If you have noticed an error, have information about one of these figures, know of a relevant portrait, letter, journal, sale catalogue, family paper or archival reference, or would simply like to contact me about the book, you may use the form below.

Please include as much context as you can. If you are writing about a source, portrait or document, it is helpful to include where you found it and any names, dates, inscriptions, catalogue numbers, or ownership history attached to it.

I read all good-faith messages, though I may not be able to reply to every inquiry.
