To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
To obviate this and secure my aim, I propose, for $20, 000, to deliver the collection, with a descriptive catalogue, published in connection with my History of the Schools of Painting represented by the Gallery, (copyrights of both to be mine, with the privi- lege of illustration from the pictures, ) in good order, either in Italy or Boston, (if the latter, actual expenses to be paid, of packing, freight, and insurance, ) to any asso- ciation or individuals pledged to make it finally the nucleu...s of a permanent gallery for Boston, the final arrangement for exhibition (hanging, lights, and temperature, the last an important consideration for pictures on wood) to be intrusted to me, and the collection to be kept to- gether as a whole, under some distinctive name. Or, including the above conditions, a committee, as above suggested, being appointed to appraise the pictures, I will give one half of their appraisal for the above purpose, the other half being paid to me. Further, as it is desirable to increase the value and efficiency of the gallery by the addition of masters of the Venetian, Lombard, and Bolognese schools, illustrating the gradual decline of Art in Italy, if funds be raised for that end, I agree to give my time and experience (travel- ling-expenses paid) to their acquisition.
