(1.) TIME FOR, AND MODE OF, SENDING IN WORKS.-All Works intended for the Annual Exhibition at the Royal Academy, MUST BE PUNCTUALLY SENT THERE ON ONE OF THE DAYS FIXED FOR THEIR RECEPTION. No works will under any circumstances be received after the specified dates. All Works sent from the country or from abroad must be consigned to an Agent in London for delivery at the Academy, unpacked, on one of the appointed days. No Works in cases will be received; nor will the expenses of carriage be defrayed by the Academy. The attention of Foreign Artists and of English Artists residing in the country and abroad is especially called to this regulation. (2.) MODE OF DESCRIBING WORKS.--All works must be accompanied with a printed form duly filled in with the name (Christian and Surname in full, signed by the Artist) and Address of the Artist, the Titles and Descriptions of the Works as they are to be inserted in the Catalogue, and the Price if it is desired to place them on Sale. These forms must be sent under cover addressed to "The Secretary" and be delivered with the Works. No advertisement, unnecessary quotation, or narrative, can be admitted. At the back of each frame must be written the Name and Address of the Artist, with the Title or Description of the I icture, and the Number (if there be more than one) to which it refers in his List. This information must also be repeated, with great distinctness and accuracy, on a label attached by a string to the top of each frame, and made to hang over in front, as also to each piece of Sculpture. It is necessary that these Regulations, more especially the last, should be strictly complied with, in order to avoid delay and inconvenience as well as inaccuracy in the Catalogue. The Forms and Labels can be procured (during the month of March only) from the Academy on receipt of a stamped and directed envelope. (3.) NUMBER OF WORKS ALLOWED.-No Artist is allowed to send or exhibit more than Eight different Works. (4.) SIZE OF FRAMES, MARGINS, &c.-Each Picture, or Drawing, must be in a separate Frame, except very small Miniatures or Sculptured Gems, any number of which may be placed in a frame not exceeding six by five, or thirty square inches, and shall be considered as one picture; or, if a series of Designs from one Story be at any time admitted in the same Frame, they must be enumerated as distinct pieces. All Pictures and Drawings must be in Gilt Frames. OIL PAINTINGS UNDER GLASS ARE INADMISSIBLE. EXCESSIVE BREADTH IN FRAMES OR MARGINS, AS WELL AS PROJECTING MOULDINGS, MAY PREVENT PICTURES AND DRAWINGS OBTAINING THE SITUATION THEY OTHERWISE MERIT. Oval frames should be avoided, as they are difficult of arrangement. Lowreliefs should be framed. (5.) WORKS INADMISSIBLE.-No Wokrs which have been already publicly exhibited in London ;-no Copies of any kind (excepting Paintings in Enamel, and Impressions from unpublished Medals, in which case the name of the original Designer must be specified);-no mere Transcripts of the objects of Natural History;-no Vignette Portraits, nor any Drawings without Backgrounds (excepting Architectural Designs);-and no Engravings or Etchings that have been published six months can be received. (6.) SELECTION OF WORKS.-All Works sent for Exhibition are submitted to the judgment of the Council, whose decision is final, and is officially communicated by letter to every contributor. (7.) SALE OF WORKS.-The Prices of Works to be disposed of may be communicated to "The Secretary," and will be entered in the Price Catalogues placed in one of the Galleries. Communications with regard to the Price and Sale of Works must in all cases be made by the Artist, and be addressed in writing to "The Secretary": no others will be attended to. All purchases will be registered, but the Academy can undertake no responsibility with regard to either the payment for the Works purchased, or for their delivery to the purchaser. (8.) CLOSE OF THE EXHIBITION-DELIVERY OF WORKS.-Before the closing of the Exhibition every Exhibitor will receive a separate Printed Order for the Delivery of each of his Works. These must be properly filled in and signed by the Artist, and presented by the person sent to claim the Work, whe must sign a receipt for it in a book provided for the purpose. No Work will be delivered up without the production of the Order. The Academy will not undertake to pack or forward any Work. All Works must be removed within ten days from the closing of the Exhibition. (9.) PRIVILEGES OF EXHIBITORS.-Each Exhibitor is entitled to a Ticket of Admission to the Exhibition, as also to the ensuing Winter Lectures and Winter Exhibition of Old Masters. They can only be obtained by personal application at the Royal Academy. When Works are described as the joint performance of several Artists, the first mentioned in the description will alone be entitled to the above Tickets. *.* EVERY POSSIBLE CARE WILL BE TAKEN OF WORKS SENT FOR EXHIBITION; BUT THE ROYAL ACADEMY WILL NOT HOLD ITSELF ACCOUNTABLE IN ANY CASE OF INJURY OR LOSS. The Prices of Works may be ascertained at the Tables in the Vestibule. (See paragraphs 7 and 8 in the "Notice to Exhibitors.")
