Letter from the EditorsWelcome to the autumn/winter 2011issue of International View. Whilstediting this edition an overriding themeemerged, that of the portrait. From theearliest examples of primitive art to thehigher echelons of the currentcontemporary art market, people havealways sought to capture their ownlikeness. A portrait, however, is somuch more than a visual record of thesitter; look a little deeper and they canprovide a reflection of the subject’spersonality, status and socialbackground.Bob Gomel (American b. 1933)In the mid-19th century, Americanpaul mccartney and fansGelatin silver print (for LIFE Magazine)portraiture began to move away fromOne of the photographs from the collection of Gail Cameron to be offeredsolely being a privilege of the wealthyOctober 21, 2011.upper classes. Untrained local artistsbegan to offer their services to theyounger members of society. The resulting bold, naïve images offer us an insight into an important period ofAmerican history. Moving on a century and the same could be said of the images put together by GailCameron, a reporter at LIFE magazine. Throughout her work, she built a collection of photographic portraitsof some of the most pivotal personalities of the day, single images each with a strong story to tell, but thattogether outline a period of social change unlike any other.A single portrait can capture its sitter’s qualities for an eternity; the same can also be said of a truly greatcollection. Each work of art reflects a little of the character of the collector, however, it is when they arelooked at as a whole that the personality really begins to shine through. The Edward Redfield paintings fromthe collection of Nobel Prize winner Pearl S. Buck show a peaceful side to an otherwise very strong,determined figure.Enthusiastic collectors are always happy to share their passion with others. Director of the Fine Art Society,Simon Edsor, provides an interesting insight on his role helping the Forbes family share their collection withinOld Battersea House with art lovers throughout the UK and beyond. Through the generosity of Philiadelphianphilanthropist Jack Wolgin almost everyone in Philadelphia has been able to share in the great collector’spassion for the best of 20th century art - a series of monumental pieces of public art will make sure Wolgin'slegacy endures for years to come.We recognize how many different stories there are to tell over a seaso - from the snapshots of Americansocial history to the formation of a major UK art collection. Throughout this issue we can only share a briefglimpse of these stories and, hopefully, whet your appetite enough to encourage you to explore further as ourupcoming sales approach.Alex DoveTara Theune DavisPLEASE NOTE:The currency exchangerate at the time of going topress was US 1.60 GBP1.The ‘sold for’ prices shownfor both Freeman’s andLyon & Turnbull includethe buyers’ premium.3

The Library of the RCS in IrelandRare Books, Maps, Manuscripts & Photographs September 07, 2011 EdinburghRAPIDLY EVOLVING technological change requires blue skythinking. Library managers are confronting and rising to thechallenges of the new electronic age, divesting themselves ofphysical books and investing massively in ebooks and onlineaccess. Paradoxically, this radical approach is paying dividends,enfranchising a new readership and leading to a huge rise inlibrary use by technologically savvy students and researchers.Hard economic times are also forcing hard choices. Confrontedby reduced budgets, libraries are increasingly compelled to takestrategic decisions about their future direction and priorities.Some libraries, especially those with strong specialisedcollections, are reviewing their holdings and deciding whichareas to focus their increasingly stretched resources on.Occasionally this will necessitate decisions difficult for anylibrary professional – to sell material that falls outside their corecollections. Although seen by some as a cardinal sin, this isenabling institutions to add to collections for which they are bothknown and used, and acquire new material that complementsand enhances their existing holdings.Lyon & Turnbull is currently assisting the Library of the RoyalCollege of Surgeons in Ireland in just this manner. From itsfoundation in 1784 the RCSI established a library, levying oneguinea annually from members. The library was amassed bypurchases and bequests over the following centuries andcontinued to be the working library of the College until the mid20th century. The early printings cover significant developmentsin the history of European medicine and surgery, as well asnatural history
