[Joslin Hall Books & Ephemera]

Edward Eldon Deane- Signed 1876 Pencil Sketch of Medieval  
Architectural Details in Beverly Minster church, Yorkshire

A nice pencil sketch dated 6/9/76 showing carving details of medieval  
choir stall figures in the Beverly Minster church, Beverly, Yorkshire,  
including a detail from the famous Percy Shrine. From a small  
collection of architectural pencil sketches by Deane.

E[dward] Eldon Deane [1851-1919] was an English-born architectural  
illustrator who began his career in London and worked there for four  
years before moving to America in 1883. Mary N. Woods, in her book  
"From Craft to Profession: The Practice of Architecture in  
Nineteenth-century", explains- "During the late 19th century, men who  
specialized in perspectives and moved from office to office were known  
as journeymen draftsmen or itinerant renderers. Among the more  
celebrated were E. Eldon Deane and Theodore Langerfeldt, who worked as  
perspectivists for prominent Boston architects…Unlike photographers,  
who rarely received a credit line in the architectural press,  
renderers like Deane [and] Langerfeldt signed their works and received  
recognition". The Smithsonian holds 32 sketchbooks by Deane, executed  
between 1868 and 1896, and notes- "most of the sketches are of  
medieval architecture and ornamental details in England, but also  
included are portraits, landscape, and genre in various places".

Single sheet, drawing on both sides. 9.5"x13.5". Some soil, small  
stains, edge chips. [40961]  $75
