The National Portrait Gallery was founded in 1856, in pursuance of a motion made by Earl Stanhope, P.S.A., in the House of Lords on the 4th of March, 1856. His Lordship had previously addressed a letter to H.R.H. the Prince Consort, announcing his intention to invite public attention to the importance of forming a British Historical Portrait Gallery, to which His Royal Highness was pleased to return an immediate answer, stating that the scheme had His Royal Highness's entire concurrence. The motion brought forward in the House of Lords received the cordial support of the Marquese of Lansdowne, the Earl of Ellen- borough, the Earl of Carnarvon, and many other peers, and a resolution was passed in the following terms : — That an humble Address be presented to Her Majesty, praying that Her Majesty will be graciously pleased to take into Her Royal Consideration the expediency of forming a Gallery of the Portraits of the most eminent Persons in British history. The Address having been duly presented, the proposal received the full sanction of the Crown, and was carried into effect by the House of Commons, when the Government proposed a grant of 2,000Z. for the ensuing year, which was voted by Parliament 6th J une, 1856. On 2nd December of the same year a Board of Trustees was appointed by Treasury Minute, and constituted as follows : — Trustees. The Lord President of the Council for the time being. The Marquess of Lansdowne. The Earl Stanhope. The Earl of Ellesmere. The Lord Elcho. The Right Honourable Sidney Herbert. The Right Honourable Benjamin Disraeli. The Lord Robert Cecil. The Right Honourable Thomas Babington Macaulay. Sir Francis Palgrave. Sir Charles Eastlake, President of the Royal Academy. William Smith, Esq. William Hookham Carpenter. Esq. The following passages from the Parliamentary Debate upon the formation of a Gallery of British Historical Portraits, which took (13497—28.) Wt. 6268—812. 5000. 8/09. D & S. (&) a 2 iv place in the House of Lords, Tuesday, March 4th, 1856, have been selected for permanent record : — " Earl Stanhope attached the greatest impo>-ta?ice to the authoritative power of refusal, and believed the whole success of the under- taking would depend upon the proper exercise of that power : for if they admitted into a national collection portraits of those who possessed no adequate claim to such honour, the inevitable conse- quence would be that the Gallery would be deprived of all the distinction which he wished to see attached to it. ******* " There ought not to be in this collection a single portrait as to which a man of good education passing round arid seeing the name in the catalogue, would be under the necessity of ashing, ' Who is he ? ' Such a question ought to be decisive against the admission of the portrait. " TJie success of the whole scheme depended on confining the Gallery to men of real distinction, of real fame." Temporary apartments for the reception of the pictures and trans- action of business were provided at 29, Great George Street. Westminster. The first day of opening was the 15th January, 1859. From June, 1865, the public entered without limitation during three days in the week. At the close of the year 1869, when the number of portraits amounted to 288, the Collection, pending the construction of a building expressly adapted for the purpose, was removed by the First Commissioner of H.M. Works, under authority of the Treasury, to the eastern portion of the Long Building at South Kensington, which, during the great exhibition of 1862, had formed the southern boundary of the Horticultural Gardens. In this provisional building the Gallery remained till the Autumn of 1885. After an outbreak of fire at the South Kensington International Exhibition, in close proximity to the galleries occupied by the National Portraits. June 12th, 1885, the Government determined upon the removal of the collection to a place of greater security, and the First Commissioner of H.M. Office of Works stated in the House of Commons, July 20th, that arrangements were being made for the transfer of the collection on loan to the Bethnal Green Museum for a limited period. The Gallery at South Kensington was closed to the public on the 1st of September, and the Collection was shown to the public newly arranged in the Bethnal Green Museum on the 22nd of October, 1885. Temporary apartments for the transaction of business and the reception of new acquisitions were provided at 20, Great George Street, Westminster, but no further arrangements were made to transfer the Collection from the Bethnal C4reen Museum to any permanent home in the West End of London until May. 1889, when William Henry Alexander, Esq., of Shipton, Andover, Hants, made an offer to H.M. Government to build a National Portrait Gallery at his own expense, provided that H.M. Government would afford a site for it within a distance of 1^ miles from St. James's Street. In response to this munificent offer, H.M. Government offered to Mr. Alexander a site immediately at the back of and contiguous to V the National Gallery. This site was accepted by Mr. Alexander, who appointed Mr. Ewan Christian to be the architect of the new building. The new building was commenced in October, 1890, but was not ready for occupation until the spring of 1895. It was completed at a cost of 96,000/., of which sum Mr. Alexander provided 80,000/. and H.M. Government 16,000/., to complete the east wing. The offices, temporarily located at 20, Great George Street, Westminster, were transferred to the new building in June, 1895, and the whole Collection of National Portraits was received into the new building during the same month from the Bethnal Green Museum, the temporary premises at 20, Great George Street, Westminster, and the National Gallery. The new National Portait Gallery was opened to the public on Saturday, April 4th, 1896. In March, 1895, Sir George Scharf, K.C.B., who had held the post first of Keeper and Secretary, and latterly of Director, Keeper, and Secretary, from the foundation of the Gallery, resigned his post through age and failing health, and was succeeded by Mr. Lionel Cust, M.A., F.S.A., formerly Assistant in the Department of Prints and Drawings at the British Museum. 982 Portraits (exclusive of engravings and autographs) were acquired during Sir George Scharf's tenure of office.

