This is the last of these notes. They end with the arrival in London of Poussin's Sacraments and the eighth picture [St John Bapotising the People]. There are numerous references to the art-trade carried on by Byres and Reynolds - art auctions in Europe, art-works on the market, prints, sculpture by Canova, paintings by Battoni, & paintings by Gavin Hamilton [of which there is also information in the Gazette de l"Europe]
