As nearly all these entries respecting Painters are noticed by Mr. Horace Walpole in his Anecdotes of Painting, they afford no new information on the subject. The names of those who are mentioned are Vincent who painted a plat of Hastings and Rye, for which he was paid 3l. 10s.; Bartholomew Penne, Anthony Toto, Andrew Oret, and Ambrose, the Queen of Navarre's painter. Of Vincent, Mr. Walpole gives no account; Ambrose, he conjectures to have stood in but little estimation, because the sum given him for a picture was only 4l. 13s. 4d. but of Penne and Tote we have the following particulars: "Penne or Penn is called by Vasari not Bartholomew but Luca Penni; he was brother of Gio Francesco Penni, a favourite and imitator of Raphael. He worked some time at Genoa and in other parts of Italy, whence he came into England, and painted several pieces for the king and some merchants here. Vertue concludes that some scriptural subjects which he found in a small room called the Confessionary, near the Chapel at Hampton Court, particularly the Passion, were by Penn. Vasari adds, that Luca Penni addicted himself latterly to making designs for Flemish engravers. Toto was afterwards Serjeant Painter, and Rymer (vol. xiv. p. 595.) gives his letters of Naturalization. Speaking of Ridolphi fils de Dominique Ghirlandaio, he says, 'Chez lui il y avait Toto del Nuntiato, qui depuis s'en alla en Angleterre, ou il fit plusieurs ouvrages de peinture et d'architecture, avec lequel Perrin fut amitié, et a l'envie l'un de l'autre s'efforcoit à bien faire.' But Toto's works are all lost or unknown; his fame, with that of his associates, being obscured by the lustre of Holbein." Painters formed part of the royal Household, for besides the entries in these accounts of money to Toto and Penn for their livery coats, in the Ordinances for the Regulation of Queen Elizabeth's Household, "to the Serjeant Painter and other, to his appointment" is assigned a fee of 100l. per annum.
