6461Offered here are two one-page Fred Holland Day manuscripts and two letters to Day both 1890 see descriptions following concerning a plan along with his close friend Louise Imogen Guiney to put up a plaque in memory of William Hazlitt at Hazlitt’s church. FHD 1864-1933 was a prominent American photographer and publisher circling in both literary and photography circles in the late Nineteenth Century and co-founder of Copeland & Day a Boston publisher who produced Beardsely’s Salome and about 100 titles. 1 Two autograph letters signed: the first dated Sept. 10 1890 from Edwin F. Dyke Maidstone from the Vicarage Sept two pages. “. if you will send me the design for the brass tablet you would desire to place in my church in memory of William Hazlett†and will be content to omit the last 3 lines of the enclosed inscription I will see what I can to fall in with your wishes. etc.†The second letter is dated Sept. 9 1890 two pages from Nigel Wade at St. Anne’s Rectory in Soho answering Day’s request to erect a Hazlitt memorial. Wade replies in part “You mention that you found there is no memorial to William Hazlitt in “Anne’sâ€. you can scarcely be aware that in the will arrangement of the Church fund we carefully requested that a William Hazlitt large memorial stone. be erected etc†He goes on to say he can’t think it possible to establish a new memorial and returns the manuscript Day sent him etc. 2 Two corrected manuscript pages in FHD’s hand of the inscription he and Guiney wanted to have on the plaque. The first 4 x 5 inches in Day’s hand: “To William Hazlitt date of birth and death crossed out. 2 sic young Americans in the year of grace 1890 with heartfelt homage dedicate this brass underscore line Keep time in dark Soho what once was Hazlitt/ Truth having there her lover and outrider/ Forgets not her great power herself shall claim it.†This was the infamous three lines which Dyke see above asks Day to delete. The second 4 x 5 1/2 inches on blue paper and red ink has changes to the plaque and a big X over the last three lines! A rather elongated story but a significant one with Day writing in earnest but meeting some opposition and a fascinating record herewith of the process in which Day was committed to completing the project. unknown
6463Eight letters from Mary F. Macareth to F. Holland Day comprising replies and queries to his letters over a sixth month period Aug. 11 1890 to Feb. 13 1891 regarding her father George Macareth who was a close associate with John Keats in early days of studying medicine. Fred Holland Day was an enthusiastic collector of John Keats amassed a large collection of Keats and Keatsiana and he led the campaign which resulted in the first memorial to Keats placed in Hampstead Church in 1894. These letters were written by Keats during his stays in London and Madrid while he was doing especially comprehensive research on Keats. In these letters it is clear that Day was trying to obtain Keats-related material from Macareth and the exchanges indicate a rather straightforward individual trying at once to help a prominent figure as well as trying to safeguard her own interests see below. Eight letters 12mo very good or better condition all but one are accompanied by the original envelope addressed to “F. Holland Day Esqre with the following addresses: 39 Medford Square London W.C. 18 Tavistock Street Medford Square London W.C. c/o Muring Brothers & Co S. Muchopyate Street London. E.C. Grand Hotel de la Paiz Madrid; and “ Normyâ€Mass America1 Aug 11 1890 3pp; 2 Aug 21 1890. 28 pages in total. Some brief snatches: aug 11 daughter of George Macareth “I have a pencil drawing which I believe was done by Keats or Severn whey they were all young men. I do not think it a flattering likeness.†Oct 11th. “I have this morning received the photograph of Keats forwarded from Elvington. She writes about several paintings which may be of some interest she will write to her brother as well and then: “Will you excuse me if I ask plainly what is your position or calling in life as I should then feel more freedom in my correspondence. Of course you are a perfect stranger to me so I trust will take my question in the right light.†Oct 17: “I received the enclosed photograph from my sister. I think the same as the one I have. It is a very good one and represents my Father at the age of about 70. I have received an autograph of my Father’s which I enclose. I fear I did not answer your question about the pencil drawing which you asked in your last letter. the lost miniature is not at all the same. I know the drawing is perfectly safe only I cannot get to it at present. Dec 4: I received your kind letter yesterday and am extremely obliged to you for lending me the prints from my Father’s picture which I think are very good. Feb 13 1891: Dear sir. I am now in possession of the pencil drawing of my Father and shall be glad to forward it to you if you still wish to see it. . I think it was done by Severn.†George Mackereth who kept trying to discard his middle name Wilson were not only fellow students but shared accommodation with Keats for a year from October 1815 at 28 St Thomas Street now marked by a blue plaque though the house is long gone. To be sure FHD was saddened to here it was done by Severn and not Keats. A most scarce and interesting archive indeed with plenty to mined here on both F. Holland Day as well as John Keats. unknown
