The J. Paul Getty Museum Journal is a compendium of articles and notes pertaining to the Museum’s permanent collections of antiquities, paintings, sculpture, and works of art. This issue includes for the first time contributions dealing with conservation and related matters; thus, it is an appropriate tribute to the memory of David Rinne, who headed the conservation of antiquities in the J. Paul Getty Museum from the Fall of 1973 to the end of 1976. This volume reflects all aspects of the Museum’s collections with articles written by M. Weber, F. Brommer, G. Olbrich, L. Beschi, Al. N. Oikonomides, C. C. Vermeule, M. Del Chiaro, J. Pollini, H. Georgiou, B. Wohl, L. Byvanck-Quuarles van Ufford, J. G. Keenan, B. B. Fredericksen, M. Wynne, S. Bailey, C. H. Greenewalt, Jr., T. Schreiber, Z. Barov, L. Sangermano, G.E. Miller, D. L. Bunker, C. Mancusi-Ungaro, P. Pinaquy, G. Schwarz, H. Georgiou, and H. Lavagne.
