Vols. 4-17 were done by Clifford Kenyon Shipton.

Vol. 1 includes "an appendix, containing an abstract of the steward's accounts, and notices of non-graduates, from 1649-50 to 1659."

This volume features nearly 500 paintings, watercolors, pastels, and miniatures from Harvard University's storied, yet little-known, collection of American art.
