EDOUARD ZAMACOIS, (deceased.) Medals, 1867, 1868 and 1870. The Cavalier’s Repose. The works of Zamacois are becoming exceedingly rare, and those collectors who have not already secured one, had better avail themselves of the opportunities as they offer, as there will soon be none upon the market. 25. T. BUCHANAN READ, (deceased.) The Lady of Shalott. “ Out upon the wharves they came, Knight and burgher, lord and dame, And round the prow they read her name,— The Lady of Shalott. “ Who is this ? and what is here ? And in the lighted palace near Died the sound of royal cheer ; And they crossed themselves for fear, All the knights at Camelot. “ But Lancelot mused a little space ; He said, ‘ She has a lovely face; God in his mercy lend her grace, The Lady of Shalott.’ ” — Tennyson. * 9 26.

A splendid picture, painted in the style of Florent Willems. 54. JAMES TISSOT, London. Medal, 1866. The Abduction. Tissot, though often represented in this country, has probably never been so by so splendid a production from his pencil. By art critics and collectors, both abroad and at home, this is con¬ sidered his most famous picture. It is really fascinating. F. LIARDO, Rome. Sociably Inclined. A picture, that by its humor must interest both old and young, and by its art those who love art. ARNALDI CORRODI, Rome. The Rest at Noon.

VAN LEEMPUTTEN, Brussels. The Farm Yard. 407. FERDINAND ROYBET, Paris. Medal, 1866. Still Life.

One of the most brilliant specimens of this artist ever exhibited. The large painting, by the same artist, is in the Louvre. 221. P. SERATRICE, Rome. The Siesta. In the style which made Zamacois so famous, it is so well done that it will commend itself to amateurs. 39 222. LADISLAS BAKALOWICZ, Paris. Curiosity.

Feeding Rabbits. 226. ALBERT LAMBRON, Paris. Cup and Balls. 227 . MILNE RAMSEY. Objects of Art. One of this artist’s most important works. 40 228. VICTOR TORTEZ, Paris. The Rivals. A subject interesting, and treated in a peculiarly attractive and forcible manner. The page in grey tights certainly seems de¬ termined that the other gentleman shall not pay attention in the direction of his thoughts, if he can help it. 229. J. A. NEUHUYS, Brussels. The Portrait. This splendid painter ranks with Florent Willems, and holds high place with him in the world of art. This is a superb work. 230. WILLIAM HART, New York. Summer. 231. Autumn. 232.

A perfectly magnificent painting, and one worthy of the highest laudations. Only the master could so truthfully and conscien¬ tiously depict this phase of nature. This picture would cost, in M. Daubigny’s studio, 20,000 francs, and is the finest specimen of the artist in this country. C. PITTARA, Rome. 237a. Twilight on the Roman Campagna. One of the most superb efforts of this great painter ever shown in this country. 4 42 238. OTTO WEBER, Rome. Medals, 1864 and 1869. Treading out the Wheat.

MEYERHEIM, Berlin. Winter Scene in Antwerp. There is no painter who surpasses Meyerheim in these subjects. 240. B. C. KOEKKOEK, (deceased.) On the Zuyder Zee. The good works of the great Iveokkeok have become of late years exceedingly rare, and dealers even experience great difficulty in obtaining a specimen. This unusually good one is presented with the hope, that those interested in the best foreign art, will not permit it to sell below its value, for it would be difficult to replace with one so excellent. It has been likened to efforts by the old Dutch masters. 241. 242. 243. F. HOWLAND, Paris. J. LERAY, Paris. Crossing the Brook. Waiting. A beautiful pair of art gems. » The Bather. 43 244.
