Scope and Contents

From the Sub-Series:

Most of the documentation in this subseries pertains to d'Harnoncourt's father, René, and consists primarily of third party correspondence. There are some original writings of his, including captioned drawings, a notebook, and photocopies of published articles. He is also the subject of most of the photographs that comprise the "Photographs" sub-subseries. Other correspondents include d'Harnoncourt's mother, some of her Austrian relatives, and a few members of the Rishel family.

D'Harnoncourt's correspondence with her husband, Joseph Rishel, is included in the "Names and Subjects" subseries of Series I. It is a small amount primarily of faxes d'Harnoncourt sent while her husband was traveling on Museum business. Photographs of Rishel are included with those of d'Harnoncourt in Series III, "Photographs and publicity."
