See Burlington Catalogue, p. 86. In one of his articles on the Arundel Collection (see Burlington Magazine, vol. xxi., August 1912, p. 257), Mr. Lionel Cust speaks of this head of the Earl, at Hardwick Hall, as “perhaps by Holbein himself,” and states that, according to Vertue, in the sale of the Earl of Oxford’s pictures, 1741, there was sold “Lord Fitzwilliams,” a head by Holbein, for fifteen guineas.
