Notes

"An oil painting of Sebastian Cabot in old age, perhaps identical with one seen by Purchas in the royal collection at Whitehall before 1625, was in the 18th and 19th centuries in the possession, successively, of Lord Errol, of C. J. Harford of Bristol, and of Richard Biddle of Pittsburg, Pa. It was destroyed by fire in 1845; copies made by J. G. Chapman are owned by the Massachusetts and New York historical societies and by the Mayor and Corporation of Bristol. The portrait appears to be an ideal one, executed after Cabot’s death." -- Dictionary of Canadian Biography, vol. 1 (1966) [1]

cf National Maritime Museum, Greenwich, PAD2347 for an 1824 version of the engraving, attributed to be after Hans Holbein.
