DESCRIPTIVE DATA

object type: After the painting by Sir Anthony van Dyck (1599-1641). Half-length portrait of an old man with long, white/grey hair, curled at the ends, and full beard, facing left and looking up to the right. He wears a cloak and rests his left hand on a book stood on its end.

NOTES
-----
type: history note
value: VanSittart gave 1,485 engravings to the Fitzwilliam Museum in 1879 and this mezzotint was probably included within this group. The number written in pen and ink on the verso presumably relates to Vansittart's own cataloguing system and that written in graphite to some kind of count by curators at the time of the acquisition.
