COLNAGHI PAPERS. Vol. III. Album containing letters from Dominic Ellis Colnaghi to his parents, and one letter (f. 401) from Katie, daughter of D. E. Colnaghi, to her grandmother; 1874-1881. This third volume, of similar nature and content to the first two, comprises Colnaghi's time as British Consul in Florence, and (from 1881) Consul-General for North Italy. These letters include numerous sketches, long descriptions of Ancona, Siena, Bologna, Ravenna, Forli and Cutigliano, cuttings from Italian newspapers, autobiographical summaries, and accounts of visiting dignitaries and royals. D. E. Colnaghi's father died in 1879, his mother in 1881, thus bringing to an end the correspondence collected within these volumes.
ff. 473. Letters apparently formerly numbered 1-129 on album pages, although fragments of other letters fixed into the album also survive, with former content annotations.
