THE PICTURE GALLERY. 247 Sir Antony Vandyke, by Sir P. P. Reubens. — A headand shoulders only. Nell Gwynn, by Sir Peter Lely.—The Opposite Engravingwill convey some notion of the beauty and elegance of this pic-ture. It has greater feminine attraction than any one which Iremember to have seen of the Original. Granger, in his list, doesnot describe the present; of the genuineness of which there can-not be a doubt.* She is dressed in a yellow or straw-colouredgown, with a lavender-coloured mantle thrown over it. The cha-racter of the Original is too notorious to need recital. Granger,vol. iv. p. 188, has given a brief but vigoious delineation of her.She was the most celebrated low comic actress of her day; andhaving become mistress to Lord Dorset, and afterwards to CharlesII., she had, by the latter, two sons ; the Duke of St. A
