User Conditions:

Physical Characteristics:

Dimensions:

Album: 250 x 305 x 40 mm

Format:

Maroon and red half leather album containing one hundred and eighteen prints hand-cut and pasted onto card pages.

Materials:

Card, black ink, gelatin silver prints.

Condition:

While the binding is still sturdy for the most part – aside from extensive scuffing and losses at all edges, particularly upper spine – the individual card pages are extensively foxed and discoloured throughout. The lower right corner of page 13–14 has broken off entirely.

Many of the individual images are faded and some show signs of surface losses.

Foliation:

The images have been numbered 1–118 alongside each image in pencil and paginated 1–47 in pencil in the upper right corner. Some additional image sequencing in pencil in the first twenty nine pages of the album (e.g. a–d on each page) has been crossed out.

Process:

Gelatin silver prints

Binding:

The album is bound in maroon half leather format, which is heavily scuffed along the spine, particularly at the upper spine.

This binding likely dates to its presentation to Lord Curzon and indicates the title of the album with gilt stamp ‘ Photos’ ‘South Persia’. The binding also features linen joints and hand-stitching.