The rule which the Trustees desire to lay down to themselves in either making purchases or receiving presents, is to look to the celebrity of the person represented rather than to the merit of the artist. They will attempt to estimate that celebrity without any bias to any political or religious party. Nor will they consider great faults and errors, even though admitted on all sides, as any sufficient ground for excluding any portrait which may be valuable as illustrating the civil, ecclesiastical, or literary history of the country. 2. No portrait of any person still living, except only of the reigning sovereign, and of his or her consort, shall be admitted. But this rule is not to be considered as applying to portraits of persons, some living and some deceased, in a group or series comprised in the same picture, and combined for one common object. 3. No portrait of any person deceased less than ten years shall be admitted, if so many as three of the Trustees shall personally, if present at the meeting, or within one fortnight by letter, state their dissent. 4. No portrait shall be admitted by donation, unless three-fourths, at least, of the Trustees present at a meeting shall approve it. 5. No modern copy of an original portrait shall be admitted. X GENERAL ARRANGEMENTS. The Collection of National Portraits has been arranged as follows : — On the TOP FLOOR the Portraits are arranged chronologically as far as possible, beginning in Rooms I and II at the N.W. angle of the building and ending in Room XI. The large portraits in Room XII are not arranged chronologically on account of their size. The collection of Royal Portraits from George I to Victoria will be found on the landings, numbered as Rooms XIII and XXIII. On the FIRST FLOOR the Portraits are grouped in classes, as far as they allow, Artists, the Drama, Statesmen, Divines, Eminent Women having separate rooms. In the EAST WING on the Upper Floor will be found Portraits of Literary Celebrities, the Navy and the Army, and Men of Science, and on the Lower Floor Works of Sculpture. On the Ground Floor a room is allotted to Portraits of Judges. On the Upper Basement will be found the large pictures of the House of Commons and the House of Lords, and a collection of engraved portraits of Serjeanta-at-Law. Visitors desiring to follow the historical sequence of the Portraits should ascend at once to the Top Floor. The numbers in parentheses, appended to the account of each portrait in the Catalogue and also on the Tablets attached to the Portraits, refer to the order of acquisition. %* The right and the left always mean those of the SPEC- TATOR facing the picture. The distinction his or her right or left hand (applied to the person represented) is always used with special care. The Measurements in the case of pictures are limited to that seen within the frame and known as Sight-Measure. The dates adopted in this edition of the CATALOGUE are derived from the latest authorities, especially the new Dictionary of National Biography. xi HOURS OF OPENING. The NATIONAL PORTRAIT GALLERY is open to the Public TREE — On Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Saturdays from 10 a.m. 1o January, February, November, December ... 4 p.m. March, October 5 p.m. April, May, June, July, August, September ... 6 p.m. And by payment of SIXPENCE — On Thursdays and Fridays from 10 a.m. to January, February, March, October, November, December 4 p.m. April, May, June, July, August, September ... 5 p.m. The Gallery will be open FREE on Sunday afternoons, March to- October, from 2.30 p.m. to 5.30 p.m., November to February (light permitting), from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. Parties from schools wishing to visit the Gallery for educational purposes can be admitted Free on Students' Days, on notice being given to the Secretary, stating the numbers of the party.

