Pictures from the late King of Holland's Collection - Saint Hubert, painted by Albert Durer, 1850. 'A most exquisitely finished little picture, in beautiful preservation. 3800 florins. [The subject-matter is now identified as Saint Eustace, not Saint Hubert, although the two saints' legends are very similar and are therefore often confused.] The long-announced sale of the rich Gallery of the late King William II. commenced on Monday last, and has excited an unprecedented interest throughout Europe ; and since it has been open for inspection, the Hague has had a succession of visitors from almost every country. Many transatlantic amateurs have also visited Holland on purpose to see the King’s collections, and make purchases, and carry away some of the Royal treasures to New York, Boston, and other parts of the Western hemisphere'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
