Internally clean. A seemingly unrecorded photographic annual for a prominent African-American dance school in Jim Crow Missouri. The Les Pierrettes Dance School was a well-respected institution for the training of young dancers in St. Louis. The school's director identified in the present work as "Maitre d'Ecole" was Anita W. Roland a prominent dancer with experience on the stage in North America Latin America and Europe. The work opens with a couple of introductory poems and a table of contents; thereafter the work features almost sixty dance students both male and female in two-page spreads with a poem on the verso and a photographic portrait of the students in their dance uniforms on the rectos. This section is described on the table of contents as "A group of mirth-laden girls and boys make truth-laden statements about themselves" indicating the biographical poems were written by each of the students. The middle of the work features the dancing school staff and "Studio Demonstrators" i.e. dance instructors with some biographical details about each person. This is followed by a long section of well wishes and congratulatory messages from the dance students' family friends and the larger community. The rear of the work also includes a section of advertisements from local businesses. The present work was edited by Anita Roland's husband Philip Roland here listed as the Director of Program Activities for the dance school and editor of Foto-Feature.

1916156401916. Collection of 43 original vintage photographs documenting the Public School Gardening Movement in Queens New York City 1916-1920 provides concentrated visual evidence of Progressive Era educational reform linking urban environmental transformation to child development and civic formation. Produced at the height of the national school gardening movement which flourished between 1900 and 1920 these photographs capture the integration of nature study playground reform tenement house activism and City Beautiful urbanism into the daily life of immigrant and working class children. The images support research in Progressive Era reform environmental education immigration history urban studies and the construction of civic identity through public schooling demonstrating how agricultural labor was reframed as moral physical and democratic training within dense metropolitan neighborhoods.<br /> <br /> Forty three original photographs primarily silver gelatin prints Queens New York City 1916-1920. Most measure approximately 2 by 4 inches with several bearing manuscript dates between 1916 and 1920 and occasional notations identifying individuals or activities. The photographs depict schoolchildren planting seeds watering beds harvesting produce carrying baskets of vegetables and working collaboratively under teacher supervision in organized garden plots. Visual evidence indicates structured rows tool distribution and adult oversight underscoring the pedagogical framework rather than informal recreation. The movement in New York was shaped by the work of reformer Frances Griscom Parsons who established the Children's School Farm in Hell's Kitchen in 1902 to provide immigrant youth living amid warehouses factories and docks with access to cultivated land. Parsons articulated gardening as instruction in "brotherhood cooperation self respect and the dignity of labor" envisioning children as "little farmers" rehearsing democratic citizenship within an idealized urban microcosm structured into "boroughs" with its own elected governance. The Queens photographs reflect the diffusion of this model into outer borough public schools during the final years of the First World War and immediate postwar period.<br /> <br /> The timing of the archive coincides with national concern over urban crowding industrialization and the assimilation of immigrant communities as well as wartime food production campaigns that reinforced agricultural instruction in schools. School gardens functioned simultaneously as environmental intervention civic laboratory and instrument of Americanization embedding Progressive reform ideals directly into children's bodily practice and daily routine. The photographs materially document how educational institutions operationalized nature study principles and urban reform agendas on the ground offering granular evidence of children's participation in structured agricultural labor within New York City's public school system. Minor edge wear and light surface handling marks to several prints; occasional light fading consistent with age; manuscript annotations legible. Overall very good condition. A cohesive visual archive illuminating the intersection of urban reform environmental education and immigrant childhood in Progressive Era New York. unknown
189013391890. Ink and gouache with yellow heightening on fibrous brown laid paper with a Jaipur Court Fee tax stamp in purple ink on the recto and the Jaipur State Council Stamp dated June 5 1894 and the 1889 Jaipur State Council stamp in black ink on the verso 12 1/2 x 9 inches 318 x 230 mm. Toning handling creases and minor scattered surface soiling throughout. There are scattered coeval Hindi inscriptions in ink on the recto. The first revenue stamps in India were issued in the mid-nineteenth century during the Raj and they are still being issued to this day. Apart from issues for the whole of India many princely states provinces and other states also had or still have their own revenue stamp issues. Before independence Indian revenue stamps were closely modeled on similar designs from Great Britain as is the case with this carriage motif stamp from Jaipur. <br /> <br /> The stamps were issued to denote various denominations including rupees and annas. An anna or Änna was a currency unit formerly used in British India equal to 1â„16 of a rupee. It was subdivided into four old Paisa or twelve pies thus there were 192 pies in a rupee. When the rupee was decimalized and subdivided into 100 new paise one anna was therefore equivalent to 6.25 paise. This particular stamp was used as evidence of court taxes remitted for property dealings. unknown

Acquaforte e acquatinta stampata con inchiostri blu, rosso, giallo e nero. Nel margine inferiore, sotto l'immagine, a sinistra: Schall px. a destra: Descourtis st. Due donne nude sedute in riva a un fiume, impegnate a leggere una lettera, mentre due giovani uomini nascosti nelle rocce dietro cercano di rubare i loro vestiti con una canna da pesca. Questa stampa a colori meticolosamente realizzata riproduce un dipinto a olio di Jean-Frédéric Schall, un artista meglio conosciuto per le sue scene pastorali e vagamente erotiche. Durante la Rivoluzione francese (1789-99), il mercato delle stampe a colori di lusso declinò, poiché i soggetti stuzzicanti e i segni del lusso erano considerati immorali. Quando gli atteggiamenti si rilassarono intorno al 1800, stampatori come Descourtis realizzarono alcune stampe a colori usando piastre multiple per stratificare inchiostri colorati come avevano fatto prima della Rivoluzione. Descurtis era allievo di Jean-Francois Janinet, che è considerato dalla critica artistica uno dei più importanti incisori a colori francesi e si mise in evidenza per le sue innovazioni tecniche, quali l'acquatinta in quadricromia, oltreché per lo stile caratterizzato dall'intensità dei colori Tuttavia, questo processo lungo e costoso fu presto sostituito dalla colorazione a mano che i lavoratori potevano realizzare più facilmente ed economicamente. Esemplare in ottimo stato di conservazione. Wash manner etching and engraving printed in blue, red, yellow, and black inks. In lower margin, beneath the image, at left: Schall p.x at right: Descourtis s.t Two naked woman sitting by a river and busy reading a letter, while two young men hidden in the rocks behind are trying to steal their clothes with a fishing rod. This meticulously crafted color print reproduces an oil painting by Jean-Frédéric Schall, an artist best known for his pastoral and mildly erotic scenes.During the French Revolution (1789–99), the market for deluxe color prints declined, as titillating subjects and signs of luxury were considered immoral. When attitudes relaxed around 1800, printmakers like Descourtis made a few color prints using multiple plates to layer tinted inks as they had before the Revolution. Descourtis learned his method of multiple-plate color printing from Jean Frarnçois Janinet and like him used toolwork on the plate rather than aquatint, an acid immersion process used to create general areas of shading. However, this time-consuming and expensive process was soon replaced by hand coloring that workers could more cheaply and easily accomplish. Very good example. Portalis & Béraldi 3; Model/Springer p. 50, plate 20.
