Corrections
In John Collins’s review of Gustav Klimt, edited by Alfred Weidinger, which appeared in last month’s issue (pp.621–22), the caption to Fig.49 should have read ‘Portrait of Emilie Flöge, by Gustav Klimt. 1902–04’. This is not the newly identified portrait of Helene Flöge, attributed in Weidinger to Gustav’s brother, Ernst Klimt, which we intended to illustrate; our apologies
to John Collins.
Guilhem Scherf of the Département des Sculptures at the Musée du Louvre has pointed out that in the review by William Mostyn-Owen in the August issue (pp.555–56) it is stated that the catalogue of the Louvre’s Italian paintings, under review, is the first summary catalogue of any department in the Louvre to appear since 1981: this should have read ‘of any paintings department’.
