PREFACE
views regarding a lost fresco by Jacopo Bellini at our disposal ; to Prof.
Holmes, for permission to reprint documents first published in the Burlmgto7i
Alagazine ; and to Mrs. Herringham for her valuable note on the technique
of Foppa's pictures in England.
We desire also to acknowledge our indebtedness to all owners of works
by Foppa for allowing their pictures to be reproduced in this book ; to
the Directors of the National Gallery, the Wallace Collection, and the
Victoria and Albert Museum, for permission to have pictures in the collections
under their care photographed ; and to Signor Domenico Anderson of
Rome who, most liberally waiving his rights, accorded permission for the
free reproduction of his photographs in the present volume.
To all whom we have named and to many others to whom in the course
of this work we may have been indebted for assistance,
our deep sense of obligation.
Finally, we owe a very special debt of gratitude to
we desire to express
Mr. John Lane and to
all concerned in the printing and publishing of this work, for the time,
thought, and care which they have bestowed upon the production and illustration
of the volume.
