A SIXTEENTH CENTURY NOSE 



The nose, rough in outHne and broad at the top, was common to Nordics in the sixteenth 

 century, and by no means rare in the seventeenth. Here the upper eyelid is more like 

 a modern, but the eye is by no means as deep set as is usual today. The portrait is that of 

 Nathaniel Byfield, 1653-1733. (Fig. 16.)
