Some idea of the beauty of the picture can be gathered from the photographs which I send under separate cover, and which you would perhaps kindly return if not required. Should you be interested in the picture will you please let me know at your earliest convenience. Believe me, Yours very truly, John R. Eyre

P.S. Mr. Blaker has also a very fine Holbein, representing an ancestor of Viscount Sidney, in whose family it was formerly. In his collection he has fine examples of Reynolds, Terniers, Van Goyen, Maas, Gainsborough +etc. J. R. E.