Sticks, umbrellas and parasols must be left in the Entrance Hall. Smoking is strictly prohibited. Dogs are on no account to be brought into the building. Children are not admitted unless under the charge of some respon- sible person. Bags and parcels are not to be brought into the building, and provisions are not to be consumed within the building. The Attendants have strict injunctions to see that these rules are enforced, and that proper decorum is observed by those visiting the building. xii STUDENTS are admitted to the Gallery free on Thursdays and Fridays under the following Regulations. KULES FOE ADMISSION OF STUDENTS. Students are admitted to copy in the National Portrait Gallery od Thursdays and Fridays, between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. (or 4 p.m. in winter), subject to the following rules : — 1. Bach applicant for admission as a student is required to write a letter to the Secretary, giving the name and address of a Beferee resident in London. 2. A ticket of admission will be available for six months from the date of issue, unless it is for any special reason withdrawn by authority. On the expiration of six months, or if lost or mislaid, it must be renewed by a fresh application for admission under the foregoing rules. 3. Students attending at the Gallery on Thursdays and Fridays are required to show their admission tickets and sign their names in a book kept for that purpose in the Entrance Hall. 4. Owing to the limited size of the Galleries only one person at a time can be permitted to copy any portrait on such a scale as to require an easel. 5. Under no circumstances will a student be allowed to touch the surface of a picture or work of sculpture, and the Attendant in charge will be strictly enjoined to enforce this rule, and to see that the seats, easels, &c. of students are kept at a sufficient distance from the pictures. 6. Glass cannot be removed from a picture, or' a picture taken down from the walls without special permission from the Director or the Officer in charge. 7. Students will be required to enter in a book, which will be kept for the purpose in the Gallery, the name of the portrait which they wish to copy, and the length of time which in their estimation it will take them to copy it. _ 8. In the case ol some portraits it may be necessary to restrict the time within which a student will have permission granted for com- pleting the copy. 9. No more than one copy of any particular portrait can be commenced without special leave from the Secretary. 10. Should more than one student be desirous of copying the same picture, they must do so in the order in which their names stand in the application book. On the expiration of the time originally estimated for by a student in copying a portrait, the next student on the list will be entitled to commence copying that portrait, bat a student may obtain extension of time upon applying to the Secretary. Xlll 11. Should a student engaged in copying a portrait be absent on any Thursday or Friday up to 1 p.m., without giving notice, the next student on the list for copying the same portrait will be entitled to commence work and to continue until the copy is completed. Places forfeited by non-attendance cannot be resumed without special permission, except by a fresh entry in the application book. 12. No copy, finished or unfinished, can be removed from the Gallery without a pass from the Attendant in charge. All copies must be removed from the Gallery by their owners within a fortnight of completion. 13. Chairs or stools will be provided for students in the Gallery, but not easels. Easels, drawing-boards, &c. can be stowed for the convenience of students on application to the Attendant in charge of the room in which the Student is working. 14. Palettes and brushes are not to be cleaned in the public lavatories, separate accommodation is provided for this purpose, information on which will be supplied by the Attendants. 15. A scrupulous attention to order and cleanliness is expected from students. Neglect of this on the part of a student may involve the withdrawal of the card of admission. 16. In the event of a portrait, which a student is copying, being required for photography, or any other purpose, the student will, as far as possible, receive due notice of the fact beforehand. 17. In consequence of the limited size of many of the Galleries, and the small size of many of the portraits exhibited, student s are expected to arrange their easels, stools, &c, so as to give as little inconvenience as possible to the public or to any other student, who may be copying a neighbouring portrait. 18. In the Galleries where there are bays formed by projecting screens, not more than two persons with easels can be permitted to . work at the same time. xiv REGULATIONS FOE PHOTOGRAPHING, 1. No person is permitted to take any photograph within the National Portrait Gallery without having obtained permission from the Director. 2. Applications for permission to take photographs within the National Portrait Gallery must be made in writing to the Director at least two days before the day on which it is proposed that the photograph should be taken. 3. Any person or business firm, wishing to send an operator to take photographs in the National Portrait Gallery must apply beforehand by letter for the permission to do so, stating the purpose for which the photograph is required. Permission will not be given to operators to take photographs on their own account. 4. The name of each portrait with that of its painter, and the register number, as given in the official catalogue, should be clearly stated in the letter of application. 5. On receipt of the form of permission, the photographer should ascertain from the Attendant in charge of the Gallery, in which the object to be photographed is situated, the circumstances under which it will be possible to take the photograph in question. This should be done not later than the day before that fixed for operations. 6. Photographs can only be taken, except by special permission, on Thursdays and Fridays. 7. On Thursdays and Fridays, if previous arrangements have been made the operator can commence work at 9 a.m., application being made' on arrival to the Head Attendant in charge of the Gallery. 8. Should the operator not have commenced work before 10 a.m. on Thursdays and Fridays, any student/, who may have permission to copy the object in question on that day, cannot be disturbed, if already at work. An operator, however, who has commenced work before 10 a.m. will be entitled to proceed within reasonable limits as to time until his work is completed. 9. Pictures cannot be taken down from the walls without special permission. 10 Photographers are not permitted to touch the surface of any picture or object, which they may be photographing, under any -pretext whatsoever. XV 11. Glass cannot be removed from a picture except by special per- mission, and, should this be granted and any expense involved in removing and replacing the glass, the applicant for permission will be required to employ the usual Gallery agent and to defray the cost. 12. A photographic studio is situated in the upper part of the east wing. Photographers desiring to use this studio can do so by special arrangement, so far as the requirements of the Gallery permit. 13. In such cases where copyright exists, permission to photograph can only be given by the Director on receiving himself a letter of consent from the owner of the copyright in question. 14. It is forbidden to introduce into the Gallery without permission any sort of photographic apparatus, and the Attendants and Police have instructions to see that this regulation is strictly enforced. xv i PORTRAITURE. It is impossible for me to conceive a work which ought to be more interesting to the present age than that which exhibits before our eyes our " fathers as they lived," accompanied with such memorials of their lives and characters as enable us to compare their persons and coun- tenances with their sentiments and actions. I will enlarge no more upon the topic because I am certain that it requires not the voice of an obscure individual to point out to the British public the merit of a Collection, which at once satisfies the imagination and the understand- ing, shewing us by the pencil how the most distinguished of our ancestors looked, moved, and dressed : and informs us by the pen how they thought, acted, lived, and died. — Letter from Sir Walter Scott, Abbotsford, 2oth March, 1828, on the appearance of Lodge's Portraits of Illustrious Personages of Great Britain. I have observed that a reader seldom peruses a book with pleasure till he knows whether the writer of it be a black or a fair man, of a mild or choleric disposition, married or a bachelor ; with other parti- culars of a like nature, that conduce very much to the right under- standing of an author. — Addison, first lines of the Spectator. Painting gives us not only the Persons, but the Characters of great men. The hair of the Head and Mien in general, gives strong indica- tions of the Mind, and illustrates what the Historian says more expressly and particularly. Let a man read a Character in my Lord Clarendon (and, certainly, never was there a better Painter in that kind") he will find it improved by seeing a Picture of the same Person by Van Dyck. — Jonathan Richardson, " Essay on the Theory of Painting," 1715. Our painters take no care to transmit to posterity the names of the persons whom they represent ; through which negligence so many excellent pieces come after a while to be dispersed amongst brokers and upholsterers, who expose them to the streets in every dirty and infamous corner. — John Evelyn to Samuel Pepyn, August 12th. 1689. XVII We never read of the actions of any distinguished individual without feeling a desire to see a resemblance of his person. We often imagine that we can trace the character of the man in the expression of his countenance : and we retain a more correct recollection of his actions by keeping in our minds a lively impression of his general appearance . — Governors of the British Institution in the preface to the Catalogue of their first exhibition of Histor ical Portraits, held in Pall Mall, 1820. In all my poor historical investigations it has been, and always is, one of the most primary wants to procure a bodily likeness of the personage inquired after — a good portrait if such exists ; failing that, even an indifferent if sincere one. In short, any representation made by a faithful human creature of that face and figure which he saw with his eyes, and which I can never see with mine, is now valuable to me, and much better than none at all. It has always struck me that historical portrait galleries far transcend in worth all other kinds of national collections of pictures whatever ; that, in fact, they ought to exist in every country as among the most popular and cherished national possessions. Lord Chancellor Clarendon made a brave attempt in that kind for England, but his house and gallery fell asunder in a sad way. — Tliomas Carlyle, quoted by Earl Stanhope. When the world of pleasure palls, When a voice within thee calls To a larger, fuller life, Nobler aims, more worthy strife, Here, in such a pensive mood, Half -aspiring, half -subdued, Come with me and learn to trace All the glories of thy race — All that art and fame can give- Making bygone greatness live. — On the National Portrait Gallery.

