Description of the Ancient Sculpture Preserved in the Department of Greek and Roman Antiquities of the Museum of Archeology of Leiden : Part I: Statues

Now that I am, to my great joy, enabled to begirr the publication of our small, but in many respects so interesting collection of ancient sculpture, it is here my agreeable duty, to mention my old teacher and fatherly friend, the late Prof. Dr. A. E. J. HoLWERDA, to whom a great part of this work is due. It was in the years 1915-1917 that I in coöperation with him and with his help began the description of our sculpture and with gratitude and piety I remember many usefull hints and much good advice of his, by which this work has profited. Further thanks are due to Dr. Pn. A. KuENEN, the assistant at the geological museum at Leiden, who so kindly helped me to determine as far as possible, the quality of the marble.
