Preferred Citation [Identification of item]. Collection of cased photographs and related images, The Huntington Library, San Marino, California. Immediate Source of Acquisition Acquired from various sources. Items were either acquired individually through gift or purchase, or were transferred from manuscript collections. See container list for sources of individual items. Scope and Contents A collection of chiefly 19th-century cased photographs representing some of the earliest photography formats: daguerreotypes, ambrotypes, and tintypes. These early photographs, made on glass or metal plates, were typically placed in small, hinged wooden cases, often covered with leather and lined in velvet, with a brass mat and piece of protective glass placed over the image. The collection contains 72 daguerreotypes and 46 ambrotypes (approximately 1840s-1860s), and 58 early tintypes (approximately mid-1850-1900s). Some items in the collection are not in cases or are in frames. The Huntington Library assembled these 185 photographs into a collection from various sources over a period of many years, and some related formats were added: a miniature tintype album with 22 portraits; two opalotypes; two miniature paintings; and six photographic prints placed in cases or frames; and one stereoscopic daguerreotype in a fold-out viewing case. Also in the collection are two modern daguerreotypes, made in 1992 and 2003 by photographer Robert Shlaer, and three ambrotypes made in 2012 by Barret Oliver, of the mausoleum of Henry E. Huntington and his wife, Arabella Huntington, on the grounds of the Huntington Library in San Marino, California. Most cased items were cleaned and housed in individual, custom-sized boxes by the Conservation Department in the late 1980s. The majority of photographs are studio portraits of men, women, and children, made approximately 1840s-1865 (daguerreotypes and ambrotypes), or approximately mid-1850s-1900s (tintypes). Many are pioneers of the American West, or ancestors of families who came West, and others are unidentified or of unknown provenance. Notable portraits are: Edgar Allan Poe; Jane Thoreau (aunt of Henry David Thoreau); John B. Colton (Jayhawker of 1849); a postmortem view of a young daughter of B.D. Wilson; Theodore D. Judah; a whole plate ambrotype of a group of San Francisco businessmen; and a Civil War drummer boy and his mother. There are a few reproduction images of Abraham Lincoln, including two circular images that were campaign badges. Also in the collection are several outdoor scenes: California Gold Rush miners posed with tools at work sites; the First Baptist Church, San Francisco, 1849; a street scene in the frontier town of Orleans, California; and the locomotive "Sam Cruse," named for an executive of the Memphis & Charleston Railroad. Photographers are largely uncredited, though three have the imprint of Robert H. Vance, San Francisco, and date from 1853-1856. A whole plate daguerreotype of Lyman Beecher is by Southworth & Hawes of Boston, Massachusetts, approximately 1850. Most of the images are undated, which is common with cased photographs. If a date can be determined from writing or other material with the image, or by the image content, that date is given. When dates cannot be determined from any other source, estimated dates have been given based on dates of major usage of daguerreotypes (1840s-1850s) and ambrotypes (1855-1865). Tintypes were produced mid-1850s to early-20th century, though tintypes in this collection are estimated to date no later than 1900s. Processing Information Collection of Cased Photographs photDAG 2 and Related Images photDAG Titles were assigned by the cataloger unless otherwise noted. Dates estimated by the cataloger are in square brackets. The images were assigned numbers by Library staff over a period of many years, circa mid-20th century-2013, and these numbers have been retained. There are no items for numbers 4 and 24; item 106 is missing as of 2009. The cataloger has intellectually rearranged the items in this finding aid to group together items with shared provenance, and provide an alphabetical listing of identified persons. Arrangement Organized in three series: Series 1. Portraits, approximately 1840s-1900s Series 2. Mining scenes, buildings, and other subjects, approximately 1849-1900s Series 3. Modern ambrotypes and daguerreotypes, 1992-2012 Existence and Location of Copies Black-and-white copy prints and copy negatives of many of the images were made by The Huntington Library in the late 1980s.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Feb. 26, 2008 CONTACTS: Thea M. Page, 626­405­2260, [email protected] Susan Turner­Lowe, 626­405­2147, [email protected] NEW CATALOG AND LECTURE SERIES TO SPOTLIGHT THE HUNTINGTON’S FRENCH ART COLLECTION San Marino, Calif. — A new authoritative and richly illustrated catalog focusing on The Huntington’s important collection of French sculpture, paintings, and decorative art is being released this month. Published by The Huntington Library, Art Collections, and Botanical Gardens in association with Yale University Press, French Art of the Eighteenth Century at The Huntington is edited by Shelley M. Bennett, senior research associate at The Huntington, and Carolyn Sargentson, head of the research department of the Victoria & Albert Museum, London. The book’s release will be complemented by the French Art at The Huntington lecture series, beginning March 4 with a talk by Rosalind Savill, director of the Wallace Collection, London, and continuing with Alastair Laing, curator of paintings and sculpture, National Trust, London, on April 2; Anne Poulet, director, the Frick Collection, New York, on April 30; and Bennett on June 19.

