Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.

Product Information

The following pages owe their origin to a collection of Professional Portraits, the nucleus of which was a set of prints, given to the author ten years ago, by his excellent friend Mr. Fauntleroy, of Berners Street, and which, from that period, has been a source of amusement, by furnishing a desultory occupation for his pencil, as well as for his pen, at leisure hours. A catalogue is the natural result of a collection, and as the latter has increased, the former keeping pace with it has grown till it has become respectable, at least in size, if not rendered interesting by some curious and facetious anecdotes with which it is interspersed. In the compilation of this work, it has been the authors endeavour to blend the utile with the dulce; and he has at least succeeded, so far as regards himself, in acquiring an acquaintance with the Medici family (not Mr. Roscoe s), and has familiarised himself both with the learned and the ignorant, the regulars and the irregulars, of his pr ofession ;in short, with what may be denominated the Republic of Medicine: for he has looked at them It is a fact worthy of notice, that the House of Medici bear on their coat of arms five pills.
