1912167301912. Photograph album of Scotland and Wales circa 1912 documents rural village life agricultural labor and landscape in the Galloway region and coastal Wales through the perspective of a young female amateur photographer. The album records pastoral environments local inhabitants and regional landmarks alongside personal inscriptions and social exchanges capturing both observational and intimate aspects of early twentieth-century life in Britain. The material provides visual evidence of daily labor practices rural settings and informal portraiture within a period of gradual modernization in these regions.<br /> <br /> Photograph album. Scotland and Wales circa 1912. Small format album 6 x 5 inches containing 27 gelatin silver print photographs approximately 3.5 x 2.5 inches each mounted across 58 pages accompanied by four handwritten inscriptions from friends and an ownership inscription reading "To Maggie with Love & Best wishes for a Merry Xmas." The photographs depict identifiable locations in Galloway including Threave Castle Loch Ken Loch Dee Bridge of Dee Dundrennan Abbey and Carlingwark Loch as well as a coastal view identified as Llandudno. Scenes include agricultural labor such as "Sheep Washing" showing workers managing livestock at a riverside and "Salmon Netting" depicting eight laborers resting while working a fast-moving river. Additional images capture moor landscapes harbors and shipyard activity. Human subjects include an older man identified as "The Laird o' Meikleyetto" seated outdoors with a pipe and dog along with group portraits such as "Studies in Expressions" showing eight children and a dog posed together with varied expressions. Many photographs are captioned in ink with titles such as "A Galloway Moor" "Raider's Brig." and "Raider's Land." The album also includes portraits of family members and reflects experimentation in photographic printing with variation in tonal quality and technique across images.<br /> <br /> The album documents a period in which rural regions of Scotland retained agricultural and village-based labor structures while increasingly being recorded through amateur photography. The inclusion of inscriptions featuring poetic reflections on friendship and life-such as "All life is a school a preparation a purpose."-indicates the album's dual function as both visual record and social keepsake. The combination of landscape labor and portraiture situates the compiler within a network of observation and personal memory-making during the early twentieth century. Textured paper boards with green faux leather covering and inset portrait on front; wear to extremities; final ten leaves detached; photographs generally well-preserved with strong clarity; overall good to very good condition. A cohesive album documenting rural British life and early amateur photographic practice. unknown

14750'Bangor Wales Decr. 1886.'. The lecture which is unpublished is an interesting personal statement by a neglected Victorian painter who died tragically young. A rather impressive example of his work in Turneresque style titled 'The Heart of the Hills' is in the Maidstone Museum. The lecture is 30pp. 8vo in a ruled notebook with embossed black wraps. In good condition on aged paper with some wear and discoloration. Ownership inscription of 'W. G. Shrubsole Bangor Decr. 1886' inside the front wrap. The first page is headed 'The Ideal in Art. by W. G. Shrubsole Dec. 1886.' Following the lecture is a later note by Shrubsole stating 'This lecture was delivered at Bangor N. Wales in Dec. 1886 in connection with the Menai Society of Science and Literature. W.G.S.' The text carries a number of deletions and emendations. Shrubsole begins by asking his audience to make allowance for the 'difficulties besetting this treatment' of his 'vast subject' 'owing to the complexity of the various considerations involved which renders brevity the greatest difficulty to be encountered in such an undertaking'. His aim has been 'to direct attention and to induce reflection rather than to be didactic but if I have failed to imbue this discourse with that character - if I appear somewhat dogmatic here and there my apology must be that my dogmatism is the result of earnest conviction that the subject of Art is one on which I feel deeply - one which I have more practical knowledge of than of any other and one to which I have from childhood given the most earnest and unremitting attention endeavoured to grasp the principles of and the relation of those principles to the other emerging streams of knowledge and thought which commingling form and feed the fount of higher life. The vital importance of Art as a tributary to the higher-life is yet to be recognized in this country; the few spasmodic attempts made hitherto have failed to pierce the adamantine husk of ignorance and indifference which enshrouds the subject in the minds of those towards whom we turn in vain'. Loosely inserted in the notebook is a pen drawing on 17.5 x 12.5cm paper titled 'W. E. Bacon Sept 10th. 1880' and signed 'W. G. Shrubsole'. It shows the head and shoulders of a bearded man smoking a pipe in artist's broad-brimmed hat buttoned coat and muffler. On the reverse is a pencil sketch of a street of Tudor buildings. Another loosely-inserted item is a 'Synopsis' 1p. 12mo in Shrubsole's hand under the headings 'Colour faculty comparatively modern' and 'Colour as a physical Science'. A third loosely inserted item is a cutting of a magazine article by Shrubsole under his initials 'W. G. S.' titled 'KITTLES' and concerning his pet cat. 'Bangor [Wales] Decr. 1886.' paperback
