Content Description

He has been driven from Rome by illness; he may remain at Florence as the climate is so much better for his health; his picture at Lord Burghersh's is venerated as much as ever; Floernce hopes for his self portrait, although he feels that, from the number of works Lawrence is producing, this is a vain hope.