This special favourite of Queen Elizabeth was the son of Walter Devereux, first Earl of Essex. Born at Netherwood, in Herefordshire, and educated at Trinity College, Cambridge. His first appearance at Court was made in 1584, under the patronage of his stepfather, the Earl of Leicester. In the following year, when only 18 years of age he was summoned to attend the Earl of Leicester, who was Captain General in the Low Countries. He received the commission of a General of the Horse. His conduct during this campaign, and especially at the Battle of Zutphen, won him " golden opinions," and on his return to England in 1587 he suddenly found himself raised to the post of Master of the Horse. On the occasion of assembling the forces at Tilbury in 1588, Essex received the Order of the Garter. The death of Leicester in 1588 placed Essex foremost among the rank of those most favoured by the Sovereign, a position which he for a while imperilled by marrying in 1590 the daughter of Sir Francis Walsinc- ham a ad widow of Sir Philip Sidney. His expeditions to France and Spam, the capture of Cadiz, his subsequent encounter with the Spanish fleet, and his conduct as Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, alike afford instances of his candour, generosity, rashness, and personal bravery. He had, in 1597, been raised to the high rank of Earl Marshal of England. In 1600 he took the lead in a foolish plot against the Oueen ; was deprived of all his offices, except that of Master of the Horse ; and in February 1601 brought to trial in Westminster Hall, found guilty of rebellion, and beheaded within the precincts of the Tower of London.

He was raised to the peerage as Baron Exmouth, with a pension of 2,000Z. a year for his long and eminent services.

Although opposed to monarchy he was not prepared for the extreme views entertained by the par- liament ; he always treated King Charles with leniency, and absented himself from his trial. But his lady was present, and made herself conspicuous by her interruption of the proceedings, declaring in a loud voice that her husband was not there in person, that he would never sit among them, and that they did him wrong to name him as a sitting commissioner, and, when in course of the impeachment, the expression " all the good people of England " was used, she indignantly exclaimed " Not half the people ; Oliver Cromwell is a traitor."

In the 133 ministry of Lord Rockingham, which succeeded in the spring of 1782, Fox became Foreign Secretary, but he resigned that post in the July following, on the death of Lord Rockingham. Next year he formed his celebrated coalition with Lord North, these two statesmen return- ing together (as joint Secretaries of State) to office.

Having made many contributions to literature in various ways, he became acquainted with John Henry Newman, Charles Kingsley, Arthur H.

After his marriage Froude devoted himself to historical work, and was engaged for twenty years on his ' History of England ' in the sixteenth century, published, at intervals, from 1856 to 1870.

