Norwich Castle Museum. 107 
Museum in recognition of the services of Mr. Gunn. 
Here also is the THE Rev. W. Kirpy, a former 
President of the Museum, and a _ distinguished 
~ entomologist. 
_ Towards the north end of the west wall will be 
found a well-painted head of Lord NELSon (artist 
unknown). It does not give the idea of Neison with 
which we are familiar, but it was painted in 1781, 
when he was Captain of the A/éemarle, and was but 
twenty-three years of age. It is hardly likely that 
there are other portraits of him at that age with which 
to compare it. 
To the left of the central group is a good portrait 
of ALDERMAN JOHN Browng, of Norwich, (0. 1834), 
by JosEPH CLOVER, also of this city. Further to the 
left is the late Mr. JoHN GURNEY, to whom we are 
chiefly indebted for the transfer of the Museum from 
the building in St. Andrew’s Street to the Castle. 
This picture.is a copy by Crecit Scuott, of the 
original by G. F. Warts, R.A. 
Near the door on the west wall is ROBERT FoORBY, 
who was born at Stoke Ferry in Norfolk, in 1759, and 
died in 1825. He was the author of a well-known 
Vocabulary of East Anglia. ‘The name of the painter 
is not given. Near it is an interesting Heap, date 
1577, also by a painter whose name has not come 
down tous. At the top of the picture, on the left, is 
the name—‘ Mr. Bitt,” and a coat of arms. On the 
right-hand side is the inscription, “ A‘tatis suze, 32.” 
Another and a smaller head hangs close by, 
EDMUND GILLINGWATER, of Lowestoft, author of a 
History of that town. He died in 1813, aged 77. 
Two larger portraits, one of BisHop Sparrow, the 
other of his wife, although rather hard in style, are 
interesting. ‘The name of the painter is not known, 
Anthony Sparrow was a native of Depden in Suffolk.
