Crow, Director During the biennium the Division of Archives and History experienced two epochal changes. First, William S. Price Jr., director for fourteen years and an employee of the division for twenty-four, retired on June 30, 1995. Second, the North Carolina Museum of History became an independent division within the Department of Cultural Resources, effective February 1, 1996. Those two changes set off a series of transitions that will continue well into the future. In the first instance, Jeffrey J. Crow, administrator of the Historical Publications Section, became acting director on July 1, 1995. Upon the recommen- dation of the North Carolina Historical Commission, Secretary Betty Ray McCain appointed him permanent director on November 1. In the second instance, Secretary McCain and Deputy Secretary Elizabeth F. Buford planned carefully for the structural changes that would occur within the Department of Cultural Resources with the separation of the North Caro- lina Museum of History from the Division of Archives and History. Secretary McCain appointed an internal committee to study how to effect the separation and to report to the North Carolina Historical Commission. At its November 1995 meeting, the commission agreed to assume oversight of the Museum of History Division in addition to the Division of Archives and History. Sub- sequent to that meeting, Deputy Secretary Buford appointed a Collections Management Policy Team to study the disposition of the thousands of artifacts physically divided between the Museum of History and the Historic Sites Section. Jeffrey J. Crow, James C. McNutt, director of the Museum of History, and James R. McPherson, administrator of the Historic Sites Section, served as cochairs of the team. At the end of the biennium the group was approaching consensus on how to manage the department’s historic artifacts. One other consequence of the museum’s separation should be noted. For the first time since the Hall of History under Fred A. Olds came under the purview of the North Carolina Historical Commission in 1914, this biennial report will not include a report or appendixes from the Museum of History. Another part of the division’s program that saw fundamental changes was the Historic Sites Section. Initiatives from the General Assembly resulted in two written reports about the feasibility of making the Newbold-White House and the 1767 Chowan County Courthouse part of the state historic sites system. The North Carolina Historical Commission rejected the Newbold-White House but accepted the courthouse, which officially became part of the Historic Edenton State Historic Site. Meanwhile, by legislative action the Elizabeth II was transferred from the Historic Sites Section to the Roanoke Island Commission, an autonomous agency within the Department of Cultural Resources. Across the division new publications attested to the professionalism, talent, and depth of research that take place routinely in every section. Sherman’s March Forty-sixth Biennial Report through North Carolina: A Chronology prepared by the Research , Branch in response to the controversy swirling around a proposed Union monument at Bentonville Battleground State Historic Site, was published by the Historical Publications Section. It immediately became a best seller, but it could not begin to compete with the long-awaited State Troops and Volunteers: A Photographic Record of North Carolina’s Civil War Soldiers, by Greg Mast. That volume alone lifted the Historical Publications Section to new levels of receipts. The section also issued a new volume in the Colonial Records series, the second volume of Zebulon B. Vance papers, a history of Onslow County,

  • Peoples- Based Conservation and the Paint Analysis of Hinemihi's Carvings
    Original research or treatment paper Painting Hinemihi by numbers: Peoples- based conservation and the paint analysis of Hinemihi’s carvings Dean Sully1, Isabel Pombo Cardoso2 1University College London, Institute of Archaeology, London, UK, 2Departamento de Conservação e Restauro, Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia da Universidade Nova de Lisboa, Lisbon, Portugal (Department of Conservation and Restoration, Faculty of Science and Technology, New University of Lisbon) This study describes the analysis of paint samples from carvings belonging to Hinemihi, the Maori meeting house, Clandon Park, Surrey, UK. The assessment of physical evidence contained within Hinemihi’sbuilt fabric (along with historiographic research of archival sources and oral histories) has formed a key part of the information gathering process during the current conservation project. The production of such data provides an opportunity for a dialogue that is essential for effective decision-making within participatory conservation projects. From this, it is evident that the use of paint analysis, in deciding the eventual painted scheme for a restored Hinemihi, is settled within a broader dialogue about the conception, use, and management of Hinemihi as a Maori cultural centre, as built heritage, and as an object of conservation. Therefore, the value of material analysis is considered in relation to the potential that this information has to engage a community of users in designing an effective conservation response that seeks to balance the opportunities and constraints of the cultural and physical landscapes that surround Hinemihi and Clandon Park. Keywords: Materials analysis, Paint analysis, Values-based conservation, Peoples-based conservation, Maori meeting house, Building conservation, Public engagement, Object biography Introduction 1996; Russell & Winkworth, 2010).

Hudgins, Committee Chair Frances Ford Ralph Muldrow Elizabeth Ryan ABSTRACT Over one million visitors per year traverse the visitor path through George Washington’s home at Mount Vernon. Increased visitation has tested the limits of the architectural materials and created the single most threatening source of degradation. While the history of Mount Vernon is dotted with attempts to mitigate damage caused by visitors, scientific analysis of the dynamic impacts to the historic fabric is needed to preserve the integrity of the preeminent national house museum. The following thesis presents a holistic analysis of visitor impact and material degradation occurring at Mount Vernon.

    Governors’ Papers 1 R. Gregg Cherry GOVERNOR ROBERT GREGG CHERRY, 1944-1949, n.d. Arrangement: By record series or subject, then chronological. Reprocessed by: James Mark Valsame Finding aid by W. F. Burton, January 8, 1949 Digitized by: James Mark Valsame Date: May 31, 2012 Robert Gregg Cherry (October 17, 1891 – June 25, 1957), Post-World War II governor of North Carolina and speaker and long-time member of the North Carolina House of Representatives, was born at Catawba Junction, near York, SC, to Chancellor Lafayette and Hattie Davis Cherry. His mother died when Cherry was one year old and his father, a farmer and Confederate veteran, six years later. Cherry was sent to Gastonia, just across the state line, to live with his maternal grandfather, pioneer Gastonian Isaac N. Davis, and his uncle, Henry M. Lineberger. Cherry attended the public schools of Gastonia and then was graduated from Trinity College in 1912. He completed a law degree at Trinity College in 1914, winning the Judge Walter Clark prize as the highest ranking student in the graduating class. Returning to Gastonia, he established a law practice with Alfred Lee Bulwinkle, long-time friend and future congressman from the area. When the United States entered World War I in 1917, Cherry delighted in organizing among men in the Gastonia area a machine gun troop of the First North Carolina Cavalry, which he trained and commanded during service overseas. He always took great pride in having developed a group of local men into a fighting cadre. His interest in the military continued after the war, and he maintained membership in the National Guard until 1924.

Laurie | 250 pages | 28 Mar 2003 | Dover Publications Inc. | 9780486218687 | English | New York, United States The Painters Methods and Materials PDF Book These methods were very different than those used by artists today. Authentic Decor: The Domestic Interior For example, while each single hair of the fur trimmed jacket of Frans van Mieris' tiny Couple with a Puppy has been rendered with astonishing accuracy, the identical fur trim of Vermeer's Woman Holding a Balance is suggested through subtle changes in tone. Dispersions from the original finish coats were analysed under the polarising microscope, and the constituents are given with their percentage content for each element of the room. A certain amount of the information on paint and colour is drawn from the author's earlier works; however there are useful facts to be learned on the treatment of decorative plaster ceilings of the late 18th century. Modern paints have an almost uniform consistency while hand-made paints have entirely different drying brushing and covering characteristics from one another, which, however, painters had not only overcome but had learned to use to their advantage. He was elected into a Fellowship of his College in The substances or materials used in the creation of a work of art, as well as any production or manufacturing techniques, processes, or methods incorporated in its fabrication. The problems of using traditionally formulated paints for the restoration of historic paintwork are discussed. Seller Inventory n.
