Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Descriptive Catalogue of the Loan Collection of Pictures: Prepared by the Authority of the Library Committee of the Corporation of the City of London
In view of these facts the Corporation of London determined to hold the present Exhibition. Several of the distinguished works now placed on view have never before been publicly exhibited; many have been brought from a distance, some from abroad, and nearly all may be said to be inaccessible to the general public, and the opportunity of again seeing many of them is remote.
