(Bryan Collection.) B-158. St. Catherine. (38|x28i) Peter Paul Rubens. There are but six pictures of this quality of color by Rubens, known to the donor. Three are in the Louvre, one is over the painter's tomb, one is the famous Chapeau de Paille, and the other is before us. It was brought from a church in the neighborhood of Brussels, by Nibuwen- HUYSEN, the elder, and sold to the Count Perregeaii. (Bryan Collection.) B-159. Christ bearing the Cross. (59x24^.) Peter Paul Rubens. This picture i...s especially valuable for historical con- siderations, as being the only one which Rubens is known to have painted on cedar panel. It formed one compart- ment of a triptique in the Cathedral of Antwerp. The centre compartment represented the Flagellation of Christ. The donor has the authority of Mr. Hbris for the authenticity of this picture, and the locality from which it was stolen. (Bryan Collection.) B-160. Portrait of a Knight of the Order of the Golden Fleece. (44x33.) Peter Paul Rubens. This picture is from the collection of Louis Philippe, King of the French, and was supposed to be by Vandyke.
