Gavin, I checked the Christie's site, but there is no photo of the hand
in the Sidney Psalms manuscript. Do you have any idea if one could get
access to such a photo? Henry W. has seen a lot of hands in the period
and might be able to identify it, and of course I am pretty familiar
with the hands in and about the family papers in Maidstone. It would be
fascinating to try and trace it. Best, Germaine
