IV PIETER DE HOOCH A COMPARATIVE TABLE FOR IDENTIFYING IN THIS CATALOGUE THE PICTURES DESCRIBED BY SMITH, AND BY HOFSTEDE DE GROOT (iN Oud Holland^ vol. X. 1892, p. 178). Note. To find the new number of a picture described by Sm., or by de G. (Hofstede de Groot), look for his number in the left-hand column ; the new number will then be in the same horizontal line in the second column if Sm. describes the picture in vol. iv., in the third column if Sm. describes it in his Supplement, in the fourth column if de G. describes it in Oud Holland, vol. x. Thus, to find Sm. 16, look for 16 in the left-hand column ; the new number of this picture, in the second column, is 6. Again, Sm. Suppl. 16 is now 304, the number given in the third column ; while de G. 16 is now 3, the number given in the fourth column. Sm. Sm. Suppl. DeG. Sm. Sm. Suppl. De G.
