Description
An account of the resource
<p><strong>Color transparency rendered as a Fresson print, 9</strong><strong>½</strong><strong> x 14</strong><strong>¼</strong><strong> in. </strong></p>
<p>This print is part of an elegant series in which each image of New Mexico’s Rancho de Taos church has its own palette based on the moment’s reflected light.</p>
<p>As with Monet’s paintings of the Rouen Cathedral, Douglas Keats created a significant body of photographs with different moods over the course of a year. Using the the same iconic Ranchos de Taos church, Keats, along with Ansel Adams, Paul Strand, Georgia O’Keefe and John Marin, memorialized the deep-rooted, timeless Spanish Southwest culture.</p>
The print was rendered at the Atelier Fresson in Paris with a proprietary technique developed in the 1880s. Each print requires six hours to produce through a four-color separation process. The handmade paper and layered inks produce textures echoing Ranchos de Taos’s hand-plastered, stucco structure.

Description
An account of the resource
The most precious items in my collection of pop-up and movable books and ephemera are handmade. On rare occasions, paper engineers will construct a unique and personal pop-up for me.
In 2012, while on safari in Botswana, I found sheets of paper made from elephant dung! Coarse but pliable—and NOT smelly—I tried to envision what paper engineers would make from them and sent a sheet to my dear friend and book artist, Ed Hutchins.
Imagine my surprise when I received an envelope from Ed with a note that said, “You are the only person in my life who has sent me rare poopy paper.” Inside was a greeting card made of the dung paper and was itself an elephant pop-up! He didn’t even know that I also collect elephants. And like an elephant, I’ll never forget Ed and this card, which I treasure.

An account of the resource
<p><strong>Albumen print from glass-plate negative, 13¾ x 10¾ in.</strong></p>
<p>The greatest of Victorian photographers and arguably of all nineteenth-century photo-portraitists, Julia Margaret Cameron is a model to women professionals. Given a camera at age forty-eight, she dedicated herself to mastering the taxing wet collodion process in order to portray the “Great men and Fair women” she felt privileged to know. Among them was Poet Laureate Alfred, Lord Tennyson, who invited her to illustrate his 1874 edition of <em>Idylls of the King</em>. Cameron made two dozen prints from a purported 245 negatives, using a short focal-length lens to achieve her signature selective focus, a photographic evocation of Old Master painterliness. Her goal was “to ennoble photography and to secure for it the character and uses of High art by combining the real and ideal and sacrificing nothing of Truth by all possible devotion to Poetry and beauty.” Did she do all that? In retrospect—perhaps!</p>
Her sitter for Camelot’s betrayed, doomed monarch was William Warder, a porter at dockside near Freshwater, the Camerons’ Isle of Wight home. This print is the oldest and dearest in my modest collection of photographs by women.

An account of the resource
<p><strong>Chromogenic color print, no. 24/100, 9</strong><strong>¼</strong><strong> x 11</strong><strong>½</strong><strong> in.</strong></p>
<p>Candida Hӧfer’s “photographs are sober and restrained in feel—the atmosphere is disturbed by neither visitors nor users, especially as she forgoes any staging of the locations. The emptiness is imbued with substance by a subtle attention to colour, and the prevailing silence instilled with a metaphysical quality that gives voice to the objects, over and above the eloquence of the furnishings and the pathos of the architecture….” This crisp description of Höfer’s artistry can be found, along with <em>Trinity College Library Dublin I</em>, in her book of photographs, <em>Libraries</em> (2005).</p>
Aside from the brilliance of this composition, which presents Trinity College Library as a "chambered nautilus" of receding spaces, I responded to this photograph, purchased at a satellite fair of Art Basel Miami Beach, because of the library depicted. My graduate thesis was on the art criticism of Samuel Beckett. A further expansion of the scope of the topic to include a wide swath of the writer's critical output necessitated investigations into the “systems” of Dante, Bruno, Vico and Joyce, among other great thinkers. This photograph is a reminder to me of the great erudition that informs all of Beckett's oeuvre, and the venerable institution that helped foster his imagination.

Eight-color pigment-based archival print on Hahnemuhle paper, 46 x 20 in. No. 38/40.
There is not much point in collecting unless it is for pure enjoyment. I particularly enjoy whimsy, especially when rooted in wit. Phil Shaw’s Friction 2 fits the bill: shelves of books so closely packed that the titles and authors have “rubbed off” on each other. The artist’s process is so realistic that you think it’s photographs of actual spines, only to find that he switched words in titles and mixed names for some unlikely pairings: The Boys from Wakefield by Ira Goldsmith next to The Vicar of Brazil by Oliver Levin. Its significance for me? The humor pushes the envelope of what is real or assumed to be real; one needs to take a closer look in order to understand.

An account of the resource
<p><strong>Vintage gelatin-silver print, 7</strong><strong>⅜</strong><strong> x 11</strong><strong>⅛</strong><strong> in.</strong></p>
Lee Friedlander’s <em>New York City, 1974</em> was one of the first photographs I acquired. It is a keystone image in Friedlander’s book, <em>American Monuments,</em> whose theme is the tension between our (sincere, if sentimental) respect for our heroes and the prosaic, sometimes chaotic reality of our lives. Like every great work of art, its lessons are indelible once grasped. In time I gradually came to understand the reason I loved photography in general, and this approach to the medium in particular. Rendering visual facts, plainly and clearly can express complex ideas and powerful emotions. While building a collection is fun, the journey of discovery towards understanding what moves you and why is much more so.

Description
An account of the resource
<p><strong>Tintype, 5</strong><strong>¼ x 4⅜ in</strong><strong>.</strong></p>
<p>I have always collected books and other works on paper, so at the age of eighty, despite giving collections to libraries in my zone of affection, my house is pretty full. Idea: collect something not as space consuming as books…like photographs.</p>
<p>I collect “folk photography,” images rapidly produced at amusement parks or by itinerant photographers in small-town or rural America, places where photographs were otherwise a luxury. I concentrate onportraits of persons posed with a crescent moon prop, many of the props painted as the face of the man in the moon. The resulting images range among couples in a holiday mood, children with or without adults, dogs and cats, and sober-faced family groups dressed for the camera. Why would anyone want a portrait taken with the man in the moon or any crescent moon prop?</p>
Most of these images are now found as “real photo postcards,” popular during the early twentieth century and, much less frequently, as exhibited, in the earlier form of tintypes.

Though she’s never heard of me or of my collection on women in the American wilderness, no one but Roz Chast could better capture the agonies and joys of foraging through book stores far and wide for un- and under-appreciated narratives of women who set out into the wilds of the Americas with guts and a dream and, if really lucky, a knife and a fork.

Description
An account of the resource
Ink on paper, 12 x 8 in.
Artist and set designer Robert LaVigne created portraits of many luminaries in the San Francisco bohemian scene. This drawing of Peter Orlovsky (1933–2010), poet and longtime partner of Allen Ginsberg, helps to document the period just prior to Howl and On the Road. The Beat writers were still unknown outside of their immediate circle, and it captures the calm before the launch of the Beats into the public arena the following year. This portrait was created at the Black Cat Café in San Francisco, a watering hole for artists, writers, actors, musicians, gays and rebels from the 1940s until it closed in 1963.
During my early years of collecting, I focused on books, manuscripts and correspondence relating to the Beats. This was the first work on paper added to my collection, and it has expanded my interest and appreciation for a broader approach to my collecting.
