I was so astonished,
I couldn't think of what to say.
1:59:02
Then I became angry,
and said to him, "He's dead."
1:59:06
The striving after this peerage was
one of Barry's most unlucky dealings.
1:59:12
He made great sacrifices
to bring it about.
1:59:16
He lavished money here,
and diamonds there.
1:59:20
He bought lands
at ten times their value...
1:59:23
...purchased pictures and articles
of virtue at ruinous prices.
1:59:28
He gave entertainments
to those friends to his claim...
1:59:33
...all, being about the Royal person,
were likely to advance it.
1:59:38
And, I can tell you, bribes were
administered. And in high places, too.
1:59:44
So near the person of His Majesty
that you would be astonished to know...
1:59:49
...what great noblemen condescended
to receive his loans.
1:59:56
This is by Ludovico Cordi...
1:59:59
...a disciple of Alessandro Allori.
2:00:02
It's dated 1605...
2:00:05
...and shows,
"The Adoration of The Magi."
2:00:10
It's beautiful.
2:00:11
Yes.
2:00:14
I love the use of the colour blue
by the artist.
2:00:17
Yes, that is very beautiful.
2:00:21
What is the price of this one?
2:00:25
Well, this is one of my best pictures.
2:00:28
But, if you really like it, I'm sure
we can come to some arrangement.
2:00:46
Lord Wendover, Your Majesty.
2:00:47
I'm glad to see you here today,
Lord Wendover.
2:00:50
What news of Lady Wendover?
2:00:52
Thank you, Your Majesty.
Lady Wendover is much better.
2:00:55
Good! Present my compliments to her.
Say we miss her company here.
