Passing through the saloon , and turning to the left, we regain
the staircase, from which a doorway, opposite that of the
picture-gallery, and also flanked hy two antique columns, leads to the
left into a room containing the Collection of Engravings and
Drawings. The Collection of Engravings (catalogue 25 ö.), the
foundation of which consists of the Crozat Collection purchased
at Paris in the first half of the 18th cent, by Count Carl G.
Tessin, now numbers upwards of 80,000 plates.
In the glass-cases are exhibited at present water-colours by Swedish
painters, which are changed from time to time. On the walls are hung a
few large paintings by Swedish masters : 1058, 1250. M. E. Winge,
Subjects from northern mythology: 937, 938. J. E. Bergh, Landscapes.
The Drawings, particularly those of the Netherlands Schools,
are also very valuable.
Among them should* be noticed a large and admirable portrait, by
Lucas van Leyden; about a dozen genuine drawings by Rubens (including
studies for the Rustic Dance and the portraits of Ferdinand and Francesco
Gnnzaga); nearly as many by Van Dyck, rare and excellent (an English
couple, Crucifixion of St. Peter, C. van Geest, etc.); a series of very
clever sketches by Adr. Brouwer, D. Teniers, and Adr. van Ostade; and
above all about 50 admirable and important drawings by Rembrandt.
Of these last, ten are exposed to view, and the others are kept in
portfolios. They are chiefly sketches for pictures (Christ appearing to Mary,
for his picture at Brunswick; Sacrifice of Manoah, at Dresden;
Abraham’s Sacrifice, at St. Petersburg, etc.); also a portrait of Titia van
Ulcnburgh, his sister-in-law (1639), and several valuable studies.
Returning to the staircase, we next visit a saloon lighted
from above and a cabinet containing the French Pictures.
