Copied by the sun: Talbotype illustrations to the annals of the artists of Spain by sir William Stirling Maxwell
Abstract
"In addition to seven of the examples taken from the illustrated volume of the Annals, for the first time this exhibition will bring together the various materials that Stirling employed in creating the book, as well as information regarding the background events surrounding the project, workshop proofs of the talbotypes and models that were used to create the images (sculptures, drawings, engravings and books). The project will be completed with two volumes co-published by Museo del Prado and Centro de Estudios Europa Hispánica, one featuring studies and a catalogue raisonné of the photographs that make up Stirling's book, and another volume that recreates an ideal facsimile of the Talbotype Illustrations, one that has been digitally constructed in order to provide an idea of what the book may have been like when it was produced and before the illustrations began to fade."
