[Milton-L] re: Tracking Down an Image

[Horace Jeffery Hodges]

Carol, I nearly posted this myself, but I wasn't sure of Peter's query. I think that he was asking where the illustration is now located, which the online source doesn't provide:

"Location
          Private Collection"

Peter, are you looking for the location of the illustration, namely, what private collection?

anyway). Try this link: http://www.bridgeman.co.uk/search/s_results.asp?order=1&view=2&page=1&port_id=&stype=all&lview=2&lpage=1&search=John+Milton

  Image
  
Hello Everyone,

I'm hoping someone on this list can help 
  me track down the whereabouts of Arthur A. Dixon's illustration, "Blind Milton 
  dictating his immortal poem." The problem is that the source given by the 
  Bridgeman Art Library is incorrect (here's the link to the image: http://www.bridgeman.co.uk/search/view_image2.asp?image_id=281059). 
  It's not in Newnes Pictorial Book of Knowledge, and they have no 
  interest in tracking down where the image comes from. Nor does the illustrator 
  have a catalogue of his works. 

Any aid would be greatly 
  appreciated,

pch
