Enormously grateful to ASI

We are enormously grateful to ASI for the care and trouble that was taken over the loan exhibitions from Burghley House to The United States. It is not an exaggeration to say that ASI was responsible for a complete turn around in Burghley’s fortunes as a time when we despaired of the future of the many fine collections of works of art in the house. We certainly could not have guessed that, with the help of ASI, our treasures would be seen by so many appreciative people throughout America and that the Burghley name would become so well know.

Lady Victoria Leatham, Daughter of the 6th Marquess of Exeter,
Director of the Burghley Family Trust

It was a beautifully assembled exhibition and we were very privileged to show it.

The Center has been enormously gratified by the extremely warm reception the exhibition [Paintings from the Reign of Victoria: The Royal Holloway Collection, London] received throughout the university community, in the press, and from our many visitors.  I am writing to thank you very much indeed for making the project possible in the first place by including us in the Royal Holloway Collection’s tour of the United States.  It was a beautifully assembled exhibition and we were very privileged to show it.

Yale Center for British Art

Now I am BUZZING!

A copy of the kimono show catalogue just arrived and I am knocked out!! I thought I was excited about this exhibition before, but now I am BUZZING! The book is beautiful, the kimono are ravishing, and this show is going to be a stunner! Can’t wait to see it in Philadelphia this spring.

The best exhibition organization in the US

The book is certainly one of the most striking art books that we have seen

One of the most beautiful books to have come to our attention recently is MURAQQA’, a catalogue of Mughal art with extraordinary reproductions. This catalogue accompanies a show that just opened at the Sackler Gallery this year.… The book is certainly one of the most striking art books that we have seen.
