THE

COLLECTION OF LORD FRANCIS EGERTON,
KNOWN AS THE
BRIDGEWATER GALLERY.

When this celebrated collection was arranged at Bridgewater House, where a
suite of galleries had been erected for the purpose, one day in the week,
during the months of May, June, and July, was set apart for the reception
of Visitors, who were admitted by tickets only. Bridgewater House having
been lately (in 1841) pulled down, in order to be rebuilt on a more mag-
nificent and extended scale, the pictures are for the present dispersed through
the rooms of a temporary private residence, where very few of them can be
seen to any advantage.
