small pictures by the master, but they cannot confidently be assigned to him. HAMPTON COURT, LONDON. Virgin seated, with the Child on her knee, patting his chin. Injured and restored. BRITISH ISLES 69 HERTFORD HOUSE, LONDON. Wood, Virgin, Child, and three cherubs. In the distance St. Francis, in ecstacy, listening to celestial music. Monogram. Inscribed : " Andrea del Sarto Florentine Faciebat." "This is one of del Sarto's good productions, slightly injured by cleaning and retouching." (Crowe and Caval- caselle.) Madrid, No. 384, is reproduction of the same. WINDSOR CASTLE. HOLY FAMILY. Wood, 3 ft. 6 x 2.8. Virgin seated, holds Infant on her knee. To her right, St. Elizabeth, supporting the little St. John. St. Catherine, to her left, leans upon her wheel, on which is inscribed : "Andrea del Sarto Florentine Faciebat." St. Catherine wears a red scarf, her head covered with a yellow fichu. There is a sketch for St. Catherine in the British Museum. Called by Crowe and Cavalcaselle "a careful but tame imitation of Andrea, by comparatively modern painter." This opinion we do not share. Picture branded " W.R. 127."
