Convent ; The Prize Ox, by P. P. Rubens : this extraordi-

by many, possesses that superior power of colour and strict
representation of nature that, as a work of art, must claim
admiration ; Seaport, with numerous Figures, Jno. Baptiste
Weenix : possessing fine quality of colour, and affords every
evidence of its originality, independent of the original signa-
ture of the master; View in Venice, Guardi: a beautiful
Cabinet specimen, from a collection of twenty of similar size,
recently imported; Portraits of the Artist and his Wife, De
