FLORENCE IN SEPIA
INDEX PAGE
A CD was created
for the third City and Book international conference held in
Florence, 3-5 June 2004, with the Gabinetto Vieusseux in the
Palazzo Strozzi and in the English Cemetery, Piazzale
Donatello. Recalling that the American sculptor Hiram Powers'
son, Longworth Powers, was a Florentine photographer, and
because I have fallen heir to a portfolio crammed full of
Florentine and other sepia photographs from the nineteenth
century, I have chosen to digitize these and to exhibit them
at the time of the City and the Book III on the English
Cemetery. This CD and website first discusses Elizabeth
Barrett Browning, Casa Guidi, and the Piazzale Donatello,
cataloguing the Swiss-owned 'English' Cemetery's international
and ecumenical tombs Then it discusses Mother Agnes Mason,
C.H.F., of the Oxford Movement Anglican Community of the Holy
Family, whose collection of sepia photographs it catalogues.
The essays and e-books are illustrated and keyed to the map of Florence.
