Portrait of Albrecht Dürer (1471-1528), after Johann Rottenhammer's copy of Dürer's self-portrait from the Feast of Rose Garlands. The familiarity of Kilian's image is in part a result of the fact that Joachim von Sandrart, used it as the basis for his illustration of Dürer in his book on German artists, the Teutsche Akademie of 1675. Sandrart's biography, which is the first full appreciation of Dürer's life and art to be published in his own country, played a vital role in the growth of the Dürer cult.

[Sir Balthazar Gerbier and his Family From the Original Picture, painted by Sir Ant: van Dyck, in the Collection of her Royal Highness the Princess Dowager of Wales...]
A. van Dyck pinx.t. W.m Walker Sculpsit.
J. Boydell exc.t. 1766 [Published according to Act of Parliament, Feb 1st 1766 by J. Boydell Engraver, in Cheapside, London.]
Engraving, scratch letter proof before title. 475 x 605mm (18¾ x 23¾"), with large margins.
Sir Balthasar Gerbier (1592-1663/67), art agent, miniature painter, and architect, with his wife Debora Kip and their eight children (it is suggested that the girl in the centre is either a servant or a dwarf). While Gerbier's creative efforts have been disparaged (Pepys said one of his books was 'not worth a turd'), in recent years attention has turned towards Gerbier's work as keeper of the picture collection of George Villiers, marquess of Buckingham. Frederick, Prince of Wales, bought the original oil as a Van Dyck in 1749; however the Royal Collection now ascribes it to Sir Peter Paul Rubens and his studio (probably Jacob Jordaens). Gerbier and Rubens first met in the 1720s while conducting diplomatic business (it is claimed they were using Buckingham's collecting as a cover for conducting treaties between Britain and Spain). As Gerbier's family grew the painting was extended: in c.1629-30 it only featured Debora, three children and a baby; c. 1631-4 more canvas was stitched on, on which Gerbier and the two central figures were added; finally c. 1638-41 the three children on the right were apended. The timespan of the additions make most of the children look the same age. The original painting was sketched by Edward Edwards to prepare this engraving, which was published in 'The Most Capital Paintings in England', a five-volume set that was a critical and financial success for the publisher John Boydell.
