Extract

Mr Coventry read a short notice of an antique marble bust which he had had the good fortune to purchase from a gentleman in Westmoreland, last autumn, and had reason to believe had been brought from Italy.

The bust, of which some very fine photographs were exhibited (executed by Mr Tunny of Newington, and Captain Scott, R.N.), Mr Coventry considered to be a portrait, and a work of high Greek art.
