There were also copies made by Leighton himself of _Peace and War_ after
Rubens, the _Massacre of the Innocents_, after Bonifazio, _A Martyrdom_,
and the _Last Supper_, after Veronese.
The huge collection of studies, mainly in chalk upon brown paper, made
by Lord Leighton, were nearly all preserved; two hundred and forty of
these were exhibited by the Fine Art Society, who bought the whole
collection, and afterwards published a volume containing forty
reproduced in facsimile.
