The example of the Wallace Collection is the finest of the three,and the one which most undoubtedly exhibits the characteristicsof Holbeins style and manner. The Duke of Buccleughs smallminiature, though weaker, might aUo be ascribed to Holbein himself.The well-known engraved portrait by Hollar was no doubt taken fromthis example in the Wallace Collection. Identical in design withit is the much larger drawing in the Gallery of Portraits of Paintersat the Uffizi in Florence. That supposed auto-portrait is, however,nothing more than a much enlarged copy of this miniature. German School. First Half of XVI Century. (See Plate No. 25.) 94.
