In offering a New Edition of my illustrated Album of the finest Specimens in
the Naples Museum, I desire to thank my patrons for the success which I have
achieved in the former Editions, and to assure them that nothing shall be
wanting on my part to secure a continuance of their kind patronage.
The letterpress to this Edition has been carefully revised for me by
Mr. Neville Rolfe, who so kindly prepared the last English Edition of my
Handbook to the Museum, and at his suggestion I have inserted from the best
authorities a summary of the various legends and historical facts connected with
the plates,which cannot but make the work instructive as well as entertaining.
I desire especially to acknowledge the valuable assistance received in
compiling the letterpress from the works of Dr. Smith, Lempriere, Ramsay,
and Quaranta.
