AFTER DRAWINGS BY GEORGE S. ELGOOD, R.I. WITH NOTES BY GERTRUDE JEKYLL 39 PATERNOSTER ROW, LONDON NEW YORK AND BOMBAY 1904 PREFACE The
publication of this collection of reproductions of water-colour drawings would
have been impossible without the willing co-operation of the owners of the
originals. Special acknowledgment is therefore due to them for their kindness
and courtesy, both in consenting to such reproduction and in sparing the
pictures from their walls. On pages xi. and xii. is given a full list of the
pictures, together with the names of the owners to whom we are so greatly indebted.
We
have also had the valuable assistance of Mr. Marcus B. Huish, of The Fine Art
Society, who has taken the greatest interest in the work from its inception. G. S.
E. G.J.
