The Cobbe Portrait
Most life-like portraits are those which represent the very heart of the painter and not of the sitter; and knowing that the obvious test of a newly discovered portrait is its history or pedigree, we may justify how the great collector of Shakespearian relics, Halliwell-Phillipps, without a pedigree, would not look at any article, and another noted scholar, Dr. F. J. Furnivall, refused to consider any portrait that could not be traced to Shaksperâs family or intimate friends.
