merly in the Orleans Collection, now at Castle Howard,
having, by the permission of the Earl of Carlisle, been-co-
pied by. Mr. Within, Jun, for the pUrpose of forming one
of a ,series of TWE-LVE LARGE ENGRAVINGS, tribe'
executed by the principal- Artists of the present period, •
with a view of exemplifying the Works of the leading Mas-
ters of the Roman,- Florentine, Bolognese, Venetian, Lam- .
bard,Spanish,frencli, end Flemish Schools, the Amateurs of
Painting and of fine 'Engraving are respectfully informed,'

ings after these Masters, from 'which this Work .will be
executed, are now on—View, at the Gallery, je, Sack. •
ville-street, Piccadilly, which will enable them to form
corred idea not only of the nature of the Work itself,- but'of
the selection of,which it will be composed.
In illustrating, by individual examples, the Compositions
of three of the Schools above mentioned, it is
.intended to
ad6pt the very general 'subject of the HI STORY of OUR;
SAVIOUR, taken at some of its most interesting periods.
This is most happily aftbrded by the Ibllowing capital Pic-
tures : by the y irzlin, Young Christ, and. Sr. John,- of Rat:-
ladle, now in the Stafford Gallery ; by the Holy Family
of lull° Romano, in the Colledion of the Right Honourable
Lord Radstock; by Christ among the Doctors, in the picture
of Leonardo da Vinci, in the possession of the Right Hon
Lord Northwick ; and by the picture of Annibal Caracci,
above mentioned. Tdeae four, Pictures, while they oiler
choice examples of the Roman, Florentine, and Bolognese
Schoole, will also form a Set equally valuable for the Port.
hal io, or the A pktrtinentof the Amateur.
The Venetian anti Flemish Schools being those in which
Colouring has taken a-lead; will be exemplified by thegay
and lightsorne. subjects of and' Paul Veionese' and .
the Allegorical and Historical Works of Rubenseuid Van-
dyke, while the schools of Lombardy, of Spain, and of
France, will be sherd in the Works` of Correggio, Mori to,
and Niccolo Poussin. • These again will be,so classed, as to
form SETS, ifl the same .eianner as those atiove specified`;
and the Prospeetos of this Work will shew the various
-compositions that have been seieded, which will be toured
to embrae some of the Finest Pictures "in this country.

the most eminent Engravers of Modern Europe. -
