§ An attractively produced catalogue of an exhibition of hitherto unknown drawings by Fuseli. The entire collection was first discovered, and later catalogued by Peter Tomory, the great Fuseli scholar, when still in the private hands of an individual collector. In 1965, they were sold by the collector to the Auckland City Art Gallery. This catalogue includes all thirty-seven drawings, which are illustrated and described, and they are accompanied by appendices and a chronological biography, in addition to notes on the plates.
