1894519199B.T. Batsford London 1894. 1st Edition. Unframed Photograph Print. Very Good Condition. Bodleian Library's entrance in the Court of the Schools dates to 1610; part of Thomas Bodley's restoration of Oxford's university library. Charles Latham was one of the most influential architectural photographers of the late Victorian and Edwardian periods renowned for his evocative images of country houses and formal gardens across Britain and Italy. His work helped define the visual language of architectural publishing and preservation. His first major commission was for J. Alfred Gotch's Architecture of the Renaissance in England 1894 from which this photograph is taken where his collotype plates captured the texture and grandeur of Elizabethan and Jacobean houses with remarkable clarity. Latham later helped shape the visual identity of Country Life magazine which we always have in stock photographing both historic estates and newly built homes. His images became central to the magazine's appeal combining editorial elegance with technical innovation in print reproduction. Each of Charles Latham's architectural photographs captures a singular moment of craftsmanship patronage or domestic ambition from heraldic chimney-pieces to formal garden fronts. Whether collegiate civic or aristocratic these buildings speak to the stylistic confidence of their age. Many remain inhabited studied or preserved today making each image not just a historical record but a quietly resonant portrait of continuity. Published in 1894 this fine Victorian-period image has been carefully removed from Gotch's monumental work. Printed in Leipzig Germany by Sinsel & Co. on thick cream-coloured paper this image reflects the firm's hallmark clarity and tonal depth featuring the building's name in sepia ink below a ruled border with Latham's beautifully composed black-and-white photograph taking centre place.

186841787Printing in gold type. The origins are Ontario Oxford County at least two of the names checked Sylvanus Nichols and Smith Stringham can be found in the attached directory. Printed in gold type the documents consists of three paragraphs beginning: "Moved by D. Matheson seconded by Mr. Pitt-- Whereas great destitution exists among a large number of the inhabitants of our Sister Province of Nova Scotia caused by the failure of the Fisheries which in previous years have afforded employment and given the only means of obtaining a livelihood to thousands of our fellow subjects in the Province who are now owing to such failure in a state of want and starvation." After the printed paragraphs are approximately 90 signatures of people who have pledged to contribute money highest $2 lowest 25 cents to the people of Nova Scotia in need. The County Council Chamber may be that of Saint John in New Brunswick. In 1868 there was a severe depression in the province caused by late spring ice on the coast a low price for fish a late planting of crops and a poor harvest. This document shows that in spite of Nova Scotia's major qualms in confederation other provinces were sympathetic nonetheless to the plight of Nova Scotians under duress and privation. In confederation the federal government was given authority over the fisheries. This led to the establishment of the Department of Marine and Fisheries and the Dominion Fisheries Act of 1868.
