PROCtEDINGS Of THE 



Museum at Stockholm ; and the third lias been presented to the 

 Societ}' by our Treasurer, and is placed in the Library (see the 

 Letter on p. 58). 



TIio result of this inqnir}' shows that there are at least eight 

 original and independent portraits of Linnaeus, to one or other 

 of which all tlic published portraits can be traced. Hieseare : — 

 1, tlie full-length painting by Hoffmann in 1737, when Linnaeus 

 was thirty years of age ; 2, the engraving by Ehrensverd in 

 1740; 3 & 4, the pencil sketclies by Kehn in 1747, the one a 

 bust in profile, the otler a full-length ; 5, the half-length oil 

 portrait at ITammarby by Scheffel in 1755 ; 6, the wax medal- 

 lion, also at Hammarby, by Inlander in 1773; 7, the full-face oil 

 portrait at Slockholm by Krafit in 1774 ; and S, the oil painting 

 at Stockholm by Eoslin in ] 775. 



The relation of the various published portraits which I have 

 examined to these originals will lie more ajiparent from the 

 following table.
