is grossly inferior to the work behind - and strangest of
all the head, no 7 being cracked through the nose and
cheek; the eye on the inside is deep drilled in the eye
ball, but the outside left eye - is smooth eyeballed
or else filled up with a substance which hardly yields
to the knife, but feels like stone, also the right cheek
of this head is aell marked and felt - that on the left is
comparatively rude and shallow and feebly scratched and
the extremities of the curls of the hear are also much
less complete in the turn, and less shaprly cut on the
left side. Yet the cracked parts seen and correspond
exactly.
1. A common bearded head; very coarsely cut
2. In coarse neck armour and ugly round helmet or
cap
3 A bearded head with long pointed ears.
4 Hair on the forehead curled in spirals all aong, just
like the moulding on the Apse of Murano. The nose sunk in
between cheeks, and very ugly.
5th. A common head - blunt nosed and every way bad.
6th. Utterly different in conception from all the rest,
It must I think be a portrait, it’s thin, thoughtful, full
of dignity, pure Italian - It wears a cap with two winged
lions thereon, and very small a d is thoroughly Dantesque
and fine, though its chiselling same in manner as that of
the others only more careful.
7. Bearded head, the cracked one. 8 a negro detestably
ugly only better chiselled than those ofupper arcade.
