  • Nathan Flint Baker, Leavitt Hunt E Richard Morris Hunt
    BETH SAUNDERS Seguaci americani della Scuola romana di fotografia: Nathan Flint Baker, Leavitt Hunt e Richard Morris Hunt Abstract In 1851, before embarking on a journey to Egypt and the Near East, Americans Leavitt Hunt (1831-1907) and Nathan Flint Baker (1820- 1891) traveled to Rome to learn photography. There, they encountered members of the Roman School, an international group of practitioners of paper negatives. A year later, Leavitt’s brother Richard Morris Hunt (1827-1895) traveled to the same sites and collected photographs. This article explores the networks that connected them to Rome, illuminat- ing a little-known American contribution to paper photography and providing further confirmation of the influence of the Roman School on the medium’s development.

Quello stesso anno, Baker e il compagno d’avventura americano Leavitt Hunt si im- barcarono dall’Italia in un Grand tour nel Mediterraneo, utilizzando il soggiorno romano per affinare le proprie competenze fotografiche nella speranza di fare ritorno con i souvenirs dei monumenti più noti visi- tati nel corso del viaggio.

JOHANNA FRANCINA MALHERBE (néé DE KLERK) Handtekening: ………………………………………… Datum: …………………………………………………. Kopiereg © 2014 Universiteit van Stellenbosch Alle regte voorbehou Stellenbosch University http://scholar.sun.ac.za iii OPSOMMING Hierdie studie het ten doel om die rol wat 19de-eeuse fotografie kan vervul in die rekonstruksie van ’n era en in die bewaring van kultuurgoedere vir die 21ste eeu, aan te spreek. Die fotoversameling van William Roe van Graaff-Reinet word as voorbeeld gebruik. Die ontstaan en ontwikkeling van Graaff-Reinet word as agtergrond behandel en belangrike gebeurtenisse soos onder meer Die Groot Trek, die koms van die spoorlyn, die Anglo- Boereoorlog, die Eerste Wêreldoorlog en die Groot Griep word uitgewys. Aspekte soos opvoeding, kerke, die biblioteek en hospitaal is aanvullend bestudeer om ’n volledige beeld van Graaff-Reinet daar te stel. ’n Oorsig oor die ontwikkeling van fotografie dek verskeie vroeë fotoprosesse soos die daguerreoproses, Talbot se papiernegatief, die calotipe-fotoproses en die gewilde carte-de- visite-foto's.

  • Hunt Family Papers, 1758-1908 MSA 682-686, MSB 91, MS Size B
    Hunt Family Papers, 1758-1908 MSA 682-686, MSB 91, MS Size B Introduction The Hunt Family papers contain the papers of U.S. Congressman Jonathan Hunt (1787-1832) of Brattleboro, Vermont, his widow, Jane Marie Leavitt Hunt (1801-1877), and some of their children, especially the European diaries of their daughter Jane Hunt (1822-1907). The collection spans the period 1758 to 1908 and is housed in four archival flip to boxes, one flat, clamshell box, and one oversize folder. It consumes three feet of shelf space. Provenance The collection was purchased by the Vermont Historical Society from Michael Paxton, a great-great-great grandson of Jonathan Hunt, in May 2013. Additional materials were added to the collection by another Hunt descendant, Carley Angell, in August 2013. Guardianship correspondence created in the period 1840-1841 was purchased from The Unique Antique of Putney, Vermont, in August 2013, and incorporated into this collection. A separate listing of this acquisition is included in Folder 0. Samuel Hunt’s commissions in Size C were removed from Stevens Family of Barnet papers (MSA 585). When the collection came to the Vermont Historical Society it was housed in eleven loose leaf binders. The binders contained essays on historical figures and events, original documents taped to notebook pages, and transcriptions of many of those documents. A summary inventory of the original eleven binders is included in Folder 0. The binders have been discarded and most of the documents have been removed from their backings. The collection is now housed in archival folders and boxes with a new inventory (below).

The house was designed by Richard Morris Hunt (1827-1895) and bears resemblance to three sixteenth century châteaux in the Loire Valley, France: Blois, Chenonceau, and Chambord. However, Biltmore was not the first of the Vanderbilt’s homes to replicate European designs and aesthetics from previous centuries. The most famous of these mansions were in Newport, and include Marble House (1888-1892; figure 2) and the Breakers (1893; figure 3), both designed by Hunt. Centuries after these homes were built in Newport, they continue to be synonymous with the wealth and decadence of Gilded Age Newport, and indeed, Gilded Age America.
