Title	Letter from William Foster White to Charles Ruland giving permission for the Raphael cartoon at the Foundling Hospital to be photographed for the Prince Consort's collection.
Date	3 December 1860
Writer	White, William Foster; Treasurer, St Bartholomew's Hospital and a Governor of the Founding Hospital
Addressee	Ruland, Charles; Librarian to the Prince Consort
Description	In response to a letter from Charles Ruland (see VIC/ADDA10/85/147), White writes that the Committee of the Foundling Hospital is willing for the Raphael cartoon of 'The Massacre of the Innocents' to be photographed for the Prince Consort, with no limitation as to the numbers of prints, as they consider that bringing such works of art to public notice is a good way of promoting art itself. As the cartoon is large, glazed and fixed in a room he asks for notice to make preparations for the photography.