6462Various sizes see below on art paper all 1894. Offered here are three fine watercolor charcoal and ink sketches by William Goodrich Beal 1855-1919 artist specializing in etching in the Boston area and a friend of F. Holland Day who did at least three drawings meant to extra-illustrate a book from Day’s collection of Keats books. #1 6 1/4 x 8 1/4 inches “Keats Surgery at Edmonton. Aug 94 Dr. Hammond’s House.†#2 5 /4 x 6 1/2 inches “Grave of Thomas Hammond Edmonton Aug. 94. #3 10 3/4 x 7 1/2 inches “The Knocker on the door of Keats’ House at Edmonton Drawn for my Friend F. Holland Day. W. Goodrich Beal Edmonton Aug 94.†FHD was an enthusiastic collector of John Keats and led the campaign which resulted in the first memorial to Keats being placed n Hampstead Church in 1894. William Goodrich Beal 1855-1919 painter and etcher was active in the Boston area during the late 19th century exhibiting at the Chicago Art Institute and elsewhere. His etchings and paintings are in major collections including the National Gallery of Art in London. A fantastic grouping of drawings commissioned by Day to extra-illustrate a book on Keats in his private library. However to my knowledge the project never came to fruition as the Keats drawings remained unused. #1 with very tiny corner loss some slight toning all very good or better. A scarce grouping which provides a tangible historical record of FHD’s passion with Keats. unknown
18896249Paris 1889. 11 Ω x 9 9nches. Circa 1889 Day became intrigued with the French author Balzac and during a trip to Paris painted three watercolors while he was researching Balzac and making connections with other artists and authors. As well he photographed these houses and some of those original prints still turn up on the market. This is a wonderful watercolor painting of a house which probably captured his eye based on its whimsical architecture as well as the placard affixed to the front which reads “Defense D’Afficher†a phrase coined in the 1700’s which basically means “do not post any advertisements here.†A wonderful watercolor executed by F. Holland Day an avid publisher book collector and photographer F. Holland Day was a dedicated aesthete and well-known figure in turn-of-the-century Boston. He was one of the earliest advocates of Pictorial photography in America and like Alfred Stieglitz with whom he corresponded until they had a serious disagreement around 1902 he tirelessly wrote articles mounted exhibitions and encouraged like-minded photographers who supported the medium’s artistic potential. Fine condition. Matted in a glass frame with a smaller window which hides the bottom inch or so unpainted area. A rare and historically significant watercolor painting by this polyglot of photography book publishing and art. unknown
67498 x 6 inches. Offered here is a group of 22 proof sheets 18 printed from the Club of Odd Volumes 1890 Constitution for which Day became one of the charter members in 1887 and was elected to the nine-member board of directors. This design was copied by the Rowfant Club for their own Constitution. A couple have been gathered into signatures. Near fine. unknown
189068061890. One 8 x 11 inch sheet. Offered here is an unusual scrapbook specimen likely assembled by F. Holland Day coming together with Day collection relating to John Keats: two leaf specimens mounted with captions in ink script: 1 “Leaf of the Mulberry Tree Wentworth Place Hampstead†and 2 “Leaves from the grave of Keats.†In 1818 after the tragic loss of his younger brother to tuberculosis Keats moved into what was then called Wentworth Place in Hampstead London with his friend Charles Brown the tree is still there for visitors to see. The Mulberry tree believed to date from the 17th century was situated just outside the window from where Keats wrote in the grounds of Keats House which he alluded to in a July 1818 letter to his friend John Hamilton Reynolds. He stayed there for 17 months before leaving for Italy where he died in Rome aged twenty-five on February 23rd 1821 and is buried at the Cemitero Acattolicoóthe a Protestant Cemetery in Rome. One of the three examples is not present apparently another leaf from Keats’ grave has been lost and interestingly the glue used bears some of the veins of the leaf. “A fascinating and colorful figure and an extraordinary artist F. Holland Day was a bibliophile publisher and photographer. He assembled one of the largest collections in the world of materials relating to the life and work of John Keats and in 1894 traveled to England to dedicate the first ever memorial to the poet. The audience for the dedication ceremony included Oscar Wilde Aubrey Beardsley George Moore and William Butler Yeats. But it is for his photography that Day is best known. His stunningly original brilliantly executed and sometimes controversial photographic images of blacks children and allegorical subjects brought him fame. During the significant 1895-1905 period in photographic history his fame rivaled that of Alfred Stieglitz.†from Library of Congress. unknown
