In Vols. XVIII. (1898) and XXXI. (1911) of the Journal I gave some account of black-figured vases acquired by the British Museum subsequently to the appearance of Vol. II. of the Catalogue of Vases in 1893. On page 1 of the latter volume a promise was made that another paper should follow, describing red-figured vases similarly acquired; but its appearance has been delayed by the war and other circumstances, with the result that the number of vases now included amounts to nearly fifty. Seventeen other vases acquired during the period 1895–1920 are omitted here as having been already published elsewhere, but a list is appended on page 150. The total number of red-figured vases added to the collection since 1894 is thus over sixty.
