Punch's Fancy Portraits.- No. 68

Bildunterschrift:
Sir John Gilbert, R.A.
In him those wholly antique hours are seen,
to art an ornament, himself, and true,
leaving to crazy limners pale sage green
to clothe limp lanky forms of sickly hue.

But him as for a map doth nature store,
to show false arte true chivalry of yore.

Sonnets by Will Shakspeare. (New Version)
