, the gifted genius of histime, Van Dyck has rarely been seen to better advantagein this country than in this portrait of the ^reat Germanprince, who stands in dignified attitude with his immensedog beside him. It is a noble portrait, and done in a masterlyfashion with all his dexterity, authority, and sincerity. Seri-ous of face, wearing a pointed beard, with one hand at hiswaist and the other by his side, the man is depicted againstan imposing column. The severity of his black clothes givesadded importance to the pose, and the painting of the blacksis a tour de force in itself. The face and hands are superblypainted, and the whole canvas is held together in a manneronly possible with so able an artist. From the collection of the Prince of Turn and Saxe. From the collection of Monsieur L. Alvin, Professor at the Brus-sels University. Exhibited in 1897, at Old Masters* Exhibition inBrussels. A painting by Van Dyck of the Duke de Newbourg, very similarto this, is in the Munich Gallery.

No- 49.FERDINAND BOL. UH—J68J. Portrait of Rembrandt* Height, 23 inches. Width, 19 inches. THIS portrait of the master Rembrandt, painted by per-haps his most distinguished pupil, is an interesting combina-tion in the way of artist and sitter, and is a worthy likenessas well as a most serious artistic rendition. Rembrandtwears his famous black beret, in which he so often paintedhimself. His hair is gray, but still curling as in his youth,and the expression on his face is one of serious thoughtful-ness, of firmness, and yet, withal, sad. Perhaps it waspainted when the master was at the lowest in the tide of hismisfortunes, with Saskia dead and the world against him.But the painting is broad, powerful, and thoroughly compre-hensive, and the masses are put in with great distinction.
