Sources
Although I hold a number of photographs and works, the story would be incomplete without the many contributions from other sources, both family members and others who contacted me after seeing the website. All photographs reproduced on this website carry an acknowledgement, where known, of the source but I have also listed the main contributors below.
When I set up the website many years ago, I was pleased to discover that The Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam had instituted a very forward looking initiative by making high resolution files of its works of art available for download, free of copyright restrictions. As a result, I was able to add a number of photographs of interest.
Several more institutions have followed the Rijksmuseum’s lead by lifting copyright restrictions. Those that concern us here are principally the Museum of Rotterdam, The Wallace Collection and The British Museum which now permits the non-commercial use of many its images under the Creative Commons licence.