A bust in terra-cotta, modelled by Louis Francois Roubillac. Born in St. Bartholomew's Close, London. The style of this most original painter is too well known to require any description. He was 13497 M 2 180 the son of a schoolmaster from Westmorland, who resided in the Old Bailey. At an early age Hogarth was apprenticed to Ellis Gamble, a silversmith in Cranbourne Alley and was employed during that time in engraving arms and cyphers upon pieces of plate. He was the first artist who conceived and executed the idea of representing a series of adventures on canvas, in which the fortune of one character was con- ducted from the cradle to the grave, so that his pictures may be said to have all the interest of a novel. He met with considerable success, moreover, as a portrait painter. The ' Harlot's Progress ' was painted in 1734, and the ; Rake's Progress' appeared in the following year. The ' Marriage a la Mode,' a series of pictures now in the National Gallery, was published by engravings in 1745. Appointed King's Serjeant painter, 1757.

Born in a small village near Glasgow, and the youngest son of a farmer, he remained for 17 years without either education or any definite pursuit. An opportunity to learn cabinet-making having occurred, John Hunter spent three years in the manufacture of chairs and tables. At the age of 20 he pro- ceeded to London to join his brother William, who was there in practice as a surgeon. The manual skill which John Hunter had acquired as a carpenter seems to have enabled him to render his brother valuable assistance in the dissecting-room, and to have formed one of his many qualifications for his own distinguished career. In 1749 he studied under William Cheselden at Chelsea Hospital ; in 1751 he went to St. Bartholomew's Hospital ; and in 1768 he became surgeon to St. George's. Gradually he formed a museum to illustrate com- parative anatomy, physiology, and natural history ; this museum was purchased, after his death, by the Government and presented to the College of Surgeons. Buried in St. Martin s-in-the- Fields, and later in Westminster Abbey. The original picture by Sir Joshua Reynolds is now in the Council Room of the College of Surgeons. Purchased by the Trustees, May 1859. Seated figure to below the knees, face three-quarters to the right. Dimensions — 55£ ins. by 43£ ins. (77) 191 William HUNTINGTON, S.S. 1745-1813. Painted in 1803 by Domenico Pellegrini Methodist preacher. Born near Cranbrook. This remarkable man sprang from the humblest ranks of society, and had no advantage of early education, his boyhood being spent in menial service. His original name was Hunt, and this he afterwards, from a fancy of his own, changed into Huntington. He subsequently appended the mysterious letters S.S. to his name, and afforded the following reason in explanation : — li As I cannot get at D.D. for want of cash, neither " can I get at M.A. for the want of learning, therefore I am compelled " to fly for refuge to S.S., by which I mean Sinner Saved." Endowed with great powers of mind and a strain of natural eloquence, he began his career as a preacher at Sunbury. In London shortly after- wards he found an extensive field for his labours as a minister. He died at Tunbridge Wells. The published works of Huntington are very numerous.

In 1833 Pusey joined Keble and Newman in the ' Tractarian ' or ' Oxford Movement,' for the revival of certain doctrines, and from him the movement was sometime known as ' Puseyism.' Subsequently he became more definitely its leader, and in June 1843 he was condemned for heresy by the Vice-Chancellor of the University for a sermon on ' The Holy Eucharist.' For many years Pusey upheld his views, and in the interest of the Church came into direct conflict with the latitudinarian views which began to prevail especially at Oxford. Unlike his friends, Newman and Manning, Pusey declined to secede from the Anglican Church, although he never relaxed in his efforts to bring about a re-union between that Church and the Church of Rome. In addition to his position in this contro- versy, Pusey was one of the profoundest of scholars and the most successful of professors. He was buried in Christchurch Cathedral, Oxford.

His first essay in literature 'On the Malay Nation,' was published in 1809. Upon the earnest representation made by him of the advantages that would accrue to the English Government from tbe possession of Java, then in the hands of the Dutch, whose country had become annexed to France, an expedition was fitted out in 1811, and the settlement being reduced, Raffles was appointed Lieutenant-Governor. He was recalled in 1816, shortly before the island was restored to the Dutch as an independent power. His ' History of Java ' appeared in 1817.

Served in France in the Huguenot army, and in 1580 destroyed the Spanish settlement at Smerwick in Ireland. His first introduction to the notice of Queen Elizabeth is said to have been due to his having thrown down his velvet cloak for her to walk upon. He rose rapidly in the queen's favour, and received the honour of knighthood in 1584. He was justly esteemed as one of the most accom- plished and adventurous spirits of his age, and he greatly distinguished himself by his gallantry in several naval conflicts and expeditions against the Spaniards. He planned the colony on the mainland of America, which in honour of the Maiden Queen was named Virginia. He is also popularly supposed to have introduced tobacco and the potato into England. After the death of Elizabeth in 1603 his fortunes fell. He was imprisoned for 12 years in the Tower, during which period he composed his celebrated ' History of the World.' Finally, after some other vicissitudes of fortune, he was beheaded in Old Palace Yard, October 1618. Purchased by the Trustees, March 1857.

