About the book >.>.> This exhibition of Flemish drawings, comprising a modest part of the collection of the late Frits Lugt, is the first to be held since the eminent collector's death. The original suggestion for the exhibition was made in 1970 by Mr. Herman Liebaers, the Director of the Royal Library of Belgium in Brussels. Frits Lugt agreed readily, realizing the importance of a well-organised exhibition of the drawings and also remembering with gratitude the valuable co-operation he had received from the Royal Library some years previously. Shortly afterwards Sir John Pope-Hennessy, the Director of the Victoria and Albert Museum, proposed that the exhibition should be shown in London. Lugt gladly agreed to this, though not without a certain diffidence. The two exhibitions will in fact constitute the first occasion on which a selection of over 120 drawings will be placed on show in the country of their origin after being seen in the country where most of them were acquired.