Grade Level: Adult, College, Grades 6-8, Grades 9-12 Collection: American Art Culture/Region: America Subject Area: Fine Arts, History and Social Science, Visual Arts Activity Type: Art in Depth OVERVIEW The Worsham Rockefeller Bedroom was originally housed in the New York home of Arabella Worsham Huntington at 4 West Fifty-fourth Street. Richmond native Worsham Huntington moved into the mid-1860s built Italianate style home in 1880 after three years of renovations to the property. She lived there until 1884 when the property was sold to American oil magnate, John D. Rockefeller. The room showcases the Aesthetic Movement style of furnishing that was fashionable during this time period. The approximately twenty-five by twenty-eight feet room was originally decorated with stamped rose-colored wallpaper, ornate carpeting, multicolored glass and brass light fixtures, and a suite of ebonized inlaid mahogany furniture. Upon the death of Rockefeller in 1937, the Bedroom was left to the Museum of the City of New York. In 2008, the Museum of the City of New York kindly transferred the room to the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts as it is located in the hometown of Arabella Worsham Huntington. The Worsham Rockefeller Bedroom is the first and only period room at the VMFA. Worsham Rockefeller Bedroom 1881-82, revised ca. 1937 Decoration attributed to George A.

  • Its Name, the Huntington Library, Art Collections
    By Eleanor H. Gustafson ts name, the Huntington Library, Art Collections, and Botanical Gardens, pretty well covers what this I singular institution in San Marino, California, is all about. But it hardly begins to tell the story. The creation of Henry E. Huntington, a man with forward-looking business sense and retrospective tastes in art and literature, the Huntington today is moving ahead in a number of adventurous ways that honor and illuminate the past. Last fall, for example, Harold B. “Hal” Nelson, curator of American decorative arts, in collaboration with The Magazine Antiques, invited seven notable California artists to explore the ways in which their work carries on and expands Huntington’s legacy. Before we get to these artists and their discoveries, it is useful to understand that legacy and how it came about. Having made his fortune as a railroad executive under the aegis of his uncle Collis P. Huntington—one of the “big four” who brought the railroad across the conti- nent—Henry Huntington moved to Los Angeles in 1902, recognizing its promise as one of the country’s most important cultural, agricultural, and commercial centers. He established transportation and electric power systems, bought up huge tracts of land for development, and acquired a work- The grand loggia along the east side ing ranch for himself, with acres of the Huntington Art Gallery re- of citrus groves, nut and fruit or- mains much as it was when built, to chards, and glorious views of the the designs of Myron Hunt and El- mer Grey, as the residence of Henry San Gabriel Mountains.

We will see how, through his works and writings, a part of our country are kept alive in America, thanks to the generosity and persistence of this poet, who dedicated a major part of his life travelling across our villages and mingling with our people, becoming immersed in the Spanish culture which he praised so much. Key words: Archer Milton Huntington, hispanist, Hispanic Society, poet, Navarre, Aragon En este trabajo se analiza la figura de Archer Milton Huntington, fundador de Hispanic Society of New York y gran mecenas de arte español, así como su vena hispanista y su pasión por España, por su arte y sus gentes, patente en sus obras, las cuales servirán como base para el futuro análisis de su visión de Navarra y Aragón, regiones a las que dedica tanto poemas en su obra Collected Verse, como en su libro de viajes A Notebook in Northern Spain.
