Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Burlington Magazine, 1910, Vol. 17: For Connoisseurs; April to September 1910 This copy shows that the Bellini portrait was well known and much admired in the East, and that it probably was sent to the Sultan of Herat or the Shah of Persia, whose court painter Behzad was. I think this copy will convince all who still doubt the Italian origin of the original what a dif ference there is about eastern and western ways of painting. Fig. I shows a later copy, or rather an interpretation of the same subject. To judge from the execution, this must be the work of a copyist of about 1550-1600. Even here the eye is drawn in this characteristic way. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
