René d'Harnoncourt w/Henry Moore and other at Philip Johnson's glass house, New Canaan, CT. Photos by James Thrall Soby. Incl. cover letter. Photographic printouts, undated
Scope and Contents
D'Harnoncourt's father is again the primary subject here. Folder titles include all documented information, including name of photographer, locale, and other individuals in the photograph. Most of the sitters in the group photograph that includes the artist John Marin remain unidentified. The "Carr relatives" folder consists of six photographs of d'Harnoncourt's maternal relatives. While most of these are current images of family members, there is also a copyprint of a 1923 portrait of d'Harnoncourt's mother and four cousins, all of whom graduated from Wellesley College between 1923 and 1926. Were it not for the hairstyle, it would be easy to mistake Sarah, pictured at far left, for her daughter.
