| Description | This series contains Hayes' collected sets of images of Reynolds' various known sketchbooks. In most cases he acquired both photographs and photocopies of the books.
The sketchbooks documented include those in the following public and private collections at the time of Hayes' research (where known, it has been noted in the individual catalogue records if the sketchbooks have changed ownership):
-British Museum
-F.C.B. Copland-Griffiths
-Mrs. Gertrude Dennis
-Parsons
-Fogg Museum
-Metropolitan Museum of Art
-Morgan Library
-Soane Museum
-Yale Centre for British Art
-Royal Academy
Please note that the dates given for files in this series refer to an estimate of when the photographs, photocopies or transcriptions were made. These estimates have been made based on Hayes' correspondence with various institutions, photographers and owners of the original sketchbooks which can be found at JTH/3/1 in this archive collection. |
