The contents of the following table derives from A catalogue of paintings in the Folger Shakespeare Library : "as imagination bodies forth" by William L. Pressly.[1] Pressly created his catalog to enumerate and illuminate the rich collection of paintings in the art collection at the Folger Shakespeare Library. These paintings in particular were the focus of "Appendix III: Deaccessioned Paintings" in Pressly's catalogue.
For the full list of paintings at the Folger, visit the article List of paintings at the Folger in the Pressly Catalogue.
History
The following paragraphs are reproduced from Pressly's catalogue to give sufficient background of the history of the paintings that were deaccessioned from the Folger.
- In the early 1960s, Louis B. Wright, the director of the Folger Shakespeare Library, undertook to deaccession paintings in order to make room for more storage space. Three pictures were sold to Amherst College in 1961 and in the following year thirty-eight to Lincoln Kirstein, who was negotiating for the American Shakespeare Festival Theatre and Academy in Stratford, Connecticut (abbreviated in the entries as ASFTA). In these transactions the Library lost a number of fine paintings and sculptures, but the works were sold to institutions that were better able to make them accessible to the public, the Library having limited space for exhibition. The later financial collapse of the American Shakespeare Festival Theatre and the subsequent dispersal of its collection could not then have been foreseen.
- In March, 1964, at least nineteen mroe paintings along with numerous other objects were shipped to Parke Bernet Galleries in New York for auction. Thse works were inferior to the earlier deaccessioned paintings. In fact, only the Buchels were sold by Parke Bernet, the remainder going to Coleman Galleries. The works that were not disposed of there were then passed on again to an antique shop on Third Avenue. The two paintings (D28 and D67) purchased by Professor Louis Marder of Kent STate University in February 1964 were ones that had already been set aside for the Parke Bernet shipment.
- A few paintings have unaccountably disappeared from the colleciton. The majority of these were presumably disposed of soon after the Library's founding, when no records of such transactions were being kept.[2]
Two paintings subsequently have returned to the Folger, D25 and D29, detailed in The Collation article Return of the prodigal paintings. When known, the table indicates where a given deaccessioned painting now resides and links to its collection page.