Ray, or Wray, as he at one time wrote his name, was described by Haller as the greatest botanist in the memory of man, and his writings on animals were pronounced by Cuvier to be the foundation of all modern zoology. The most important character of the works of Ray is the precise and clear method of classification which he adopted. He was the son of a blacksmith, and born near Braintree, in Essex. Being 333 designed for holy orders, he entered at Catherine Hall, Cambridge, and was subsequently elected a fellow of Trinity College. His first botanical attempt was a Catalogue of Cambridge Plants, published in 1660 ; and in the close of the same year Ray was ordained both deacon and priest. In 1667 he was admitted a fellow of the Royal Society. Besides his numerous writings on Natural History, he published a collection of Proverbs which appeared in 1672, and has been often reprinted. He wrote also several works on divinity. Ray married late in life, and died at his native place, Black-Notley, in Essex. Transferred from the British Museum, June 1879.

By general consent the greatest portrait painter England has pro- duced. Was born at Plympton in Devonshire ; there he was educated at the Grammar School by his father, the Rev. Samuel Reynolds. In 1740 he was sent to London, and placed under the tuition of Hudson, the most eminent portrait painter of his time. In 1749 he accom- panied Captain, afterwards Lord, Keppel to Gibraltar, Algiers, and Minorca, and from Minorca he proceeded to Leghorn, Rome, Florence, and Venice. In 1752 he returned to England, and settled in St. Martin's Lane, at that time a favourite resort of London artists. He became the intimate friend of Dr. Johnson, Burke, and other eminent men, and, in conjunction with the former, established ' The Club' which still exists. On the foundation of the Royal Academy in 1768 Reynolds was nominated President, and he received the honour of knighthood in the same year. From this period, and on every occasion of the distribution of prizes, he delivered those discourses on paintirig and the study of art which to this day form the favourite manual of students in this country. Between the opening of the first exhibition in 1769 and the year 1790 Reynolds exhibited no less than 244 pictures. He died, unmarried, at his residence in Leicester Fields, and was interred in St. Paul's Cathedral. This portrait was painted before his visit to Italy. Purchased by the Trustees, May 1858.

Painted {unfinished) by George Frederick Watts, R.A. African statesman. Born at Newport, Bishop's Stortford, Essex, fourth son of the vicar there. Studied for a time at Oriel College. Oxford, but was compelled through delicate health to reside in South Africa. He then settled at Kimberley diamond mines and eventually brought about the amalgamation of the diamond mines in the De Beers Company which brought him enormous wealth. Rhodes entered Cape politics in 1881, and devoted himself to the ideal of a great united self-governing South Africa from the Cape to the Zambesi under the British flag, including the South African republics then existing. In 1889, Rhodes formed the British South African Com- pany, which obtained an Imperial Charter to occupy and administer Matabeleland. forming the great tract of country to which he gave the name of Rhodesia. In 1890, he became premier of Cape Colony, but the unfortunate raid of Dr. Jameson into the Transvaal in 1895 lost him the confidence of the Dutch in South Africa and of the Government at home. Rhodes then resigned the premiership and devoted himself to the development of Rhodesia. When, as he anti- cipated, the British Government in 1899 became involved in a war with the South African republics, he threw himself into Kimberley, and assisted in its defence. Having recovered the confidence to some extent of the Government at home and in South Africa, he seemed destined to achieve still more, but was carried off by premature death at Groote Schuur near Cape Town. His body was interred in the Matoppo Hills overlooking Rhodesia. He played perhaps the most striking part in the history of modern British Imperial development. By his will he left large benefactions to the University of Oxford. Presented, July 1905, by the executors of Mr. G. F. Watts, R.A. To the waist, face three-quarters to the left.

He was at first articled to a scrivener, but in a short time became a pupil of John Riley, an excellent portrait painter. Richardson in 1715 published his ' Essay on the Theory of Painting,' the perusal of which, in his boyhood, is said to have first excited Sir Joshua Reynolds' fondness for his art. Richardson was the instructor of Hudson, who became the master of Reynolds, which enabled Malone to observe that he was Sir Joshua's "pictorial grandfather."

Here, in 1763, Watt commenced those researches into the properties of steam and improve- ments in machinery which have rendered his name immortal In 1767 he was employed in surveying the Forth and Clyde Canal, and the Caledonian Canal in 1773, having previously, in 1768, given up the occupation of instrument maker, and professed himself a civil engineer. The first patent for his steam-engine is dated 1769. In 1774 he migrated to Birmingham and entered into partnership with Matthew Boulton at Soho. Buried at Handsworth, near Birmingham.

On his return he was again successful m a second competition for decorative painting at Westminster Always actuated by an intense desire to develope a true love and appreciation for art and an understanding of its moral import, Watts devoted his life to trying, in his own words, "every means of stimulating cultivating, and popularizing the noblest expressions of art, and thereby, "to urge man to higher thoughts and things" many or. his most important paintings were painted by him as a gift to tne nation, including the series of portraits of great men now in the 13497 2 c 2 404 National Portrait Gallery.

Born at Nottingham. Being of too weakly a constitution to follow his father's occupation as a butcher, Kirke White was removed, at the age of 14, from school to a stocking-loom, to learn the business of a hosier. The loom was altogether uncongenial to him, and ere long he was removed to a lawyer's office in Nottingham. In his 15th year he had become a contributor to various periodical publications, and prepared a volume of poetry, which was dedicated to the Duchess of Devonshire, and published early in 1804. At length, through the generosity of Mr. Wilberf orce, he was admitted a student of St. J ohn's College, Cambridge. Here the ardour with which Kirke White pur- sued his duties overtasked his delicate frame. His health declined quickly and he died at Cambridge. A selection of his poems was published by his friend Mr. Southey in 1807, which has been frequently reprinted. This is the original model for the medallion which was placed with a tablet over the poet's grave in All Saints Church, Cambridge, in 1819. Presented by Francis Boott, Esq., M.D., February 1860.

