"This volume shows some 1,600 oil paintings in public ownership in the county of Hertfordshire. Drawn from over 40 collections across the county including museums, art galleries, council buildings, educational establishments and public libraries, the paintings in this catalogue provide a fascinating insight into the cultural heritage of the county. The catalogue includes Bushey Museum and Art Gallery with its nationally important holding of paintings by Hubert von Herkomer and his students, together with several fine eighteenth-century paintings in the Watford Museum collection and Letchworth Museum and Art Gallery's holding of early twentieth-century British works." --Book Jacket.
