A large Medal and 25l. for the best, and a small Medal and 10l. for the second best, Treatise on the Objects exhibited in the Section of Fine Arts.
Each Treatise must occupy, as nearly as possible, eighty pages of the size of the Bridgewater Treatises.
The Society will also award its large Medal and 25 guineas for the best General Treatise upon the Exhibition, treated Commercially, Politically, and Statistically; and small Medals for the best Treatises on any Special Object or Class of Objects exhibited.
The successful Treatises are to be the Property of the Society; and should the Council see fit, they will cause the same to be printed and published, awarding to the Author the net amount of any profit which may arise from the publication after the payment of the expenses.
The Competing Treatises are to be written on foolscap paper, signed with a motto in the usual manner, and delivered at the Society's House on or before the THIRTIETH OF NOVEMBER, 1851, addressed to George Grove, Esq., Secretary, from whom additional particulars may be learned.
