The valuable collection of objects illustrative of Buddhism formed by Prince E. Ukhtomskij, and now preserved at the Museum of the Emperor Alexander III, St. Petersburg, includes many Tibetan and Mongolian pictures, of which select specimens, including portraits, have been engraved in outline as illustrations of the Catalogue in Russian prepared by Prof. A. Grünwedel. The kindness of the author of the Catalogue and of Prince Dy. H. Ukhtomskij permits me to reproduce two of those illustrations, belonging to a miscellaneous class, and Prof. Grünwedel has supplied me with explanations in English.
