Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of Engraved British Portraits Preserved in the Department of Prints and Drawings in the British Museum, Vol. 5: Groups The fifth volume of the Catalogue of Engraved British Portraits follows the fourth, published in 1914, after a long interval, caused by the War. It was originally intended that this volume should contain, in addi tion to the section describing Portrait Groups, a supplement describing, in alphabetical order, the numerous single portraits Which have been acquired during the preparation of this Catalogue, and are not included in Vols. I - IV. It has, however, been decided, in order to avoid undue delay and to enhance the practical utility and handiness of the book for reference, to publish the Section of Groups, followed by a special index to all the persons mentioned in it, as a short separate volume, and to reserve for a sixth, which is in active preparation. The alphabetical supplement and the index to artists and engravers whose names occur throughout the Catalogue.
