.

46. Oil Painting: Bellinzona, The Castle.

In the same frame with no. 47.

47. Oil Painting: Mesocco, The Castle.

_Alps and Sanctuaries_, ch. xix. Butler always had this and no. 46 in
the same frame.

48. Oil Painting: Bellinzona, The Castle.

He made many sketches of the Castle at Bellinzona, this and no. 46 are
the only two I have found; none was quite satisfactory because there was
no point of view from which the towers composed well behind a good
foreground.

49. Drawing in pencil and ink: The Sacro Monte, Varese, from the seventh
or Flagellation Chapel.

He intended to paint a picture this size, and started by making this
drawing, which is an enlargement of the drawing reproduced in _Alps and
Sanctuaries_, ch. xxiii. (1881), but he did not proceed with the
painting.

50. Drawing in pencil and ink: Boulogne-sur-Mer, La Porte Gayole.

This was a favourite view which he often sketched; but I have only found
this example.

SAMUEL BUTLER AND OTHERS

51. All (except a few which are lost) the original drawings for _Alps
and Sanctuaries_.

Placed here in order of date because the book was published in 1881. Some
of the drawings are by Charles Gogin, who did the frontispiece and the
Madonna della Neve on the title page, and who also introduced the figures
into those of Butler's drawings which have figures; and a few are by me.
There are among this lot also several sketches, etc., by various persons
which Butler collected as illustrating his "Considerations on the Decline
of Italian Art." Some are published in the chapter so headed in the
book, but others were not published.

Wheel was to appear in a fresco. See no. 19.

_Miss Savage to Butler_.

31_st_ _October_, 1883: I went to the Fisheries Exhibition last week
and spent a rather pleasant day. I was by myself for one thing, and,
