Elizabeth Barrett Browning twice describes the silver arrow of the Arno River shooting through the city of Florence. In Casa Guidi Windows I.52-59

    I can but muse in hope upon this shore
      Of golden Arno as it shoots away
    Straight through the heart of Florence, 'neath the four
      Bent bridges, seeming to strain off like bows,
    And tremble, while the arrowy undertide
      Shoots on and cleaves the marble as it goes,
    And strikes up palace-walls on either side,
      And froths the cornice out in glittering rows,
    With doors and windows quaintly multiplied,
       And terrace-sweeps, and gazers upon all,
    By whom if flower or kerchief were thrown out
      From any lattice there, the same would fall
    Into the river underneath no doubt,
      It runs so close and fast, 'twixt wall and wall.
    How beautiful.

                                            Beautiful
   The city lay along the ample vale,
    Cathedral, tower and palace, piazza and street,
    The river trailing like a silver cord
    Through all, and curling loosely, both before
    And after, over the whole stretch of land
    Sown whitely up and down its opposite slopes
    With farms and villas.

Hiram Powers Papers:

1. Letters between Perkins and Powers are located in three repositories:

I. The Marsh Collection at the Special Collections Department, Bailey-Howe Library, University of Vermont has letters from 1847 to 1871.
II. The Powers’ Papers at the Archives of American Art at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, DC has numerous holdings on the artist.
III. The New York Historical Society.

2. Documents and letters on the Longworth Powers’ line are preserved in the Powers’ Family Collection at the Winter Park Public Library in Florida. It is part of the Winter Park History and Archives Collection. A grandson, named Hiram Powers, who married Rose Mills, was active in real estate in the beautiful lakes around the Winter Park and Orlando area. He was also a Professor of Literature at what is now Rollins College in Winter Park which therefore has original statuary by the sculptor.

3. Louise Greenough Powers (1838-1929) married Alfred Ibbotson. She maintained several diaries that remained in the family. Louise and Alfred built a villa near her father’s in Florence. Their daughter, Mary Florence Ibbotson, married Henri Michahelles of Florence and they had four children: Ernest, Mark, Roger and Christine. Dentler had access to the original diaries and information in private family correspondence from these Michahelles grandchildren.

4. A miscellaneous bound collection called the Sidney Brooks Letterbook. Pages 2-10, 30-31, 56, 60-61 and 79 hold direct correspondence between the two men.

5. The Miner Kilbourne Kellog Papers 1841-1863 are deposited in the Manuscript and Archives Collection of the Indiana Historical Society.

6. Letters from Powers to Eaton, 1845-1867, concerning these statues are found in The Eaton-Mayhew Papers in the Library of Maryland History belonging to the Maryland Historical Society.

7. The University Portrait Collection for the Harvard University Art Museums in Cambridge, Massachusetts contain several photographs of Powers and of his statues in their Archives and Manuscript repositories.

8. There is a Hiram Powers’ scrapbook of printed American articles and advertisements titled Notices of Powers Works, 1847-1849, 1873 and 1876 among a collection on Hiram Powers and Powers’ Family Papers transferred from the National Museum of American Art to the Smithsonian Institution between 1975 and 1985.

We invite photo essays of other historic cemeteries, particularly those in England, Ireland, Switzerland and America, for inclusion here.

Our 'English' Cemetery was once like a garden and filled with trees. Our Icelandic participant, Kristin Bragadottir, of the National and University Library, has sent us the following photographs of the cemetery in Reykjavik, visited by William Morris and Daniel Willard Fiske. On Iceland the sheep have destroyed the trees, the land being barren, except in walled cemeteries. The Black Death reached Iceland fifty years later than Europe for there had been no ships, from lack of wood, with which to sail the Atlantic, though when the Vikings had reached that island it had been thickly forested. Yet in the tombs in Reykjavik one can see the same shapes, the same materials, as are used for tombs in Florence.
