"Of the three extant illustrated manuscripts chronicling the history of the Inca empire and early Spanish rule in the Andes, two are by the Mercedarian friar Martin de Murua, who probably arrived in Peru in the 1570s. His Historia del origen, y genealogia real de los reyes ingas del Piru (1590) and Historia general del Piru (1616) drew on the author's experiences among the indigenous peoples and colonial officials of viceregal Peru as well as on accounts by other Spanish writers and the talents of several Andean illustrators. The Historia general - now known as the Getty Murua - comprises thirty-eight hand-colored images, most depicting Inca kings and queens, and nearly four hundred folios of beautifully calligraphed text. The essays gathered in this volume focus not only on the manuscript's physical components - quires and watermarks, scripts and pigments - but also on its relation to Inca textiles, European portraits, Murua's other manuscript, and the intellectual and social context that gave rise to but did not publish his Historia general. The Getty Murua provides a complex and original analysis of the creation and fate of this early modern historical and artistic treasure." --Book Jacket.

This book is the first of three volumes, which altogether will comprise the first catalogue of the holdings of the J. Paul Getty Museum. It contains all the paintings belonging to the museum as of October, 1971, plus a few of the more important acquisitions made before the manuscript was submitted to the printer five months later. We are putting on paper what we own and what we have so far learned about it. For the same reasons that one cannot at present sum up the growth of the collection, it is impossible to fully acknowledge here the contribution and generosity of the man who continues to make it all possible. The founder of the museum, Mr. J. Paul Getty, has given this country, and in particular the citizens of California, one of its finest private art museums; he has done so at a time when large collections of art objects of great importance are very nearly beyond the means of an individual, the funds needed to accumulate such pieces being available almost exclusively to the largest civic organizations. His collection is known, but its scope will become apparent only within the coming year; and more important, his collecting continues unabated. The fullest and most appropriate acknowledgment of Mr. Getty's generosity must be left for another place, but to the degree that it is now possible, his contribution is detailed here.
