Description

Photographs of Guercino's sketches from various cities in Germany including Bremen, Braunschweig, Darmstadt, Weimar, Frankfurt, and Leipzig. Many of the prints have stamps on the verso, such as the Nazi Germany Reichsadler as the emblem for "Louis Helo, Hotphotograph, Weimar," and other stamps including, "Photo Välti, Weimar," "Herzog Anton Ulrich Museum," "Fr van der Smiffen, Darmstadt" and "Reproduktion nur mit Genehmigung, Frankfurt." Although the individual sketches are unidentified, there are annotations noting what collection or insitution they belong to, including the Städosches Museum, Leipzig and the Schlossmuseum, Weimar. There is also correspondence between Mahon and Catherine Bailey from the BBC, dated April 1991.
