Gift to Library from J. P. Morgan

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The University library has lately received from Mr. J. P. Morgan, five sumptuously illustrated and exquisitely bound volumes. Three of these illustrate "The Pictures in the collection of J. P. Morgan at Princes Gate and Dover House, London; with an introduction by T. Humphrey Ward and biographical and descriptive notes by W. Roberts." Photogravures by Hanfstaengl and colored plates by Goupil represent nearly all of the pictures described in the catalogue. The other two volumes contain the "Catalogue of the collection of miniatures, the property of J. P. Morgan, compiled by G. C. Williamson."
