Attributed works:
20. Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester, by Federico Zuccaro. 1575. Black and red chalk, 37.8 by 27.5 cm. (British Museum, London). This is a preliminary drawing for a painting (destroyed 1940) which hung in the Earl’s collection at Kenilworth Castle, Warwickshire.
Western art unattributed:
21. Sir Philip Sidney, by an unknown artist. 1577 or 1578. Panel, 110 by 92.5 cm. (Reproduced by permission of the Marquess of Bath, Longleat House, Warminster, Wiltshire). This painting and its extant variants and copies would seem to derive, with varying degrees of separation, from a sitting to an Anglo-Netherlandish painter. No images are known to survive from Sidney’s sitting to Veronese in 1574 or, indeed, from any of the other occasions on which Sidney is known to have posed for his portrait.
