 Englifh edition. 



The portraits of Sir Nicholas Bacon at 

 Woburn^ of Charles Howard, earl of Not- 

 tingham, lord high admiral, at * Hampton- 

 court, and of Sir Francis Walfingham, in my 

 pofTefTion, all three engraved among the il- 

 luftrious heads i and the pidlure of queen 

 Elizabeth's gigantic porter at Kenfington, 

 were painted by Zucchero; here too he 

 drew his own portrait, and copied the works 

 of Holbein at the Steelyard as I have men- 

 tioned. A chapel at Roehampton belong- 

 ing to Mr. Bagnols was faid to be painted 

 by him. What other works he performed 

 here I do not find ; f probably not many -, 

 his flay was not long ; hiftoric fubjedls were 



* There too by his hand v/as a piifliire of Venus paf- 

 fing fentence oa the boar that had killed Adonis. It 

 was fold for 25/. at the fale of king Charles's collec- 

 tion. 



f Vertue mentions a portrait of a marquis of Somer- 

 fet ; but there was no fuch perfon in that reign. At 

 Wilton is a Nativity by Taddeo and Frederic, and two 

 fmall portraits of Francis II. and Charles IX. of France, 

 but thefe were not painted in England. Mr. Pennant 

 mentions a head of fir Lionel Talmache hy Zucchero.
