General Note

A catalogue, by room, of the paintings bequeathed by Sir Francis Bourgeois to the Dulwich Picture Gallery in 1811. The catalogue is undated, but the printer statement on the verso of the title-page (and at the foot of p. 22) reads, 'London: W. Wetton, 21, Fleet Street.' and William Wetton was at that address from 1824.

Bound (1) in vol. II of a set of pamphlets from the library of Richard Westmacott RA.
