Note du spécialiste

A detail derived from the Portrait of Don Andrés de Andrade y la Cal painted by Bartolomé Esteban Murillo (1617-1682) circa 1665-72 in the Collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.
The 1925 Inventory and Valuation of the contents of Newton Hall, Felton, Morpeth, Northumberland, The Property of Brigadier General B. F.
