Columbia College, N. Y. Negative by E. L. Walker. Photographic and Fine Art Journal Print. An albumen print, mounted on a sheet measuring 27.5 cm x 35 cm, a trimmed oval image measuring 17 cm x 22 cm. This photograph is from a negative used to make volume prints which served as tipped-in illustrations in the June 1857 issue of The Photographic and Fine Art Journal, Vol. 10, page 160, H. H. Snelling, editor. In the description of this illustration on page 185, it is stated that this building was first occupied in 1760 and underwent repairs in 1820, which did not materially alter its original appearance. At the time this photograph was taken in 1857, the building was slated to be torn down. A pencil annotation on the back indicates the location of this building as being between Church and Chapel Streets. Charles Lockwood in Manhattan Moves Uptown, an Illustrated History, says "The Park Place district was fortunate in having Columbia College as a neighbor; it occupied a two-block square campus, bounded by Barclay Street, Church Street, Murray Street, and College Place (now called West Broadway). Park Place stopped at the Church Street boundary of the campus and resumed its course a block to the west at College Place under its original name, Robinson Street." Page 42. There is an ink annotation signed by W. B. Welling and dated 1974 about the history of the photograph and its appearance in print. There is also a pencil annotation "346". There is slight soiling to the mount, but the image is fine.

Paris: A. Maurice, 1878. Fine. A. Maurice, Paris 1878, 10,6x16,4cm, une photographie. - Grande photographie originale sur papier albuminé, au format carte de cabinet, contrecollée sur un carton fort. Publicité du photographe au dos. Rare photographie de Victor Hugo dans sa maison de Hauteville, dans le fameux salon rouge Renaissance, la pièce préférée de l'écrivain, entièrement conçue par lui. On y voit l'écrivain assis, la main droite dans son gilet. De la pièce on peut voir le grand lustre à gaz, 4 sculptures porte-torchères et un miroir dans le fond. Au début de l'été 1878, Victor Hugo fait une attaque d'apoplexie à Paris et rejoint Hauteville pour sa convalescence durant les mois d'été. Le photographe André prendra alors de lui plusieurs clichés à Hauteville ; l'intérêt de ces photographies est qu'elles ne sont pas des photographies de studio. Les plaques de verre seront récupérés plus tard par Alexandre Maurice qui les tirera en 1891.…

[Paris, 1893], cabinet format (10,8 x 16,8 cm)
Period albumen portrait mounted on thick cardboard and embossed in the photographer's credit
Tiny spots, remarkable original condition
Famous and last portrait of the poet by Otto in preparation for his candidacy for the French Academy
Paul Verlaine commissioned the photographer to take a series of portraits when he considered applying for the Académie Française. Several tests are then carried out.
For these photographs, the poet poses with the famous scarf of the house Charvet, which had been given to him by Robert de Montesquiou.
Three years before his death, the poet appears the Socratic face, the hunchbacked forehead, his gaze sunk under the eyebrow arch, sporting the chamaré scarf of which he was so proud.
This portrait is one of the most famous of the poet, it is presented here in a remarkable state of preservation.

Chicago: Sydney Harris, 1958 Black-and-white print depicting the civil rights leader against a black background, signed by Civil Rights photographer, Sydney Harris. Matted and framed, 19 x 17 inches, in fine condition. Provenance: From the estate of Addie Wyatt, who appears in an Associated Press photograph by Nam Huh with the print.
The Reverends Addie and Claude Wyatt, Jr. were fixtures of the American Civil Rights movement through the second half of the 20th century.
Addie began her career working with the Amalgamated Meat Cutters and Butcher Workmen of North America in Chicago in 1941. Together they founded Chicago’s Vernon Park Church of God in 1956, and for the next twelve years were closely associated with Dr. Martin Luther King’s peace movement, joining him at the March on Washington in 1963, the Selma to Montgomery Marches in 1965, and the Chicago demonstration in 1966.
In the early 1960s Eleanor Roosevelt appointed Addie to a position on the Labor Legislation Committee on… Read More

Description:
Against a stark horizon in a harsh climate, settlers in Nebraska everywhere erected monuments to their optimism. The buildings pictured in Dreams in Dry Places are not just famous landmarks like the State Capitol but also humble farmhouses, barns, grain elevators, courthouses, banks, churches, stores, and theaters. They represent every kind of architecture to be found in Nebraska--folk, high-style, commercial, residential, pioneer, and modern; the unexpected and the familiar, the poetic and the prosaic, good and bad. Caught by Roger Bruhn's camera, these structures always suggest the spiritual resources of their builders and inhabitants, who struggled for a livelihood on the Great Plains.Dreams in Dry Places has an architecture of its own, beginning and ending with images of the natural landscape and in between revealing unexpected continuities among disparate structures and settings, juxtapositions of forms, and the vanities and vagaries of architectural style. Exterior and interior shots are…
