Ruth - thanks for pointing me to the Braun catalogue.

Information request: Adolphe Braun/Braun et Cie photographs of the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel

I have tried to find other institutions who may have a full series or part of it in any size but particularly in this larger scale. I see that the…See More
Seeking Photographic Postcards of Cowes I.O.W
HiI am looking for photographic postcards of Cowes, Isle of Wight, any age or subject. I did a photographic project for my degree show at university using postcards of Southampton. This work has now been chosen for a graduate exhibition at Quay Arts, Newport I.O.W. I have been asked to expand the work by sourcing postcards of Cowes as it connects the island to the mainland and the theme is bridging/connections (and Red Funnel ferry is sponsoring us!). I have a relatively small budget to play…See More

I became interested in the psychology of collecting and made a website mimicking those created by collectors who wish to share their collections and interest with a wider audience. The website is in addition to showing the postcards themselves at my end of year gallery show. On…See More

For my final year project I have decided to look at the history of Southampton through the use of historical photographs, postcards and other documents.
