Photographic prints, 1991-1992 |
|
|
|
In 1991-1992, the Getty Research Institute created a set of 5 x 7 inch contact prints from Stone's negatives. Some negatives
also have 8 x 10 inch enlargements and some have multiple contact prints of varying tonalities or quality. The prints are
labeled with transcriptions of Stone's notes taken from the nitrate negative sleeves. These notes include Stone's negative
number and an identification of the image, as well as the date in many cases. The photographic prints are primarily from the
negatives made on Stone's 1930-1931 European trip, but a small number derive from Stone's negatives of modern American sculpture
made in 1929, and his copies of Edizioni Brogi photographs.

Primarily photographs of architecture and in-situ sculpture, taken in August and September 1930. The photographs from the
British Museum and Somerset House document antiquities, manuscripts, sculpture, prints and drawings, and paintings and photographs.
The emphasis is on portraiture of great figures in history: rulers and political figures; scientists, explorers, literary
figures.
