I also wish to thank those individuals who in a variety of ways helped me to accomplish the goals I gave myself. Several curators and others connected to various museums and collections have been cooperative in supplying me with information and with photographs. Among them are: Anne Adams, Margaret Beers, P. Bol, Elie Borowsky, Adriana Calinescu, Annie Caubet, Bernard Davezac, Rene Dreyfus, Robert Cohon, Sidney M. Goldstein, Mary Gruel, Ann C. Gunter, Adrienne Jeske, E. Klengel, Arielle Kozloff, Kristen Lenaburg, Glenn Markoe, A. Miller, P. R. S. Moorey, Otto Nelson, James Romano, William Jay Rathbun, J. Riederer, Irene Roughton, Kevin Smith, Ann Ternbach, Nancy Thomas, Sarah Wentworth, Patricia J. Whitesides, Karen L. Wilson, Richard Zettler, Stephen Zwim. Others, mostly dear friends, gave me moral support and encouragement when I experienced despair over scholarly behavior, or the vastness of the problems encountered, or publication problems, and so forth. These include Daphne Achilles, Laurie Schneider Adams, Ann Guinan, Stephen J. Hyman, Donna Seldin Janis, Ulrike Low, Grace Freed Muscarella, Lily Natijehashem, and Elizabeth Simpson. / / ✓ 7
