ART GALLERY. 67 
On account of the value attaching to the notes by Sir W. Martin 
Conway in the Diirer Exhibition Catalogue, a special and revised 
edition on hand-made paper, limited to 50 copies, was printed after 
the close of the Exhibition, and of this sufficient copies have 
already been sold to repay the cost. 
The Autumn Exhibition was open during 95 days and 
65 evenings, from 19th September, 1910, to 7th January, 1911. 
The catalogue comprised 2,445 items, as against 2,300 in 1909, 
and the collection was similar in plan to that of 1909, including 
amongst its special features a room devoted to Continental art, a 
complete exhibition of works (100 in number) by members of the 
Royal Society of Miniature Painters, a very important black and 
white section, and a collective exhibition of works by members of 
the Pastel Society. 
The Continental section was for the first time adequately shown 
by its transference to Room B, which gave more space for an 
effective arrangement. 
The Subscription Banquet at the opening of the Exhibition, 
instituted in 1909, was repeated on 16th September with great 
success, there being 140 ladies and gentlemen present, including 
the Lord Mayor and Lady Mayoress of Liverpool, the Lord Mayor 
and Lady Mayoress of London, the Lord Mayor of Manchester, 
the Hon. J. L. Griffiths (American Consul-General in London), 
Mr. George Hearn, of New York, Sir Alfred East, A.R.A., 
P.R.B.A., Mr. W. H. Lever, Mr. J.Y. Dawbarn, M.A. (President 
a of the Liverpool Academy), Sir George Frampton, R.A., 
Mr. A. Bruce-Joy, and Mr. James Paterson, R.S.A.
