By GEORGE W. REID, F.S.A,, 
Of the British Museum, 
HIS Index will form a book of reliable and facile reference to EXHIBITED PICTURES until 
the present time, from the first gathering by the ‘Incorporated Society of Artists,” 
which was made in the Rooms of the Society of Arts in 1760. These exhibitions were con- 
tinued to 1790; and from 1761 to 1783 they were held simultaneously with those of the 
rival ‘‘Free Society of Artists.” From these Associations sprang the present ‘‘ Royal 
Academy,” whose first exhibition was held in 1769. Thus, this Index of Exhibitions occur- 
ring during more than a century, with References to the Works of Art, will be indispensable 
to Collectors of Paintings, Drawings, and Prints, to Museums, Galleries, and Cabinets, and 
to Dealers in Examples of the British School. 
Intending Subscribers are requested to send their names as early 
as possible to Messrs. TRUBNER & CO.