He was ordained deacon by Benson, Bishop of Gloucester. He was gifted with a voice of unusual modulation, and so powerful that he could make 30,000 people hear him at once in the open air. His fluency and command of extemporaneous language were also of the highest order. On all these grounds his preaching produced an extraordinary popular impression. The success of the Wesleys in North America induced him to sail for that country, which in the course of his life he fre- quently revisited. He was regarded as next to John Wesley, the principal founder of the Methodists, though he was more Calvinistic in his tone. During his seventh visit to America, he died at Newbury- port, near Boston, where he was buried. Purchased by the Trustees, August 1861. Half-length, in a pulpit, preaching to a small congregation.

Born in Clerkenwell, the son of a wealthy distiller. Educated at Hertford, and at the University of Leyden, where he attained distinction by his classical learning. He sat in Parliament for Aylesbury in 1757 and 1761.

In 1805, when in his twentieth year, Wilkie first visited London, and became a student at the Royal Academy. In 1806 he completed a picture of 'The Village Politicians' for the Earl of Mansfield, which laid the foundation of his fame, and became the first of a splendid series, perhaps unequalled in one peculiar branch of art. His impaired health led him, in 1824, to travel to Italy and Spain, and he returned to England in 1828. In 1830 he succeeded Sir Thomas Lawrence as Painter in Ordinary to His Majesty, and in 1836 received the honour of knighthood.

Her first appearance in, London was in 1740 at Covent Garden, as Sylvia in the ' Recruiting Officer.' In 1742 she revisited Dublin in company with Garrick, then young and unmarried, with extraordinary success. Margaret Woffing- ton excelled in male characters, and shone in the higher walks of comedy. She is described as the most beautiful and the least vain woman of her day. Whatever character she had! to play, she identified] herself with it. In tragedy she was less successful. She was struck 419 with paralysis, May 3rd, 1757, whilst speaking the epilogue to ' As You Like It,' and quitted the stage for ever. Buried at Teddington.

Entering the military service at an early age, he was present at the battle of Laufeldt, and displayed such discretion and judgment during the conduct of the expedition against Rochefort that he was selected by Pitt in defiance of all rules of seniority to command in North America. In 1758 Wolfe joined Boscawen and Amherst in the reduction of Louisburg, and on his return the following year was at once entrusted with an expedition against Quebec, at that time the capital of the French in Canada. On the 13th of September the English had made themselves masters of the Heights of Abraham, which commanded the town, and after a most gallant contest the French gave way. Montcalm, their commander, was killed ; and Wolfe also, being severely wounded, expired on the field in the very moment of victory. His body was brought to England, and interred at Greenwich.

Foxe, Bishop of Winchester, introduced Wolsey to the young King Henry VIII. So rapidly did he rise in the favour of his sovereign that he became Archbishop of York in 1514, and in 1515 succeeded Archbishop Warham as Lord Chancellor. In the latter year he was also promoted by the Pope to the dignity of Cardinal. His retinue surpassed that of royalty itself. York Place (now Whitehall), his chief residence, was furnished with the greatest splendour. He built Hampton Court Palace, which he afterwards presented to the King, his master, and founded Christ Church, Oxford, which was first known by the name, derived from himself, of < Cardinal's College.' Owing to the influence of Anne Boleyn and his rivals Wolsey fell into disgrace and was suddenly deprived of power. 421 His goods were seized ; and on his way from York to London to meet his trial, he fell sick at Leicester Abbey, where he expired and was buried.

In 1807 he became an Alderman of London, and served as Sheriff in 1809. In 1815 he was elected Lord Mayor, and during his tenure of office suppressed a dangerous riot in Spa Fields. For these services he was re-elected Lord Mayor in 1816. During this second term of office he was elected member for the City of London, which he continued to represent until his death. Wood was an advocate of the cause of Queen Caroline, which in 1820 he sup- ported in public. He also acted as Trustee for H.R.H. the Duke- of Kent, and for his services in this capacity he was created a baronet by Queen Victoria in November 1837, this being the first title conferred by the Queen after her accession.

From these pursuits he was for a time diverted by a taste for the theatrical profession, and performed several characters in Scotland with success. He returned to the metropolis about 1772, and became editor of the ' London Packet.' He was appointed to the double office of printer and editor of 'The Morning Chronicle,' which he continued to fill till the year 1789, when he commenced a paper on his own account, called 'The Diary.' His memory was wonderfully retentive. Aided by this advantage he undertook for the first time in newspaper writing, to give a detailed account of the proceedings in Parliament on the same night. Without taking a note to assist his memory, he was known to write 16 columns of the debates in as many hours. This innovation, once established, led to a division of labour, and to the system of reporting by shorthand as now adopted by all the London newspapers. He died at his house in Queen Street, Westminster, and was buried in St. Margaret's. Presented, February 1864, by Henry Dick Woodfall, Esq. To the waist, at a table, face three-quarters to the left.

