Summary

It is with great pride that the Philbrook Museum of Art opens this tour of Italian paintings. The Bob Jones University Collection of Religious Art is one of the finest and most comprehensive collections of old master pictures in the country. Philbrook has been given a rare opportunity to organize a national exhibition tour and to publish a new catalogue. Both will bring attention to this extraordinary but little-known collection to the public at large. - Preface.
