- Title
SOUTHWORTH & HAWES COLLECTION.
- Abstract
The article focuses on the collections of two leading daguerreotypists in Boston, Massachusetts, which include Albert Sands Southworth and Josiah Johnson Hawes. In 1935, Edward Southworth Hawes, the son and nephew of the collectors, sold the collection to various collectors and art facilities. Most of the portraits of celebrities went to the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Other objects in the collection, including the correspondence and papers of the firm which dates back to 1841 when Southworth began business with a certain Joseph Pennell, were bought by Alden Scott Boyer, who presented them to the Eastman House.
