Excerpt from Memorials of William Mulready, R. A Satisfied that the life and works of Mulready reflected each other with unusual completeness, I have, in arranging the literary portion of these Memorials, endeavoured to show how much the one was the outcome of the other. Many readers may agree with this notion and be interested in it as a matter of study. If I am right, the illustrations of this book and the painters works at large, as well as the text before us imperfect as the last may be - present what is really a biography. Other readers may welcome the story of a man whose pictures all have admired, the most important of which are in the National Galleries. About one-fifth part of the text which follows here was, shortly after Mulready's death, published in 'The Fine Arts Quarterly Review.' Additions to, and revision of, what was then written, made this a new work, for the historical portion of which I am indebted to many of the oldest, most intimate, and most eminent of the painter's friends; to these the warmest thanks are due.
