Overview

Excerpt from The Art Treasures of London Painting Although many handbooks to the public art galleries of London have been published during the last few years, no concise guide has yet appeared which displays at a glance their vast but scattered wealth. It is impossible for the art-lover to discover the where abouts of all the existing examples of any particular School or master in London without the loss Of much time. And unless he is able to collate a score of catalogues (some out of print and many out of date) the task is almost hopeless. This volume consists of three parts (i.) Plans of the galleries with general information. (il) A chronological list of artists arranged according to the order of their schools, including classified lists of all the pictures representing their works to be seen within the London area. The brief biographical notes are in no sense intended to be exhaustive, but will be found useful as a rapid memory aid. (iii.) A complete index to the names of the artists.
