105. J. Joest: St. Anne enthroned, Joseph, Our Lady, the Infant. Early transitional. 193. Jean Gossaert, Adam and Eve. Good later Flemish nude. 50. J. Bosch: Appalling Flemish Temptation of St. Anthony, with perhaps the silliest and most grotesquely repulsive devils ever painted. 2. Aertsen: *The Dutch Cook. A famous picture, showing well the earlier stages of Dutch _genre_ development. 217. Van Hemessen: _Genre_ piece, absurdly given the name of The Prodigal Son, by a sort of prescription, but really a Flemish tavern scene of the sort which afterwards appealed to Dutch artists. A characteristic work: transitional, but with good humorous faces, especially to the right. Painters still thought all pictures must pretend to be sacred. 591. German Adoration of the Magi. A fragment only. 603. Herri met de Bles: The Temptation of St. Anthony. Figures and landscape show Italian influence. 336. Transitional Adoration of the Shepherds. Observe the growing Renaissance feeling and Italian influence. 247, 248. Excellent portraits by Adrien Key. 41. Lancelot Blondeel: St. Peter enthroned as Pope: in one of his usual extravagant architectural frameworks. In circles above, his Imprisonment and Crucifixion. Close by, unnumbered, two excellent portraits. 81. P. Brueghel the Younger: absurdly called The Census at Bethlehem. In reality a Flemish winter scene. 318. Sir Anthony More: *Portrait of the =Duke of Alva=, with the firm lips and cruel eyes of the ruthless Spaniard. One understands him. 359. Good portrait by Pourbus of a plump and well-fed Flemish gentleman. 80. P. Brueghel the Younger: Described as the Massacre of the Innocents. Flemish winter. The beginning of _genre_ painting. Most of the pictures skied above these are of some interest for comparison with earlier examples of the same subjects. 565. Unknown French portrait of Edward VI. of England. Hard and dry and of little artistic value. 566. Tolerable Flemish portrait of Guillaume de Croy (Golden Fleece). 573. Good Flemish portrait of a woman, dated 1504. 555. Flemish school: Annunciation. Chiefly interesting for its conventional features, and its very quaint figure of St. Mary of Egypt, with her three loaves, in the R. panel. 124B. (Old number; no new number given.) Unusual combined picture of St. Jerome, uniting the subjects usually known as St. Jerome in the Desert and St. Jerome in his Study. 622. Fine German portrait of the early 17th century. 316. Good strong portrait, by Sir Anthony More, of Hubert Goltzius. 123. =Cranach= the Elder (German 16th cent.): *Adam and Eve. Fine specimens of the later northern nude of the early Renaissance, interesting for comparison with the cruder realism of Van Eyck. As yet, however, even the figure of Eve has relatively little idealism or beauty. Excellent stag in the background.
