## Regulations.

****************

ALL Works of Art intended for exhibition (which must not have been previously publicly exhibited in Liverpool) must be delivered between

Monday, July 21st, and Saturday, August 9th.

ARRANGEMENTS have been made to meet the convenience of Metropolitan Artists for the transmission of their Works, at their own cost and risk, through Messrs. M. & M. Fleming, 4, Pall Mall Place.

FORM, which may be had on application, or a note (written only on the first and third pages) must be sent by post, and addressed to the Curator at Liverpool, giving the Prices and describing the Works to be inserted in the Catalogue (quotations and narratives will be subject to the approval of the Executive Committee, and should be sent in duplicate). At the back of each Picture must be written in full the name and address of the Artist, the title and price of the Picture, and the number (if there are more than one) to which it refers on his List. Artists are also requested to repeat the title and price, with name and address, on a label to be attached to the back of the frame by a string, so as to allow it to hang over the front of the Picture during hanging and cataloguing. The strict attention of Artists to these regulations is earnestly requested, in order to insure accuracy in the Catalogue; and the absence of the price frequently interferes with the sale of Pictures.

## Frames and Margins.

ALL Works must be sent in suitable frames; and round, oval, and other unusually-shaped Pictures must have the frames square or oblong in outside form, without projecting corners. Any but gilt frames, and any admixture of black in the frames, and any undue weight or superfluous carving, may prevent the Committee from being able to hang Pictures and Drawings so sent. Drawings with mounts are admitted, provided that the frames be without any projecting ornaments whatever, and the width of mounts and frames does not exceed five inches; a DISTINCT preference will be given to gold mounts.
