The dates in the first column are as numerous as it was practicable to make them, but, owing to the many changes of titles to Reynolds's pictures, it has been impossible to identify the whole; many are not, to our knowledge, recorded. The dates which are marked with the star must be regarded as uncertain. The difficulty of identifying pictures is exemplified by the case of 'Master Brown, ' which has four names, and many more engravers in divers styles. Hence it is by no means improbable that repetitions may occur in this list. 1787 Angels' Heads (Miss Frances Isabella Ker Gordon). S. W. Reynolds, P. Simon, and others. 1782 Angerstein, Mrs., And Child. Small half-length. Ridley, J. Scott. 1783 Angerstein, The Children Of Mrs. J. Scot
