Where scientific catalogues of collections exist, preference has gen erally been given to them rather than to more elaborate essays, because they state the facts or theories regarding the sculptures with which they deal in a succinct and easily accessible form, and they also contain a list of references or earlier publications through which a given subject may be pursued by those in search Of further material in regard to it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of Casts: Parts I, II and III, Ancient Sculpture The Museum of Fine Arts was incorporated by an act of the Massachusetts Legislature in February, 1870. Its cradle was the Boston Athenaeum, the trustees of which generously gave it a portion of their valuable space during the first six years of its existence. On July 3, 1876, the first section of the present building was opened, and the life of the Museum as an independent institution begun. Its collection of casts at that time consisted of twenty-five loaned by the Athenaeum, a larger number purchased with the proceeds of a sale of pictures bequeathed by Charles Sumner, and a few gifts. The first catalogue contained 117 numbers from Greek and Roman subjects, and the amount of floor-space devoted to casts of all epochs was 3,448 square feet, divided among four rooms. Three years later the liberality of the friends of the Museum enabled the Trustees to complete a second instalment of the building, thus finishing the façade on Copley Square. By this enlargement the classical department was nearly doubled, the floor-space given to casts and originals in that department amounting to about 6,500 square feet. The collection of casts was increased in proportion, and additions were subsequently made to it from time to time until the rooms became too crowded to admit more objects.

Excerpt: ... allow of our placing it earlier than the age of the later Diadochi, when the display of technical skili in the treatment of difficult subjects was the chief object of the artist. 204. The Knife Sharpkner (Arrotino). Found in the house of Nicolo Guisa at Rome in 1556, and now in the Tribune of the Uttizi at Florence. Has with good reason been assigned to the school of Pergamon, of which it has the strongly marked characteristics. It probably formed part of a group consisting of Apollo, Marsyas and a barbarian slave, who is eagerly looking up for the signal, and whetting his knife to carry out the cruel sentence on the defeated Satyr who had challenged the God of Music to a trial of skill. He is here represented with a Cossack's skull and a pigeon breast. His hair is coarse and disorderly, his dress mean and dirty, and the whole attitude of the unclean creature is a disgusting mixture of servility and cruelty. An extraordinary amount of skill has been lavished, we might almost say wasted, on this remarkable example of the ethnological realism of the Pergamene school. The subject is one which could not have been chosen before the age of Alexander the Great. This figure was formerly misnamed "The listening slave." A similar figure is found in some Roman reliefs. 205 to 208. SCULPTURES FROM THE GREAT ALTAR AT PERGAMON IN MYSIA. BERLIN. According to Strabo, "Eumenes II.," son of Attalos I., King of Pergamon, "built the city, planted the grove of Nike"phorion, and out of love for magnificence and beauty erected "buildings as offerings to the Gods, and founded libraries, and "made Pergamon the splendid abode which it now is." One of the most remarkable of these public works was an altar of vast size, dedicated to 'Afltjva rioXia? Ko.) Nwojopo?...