Woollett's first knowledge of the method of engraving was _ derived from an artist named Tinney, but his effective and original style was entirely the result of his own natural genius. He studied at the St. Martin's Lane Academy, and was largely employed by Alderman Boydell. In 1766 Woollett became a member of the Incorporated Society of Artists, of which he held the secretaryship for several years. He was appointed historical engraver to the King. Hia finest works were the ' Death of Wolfe ' and ' The Battle of La Hogue,' after West, and ' Niobe,' after Wilson. Woollett died in Upper Brook Street, Rathbone Place, and was buried in old St. Pancras churchyard. There is a monument to him in the cloisters of Westminster Abbey.

After taking his B.A. degree, he left college in 1791, and spent several months in France, at Paris, Orleans, and Blois. The scenes of the French Revolution left a deep impression on his mind. In 1808 Words- worth removed to Allanbank, in the neighbourhood of Grasmere, and resided there till 1813, from which period he spent the remainder of his life at Rydal. His great philosophical poem of the ' Excursion ' was published in 1814. ' The White Doe of Bylstone ' appeared in the year following, and 'Peter Bell' in 1819.

On the fall of Essex from royal favour, Wotton left England, and settled at Venice, where he wrote ' The State of Christendom.' After the death of Elizabeth, Wotton returned to England and was received by James I., who appointed him ambassador at Venice, where he continued to be occupied in diplomatic duties for about twenty years. He lost the royal favour through a humorous definition of the duties of an ambassador, but in 1623 obtained from the King the congenial post of Provost of Eton College, which he held until his death there. He was buried in the college chapel. After his death a number of his writings were pub- lished under tbe title ' Reliquiae Wottonianas,' with a memoir by Isaak Walton.

Engraved from the life hy Crispin Van der Passe. A group of the eight principal conspirators, viz. : Guy Fawkes, Robert Catesby, Thomas Percy, John Wright, Christopher Wright, Robert Winter, Thomas Winter, and Thomas Bates. Guy FAWKES (born 1570) was a member of the old Yorkshire family of Fawkes. His father was Registrar of the Consistory Court of York Cathedral ; and he was educated at the free school of that city. Though born of Protestant parents, he was probably brought up under the influence of his stepfather, who was a devout Roman Catholic. After dissipating the small fortune which he inherited, he enlisted in the Spanish army engaged, under the Archduke Albert, in Flanders. There he made the acquaintance of many exiled English Catholics, and being selected by Catesby and Winter, the originators of the plot, as a suitable instrument for carrying it into execution, was brought by the latter to England in April 1604. Robert CATESBY (born 1573) was the son and heir of Sir William Catesby, who possessed large estates in Northamptonshire, War- wickshire, and Oxfordshire, and who became a Roman Catholic in 1598. He was educated at Gloucester Hall (now Worcester College), Oxford. He took part in the insurrection of the Earl of Essex in 1601, and in various conspiracies projected by the discontented Roman Catholics during the next two years. Catesby was the originator of the plot, and first confided his ideas to Winter and Wright in the early part of 1604. Thomas PERCY, born in 1560, was great grandson of Henry, fourth Earl of Northumberland, and steward to the ninth earl at Alnwick Castle. He was early in life a convert to the Catholic faith, and, before the death of Elizabeth, had been sent on a mission to King James, from whom he obtained promises of toleration for his co-feligionists ; when, on the accession of James to the English throne, these promises were not fulfilled, Percy was much exasperated and readily engaged himself in the conspiracy. John and Christ opher WRIGHT, brothers, were members of -a good Yorkshire family, and old friends of Catesby ; like him they were 430 converts to Catholicism, aDd had taken part in the rebellion of the Earl of Essex. Their sister was married to Thomas Percy. Robert WINTER was the head of an old Worcestershire family,, and resided at Huddington, where he had large estates ; by marriage, the Winters were related to Catesby and Tresham. He was at first strongly opposed to the plot. Thomas WINTER, the younger brother of Robert, had served for some years in Flanders against the King of Spain, and was afterwards in the employment of Lord Monteagle ; he had shared in all the Catholic intrigues that were started during the latter years of Queen Elizabeth, and was one of the first to join with Catesby in the plot. Thomas BATES was an old servant of Catesby, and was made an accomplice in the plot at an early stage of the proceedings. The state- ments which he made when examined after his arrest first implicated; Garnet and other Jesuit priests in the conspiracy. Upon the announcement of the arrest of Fawkes on the eve of the 5th of November, the rest of the conspirators fled from London, but were- overtaken at Holbeach, in Staffordshire, where Catusby, Percy, and the two Wrights were killed after a desperate defence. Robert Winter and Bates, with Sir Everard Digby and John Grant, were executed in St. Paul's Churchyard on January 31, 1606 ; and Guy Fawkes and Thomas Winter, with Ambrose Rook wood and Robert Keyes, on the following day in Palace Yard, Westminster.
