Excerpt from Six Greek Sculptors It is impossible to acknowledge my obligation to all my predecessors, but I would more especially mention M. Collignon's H istoire de la Sculpture Grecque, to which I have made constant reference, and the various works of Professor Furtwangler, above all his Master pieces of Greek Sculpture. To Mrs. Strong I am in debted for her help in the choice of illustrations, and for the loan of many photographs; also to both authors and publisher for permission to reproduce some details from the magnificent plates of hamdy-bey and Th. Reinach, Une Necropole Royale (3 Sidon. Other publications from which I have borrowed are mentioned in the list of illustrations; I would especially quote among these the Fouilles de Delphes. I must also acknowledge the permission to photograph and repro duce the statue of Heracles in the Lansdowne collection.
