5. Sir John Tradescant, junior, in his garden, with a spade in his hand, half length.
6. The same with his wife, half length.
7. The same, with his friend Zythepsa of Lambeth, a collection of shells, &c. upon a table before them.
8. A large quarter piece inscribed Sir John Tradescant’s second wife and son.
These pictures have neither date nor painter’s name. They are esteemed to be good portraits, but who the person was, who is called Zythepsa is not known. He is painted as if entering the room, and Sir John is shaking him by the hand.
Hollar engraved two portraits of the Tradescants, father and son, which are placed as frontispieces to the little volume, mentioned in the preceding note.
Granger (2. 370) says he saw a picture at a gentleman’s house in Wiltshire, which was not unlike that of the deceased Tradescant, and the inscription was applicable to it:—
Mortuus haud alio quam quo pater ore quiesti
Quam facili frueris nunc quoque nocte doces.
