Extract

I beg to address you a few notes which have been suggested by the perusal of your interesting paper upon the contemporaries and successors of Holbein. It is not easy to over-estimate the value of the researches which you have brought to bear on the subject. The termination of Holbein's career, 1543, as shown by Mr. Black's discovery of his will, and confirmed by the Director's investigations, furnishes us with one of the most important turning-points in the early history of art in England that have been met with for many years.
