THE history of the great collection of drawings of classical antiquities which was assembled by Cassiano dal Pozzo and later collectors has been frequently and fairly fully discussed in archaeological literature of the last eighty years.1 With the exception of thirty drawings seen at Windsor as recently as 1905 and now no longer in the collection, the Dal Pozzo-Albani drawings fill about fifteen large volumes in the Royal Library at Windsor Castle and two even larger volumes in the Department of Greek and Roman Antiquities of the British Museum. The drawings of classical sculptures of all types are concentrated in ten of the Windsor volumes and number 834 separate drawings, many elaborately colored and highly finished. To this material may be added over 500 drawings of antiquities of all types in the volumes preserved in the British Museum, hereinafter designated as Franks (see p. 19 below).
