Notes
Note

"Martin Van Meytens was commissioned to paint the original pair of portraits by James in 1725. They were produced in Rome upon the birth Henry and were designed as mutual gifts to be hung in each other's private rooms. Van Meytens then moved to Vienna and became the official court painter. The two originals were considered among the most successful likenesses of the pair. It is not known whether the originals survive but in 1727 James commissioned an artist called E. Gill - an Englishman who was in Rome for a time - to produce ten copies which were then gifted to Jacobite supporters. One pair of Gill's copies are housed in the National Gallery of Scotland. It is not known how many of Gill's copies still exist but the quality and age of this pair are very close to the known examples."
