with a fine collection of Greek coins, with a full set of the British
museum electrotypes, with a collection of Greek vases representing
the periods of Greek ceramic art, and with various plans, models, and
reconstructions .
Course 3, the shorter course of lectures on Greek sculpture in the
museum, will give the student a knowledge of the general history of
the development of Greek art, such a knowledge as will enable him to
