Description:
Sir William Hamilton sends a couple of his art works, the head of Jupiter and the 'Sulphur of the damaged Piombino Augustus with the name of Diosconides thereon, proving plainly that The Augustus is the work of the same celebrated Artist'. He asks his niece to show them to the Duchess of Portland and he will visit the Duchess later that day. He writes of his hopes that the business of selling his art will be completed soon. He also notes that Cipriani is to make a drawing of the vase.
