknown: after Holbein's death they had been sold into France, from whence they were bought and presented to Charles I, by Mons. de Liencourt. Charles changed them with William, Earl of Pembroke, for a St. George, by Raphael, now at Paris. Lord Pembroke gave them to the Earl of Arundel, and at the dispersion of that collection, they might be bought by, or for, the King. There are eighty-nine of them, a few of which are dupli, cates. A great partáre exceedingly fine, and in one respect preferable to his finished pictures, as they are drawn in a

bold and free manner, and though they have little more than the outlines, being drawn with chalk, upon paper stained of a flesh colour, and scarce shaded at all, there is a strength and vivacity in them equal to the most perfect portraits. The heads of Sir Thomas More, Bishop Fisher, Sir Thomas Wyat, and Broke Lord Cobham, are master pieces."

Such is Mr. Walpole's account, to which the editor says he can only add, that they were brought from Kensington to the Queen's House early in the present reign, and by His Majesty's order, were taken out of the frames in which they had most injudiciously been suffered to remain for some years, and bound up in two volumes. Some, according to Lord Orford, have been rubbed, and others traced over with a pen on the outlines, by some unskilful hands. In an old inventory belonging to the family of Lumley, mention was made of such a book in that family; with a remarkable note, that it had belonged to Edward VI, and that the names of the persons were written by Sir John Cheke. Most of these drawings have names in an old hand, and the probability of their having been written by a Minister of the court, who so well knew the persons represented, is an addition to their value. Vertue had undertaken to engrave these drawings, and after spending three years on them broke off, after having traced off on oil-paper about five and thirty. These were bought by Mr. Walpole at his sale, and are so exactly taken, as to be little inferior to the originals.

With regard to the present publication, it is merely necessary to mention that it exhibits the most faithful copies of the originals. The Biographical Tracts which accompany the drawings are derived from no common sources; they are collected from the most respectable authorities, chiefly from original manuscripts, and no pains have been spared to render them correct and interesting.

This work was published in 14 numbers, and though
