FORTHCOMING VOLUMES
VOL 85 (2023)
The volume for 2023 will be an edition of the art and architectural correspondence of Frederick Hervey (1730-1803), Bishop of Derry and 4th Earl of Bristol, who built three houses, Downhill and Ballyscullion in Northern Ireland and Ickworth in Suffolk, which he planned to fill with a large number of works of art collected over his lifetime. The correspondence includes a long series from Hervey’s architects, Michael Shanahan and Placido Columbani, together with others from Antonio Canova, Jacob More and Alexander Day. The author is Peter Fox, Fellow of Selwyn College, Cambridge, and former University Librarian at Cambridge.
"I have recently looked through the titles of the articles printed over the last fifty or so years and stand amazed at the range of scholarship displayed."
