Excerpt from A Catalogue of the Pictures at Grosvenor House, London: With Etchings From the Whole Collection; Executed by Permission of the Noble Proprietor, and Accompanied by Historical Notices of the Principal Works This Artist was State Painter to Charles the Second; and although inferior to his predecessor Vandyke, his Pictures have always been held in high estimation.
