^{page 81 note a} Compare a description of the portrait of Mary of Austria, given in my Catalogue of the Pictures belonging to the Society of Antiquaries, contributed to the “Fine Arts Quarterly Review,” vol. 2, p. 326, No. xxvi.

^{page 82 note a} Mr. Bale's Miniature was No. 1935 of the Catalogue of the Loan Exhibition at South Kensington in 1862, and No. 1645 of the Exhibition of Miniatures in 1864.

^{page 82 note b} This peculiar shaped head-dress appears to be exclusively English. So far, at least, as my experience goes, I have never once met with it on the portrait of a foreign personage. It forms a regular pentagonal frame round the face.

^{page 85 note a} Written on the back “Anna Roper Thomæ Mori filia. W. Hollar pinxit post Holbein 1652.”

^{page 88 note a} In the catalogue of Henry the Eighth's pictures, mention is made of a diptych exhibiting the King and Jane Seymour. It is thus entered “Henry theight Kynge and Jane Queene, a table like a booke.” What has become of this curious picture is not known.

^{page 88 note b} Since the above was sent to press our Director, A. W. Franks, Esq., has brought to my notice a leaden medallion preserved in the British Museum. It is possibly a cast from a carving in hone-stone, or wood, and measures 1½ inch in diameter; the sculpture is in rather high relief. The type of the figure corresponds with that of the seated Queen in the Family group, No. 9, of these notes. The face is turned slightly sideways, and rather looking up towards the left. The letters A. R. in the field, and the legend “The Moost Happi Anno 1534,” round the margin, show that this figure must have been intended for Anne Boleyne. This representation adds rather to the perplexity of the subject, but goes far to support the opinion which I advanced of No. 3, Mr. Bale's miniature, being in reality Anne Boleyne. The letters Æ. likewise appear in gold on a black medallion hanging round the neck of an enthroned Queen, attended by a herald, councillor and ladies, on a highly finished initial letter, page 20, of the Black Book belonging to the Order of the Garter at Windsor. The date on the illuminated border of the first page of the volume is 1534, and corresponds exactly with the period of Anne Boleyne. There is not much character in her countenance, but, nevertheless, it deserves mention in a collection of notes such as the present.
