16. _A Subject from the Winter's Tale_--good. W. H. Worthington.
55. _Progress of Civilization_--painted for the Mechanics' Institute at Hull. This work is admirably conceived, and reflects great credit on the talents of Mr. H. P. Briggs. 56. _Mary Queen of Scots meeting the Earl of Bothwell between Stirling and Edinburgh._ Mr. Cooper has treated this subject with his usual care, and appears to have delineated the costume very accurately. The horses are spirited, and finely executed. 62. _Portrait of Lady Lyndhurst_--painted very much in the manner of Rembrandt, by D. Wilkie, R. A. 65 and 66. _Portraits of their Majesties_--painted for the Corporation of the Trinity House, by Sir William Beechy. 78. _An Italian Family_, by C. L. Eastlake, is an interesting picture, and extremely rich in colour. 79. _The Maid of Judith waiting outside the tent of Holofernes, till her Mistress had consummated the deed that delivered her country from its invaders:_ a wonderful production, by Etty. 84. _Scene near Hastings._ Rev. T. J. Judkin. 86. _Interior of a Highlander's House_--very fine. Edwin Landseer. 105. _Portrait of Miss Eliza Cooper_--a chaste and highly-finished production, by Sir M. A. Shee. |
