Excerpt from A History of Renaissance Architecture in England, 1500-1800, Vol. 1
I must express my obligations to the Warden and Fellows of All Souls' College; and the Provost and Fellows of Worcester College, Oxford, and to the Trustees of the Soane Museum, for permission to reproduce drawings by Wren, Inigo Jones, and others in their collections, also to Mr. Birch, the Curator of the Soane Museum, Mr. Oman and Mr. Pottinger, Librarians of All Souls' and Worcester Colleges, for their courteous assistance. I have also to thank Mr. Gotch and Mr. Batsford for permission to reproduce four plates published in Mr. Gotch's Architecture of the Renaissance in England, and Messrs. Belcher and Macartney and Mr. Batsford for the opportunity of seeing the photographs now being published by them in their Later Renaissance Architecture in England, 1897, and for permis sion to reproduce the view of Somerset House. The plates issued in both these publications are invaluable in illustration of the entire period covered in this history; and I would particularly call the attention of the reader to Messrs. Belcher and Macartney's series as illustrating a period of English architecture little understood and im perfectly appreciated, as yet, by the general public. I have also to thank Mr. Batsford for permission to reproduce the view of St. Paul's from Mr. Birch's City Churches, and Messrs. Varney and Son of Buckingham, Mr. Ault of Aldbourne, Wilts, and other photographers for permission to make use of their work. The plans, of Christ Church, Spitalfields, and the Club House at Eltham, Kent, have been prepared from measurements taken by Mr. P. Bauhof, and that 01 Groombridge from measurements by Mr. G. Streatfield. A list of the principal works consulted will be found at the beginning of the book.
