Overview

Excerpt from Handbook of the Dyce and Forster Collections in the South Kensington Museum: With Engravings and Facsimiles There seems to be a particular fitness in including the two collections in the same handbook. Mr. Dyce and Mr. Forster were intimate friends, and Mr. Forster, the survivor of the two, was (with Mr. William Macpherson) Mr. Dyce's executor; taking a warm interest in the acquisition of the Dyce bequest by the South Kensington Museum, and contributing the biographical sketch of his life which is prefixed to the catalogue of his library. The Dyce and Forster bequests are at present arranged in rooms distinct but side by side, and in the new galleries they will occupy a similar position. One reading-room is used in common by the visitors to the two libraries. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
