Carmichael Family Archive Curated by Marie Stopes & her Suffragist Mother Charlotte Carmichael

by M C Stopes, Marie Stopes

  • Used
Edinburgh: Unpublished, 1850. Family archive of the birth control pioneer and sexologist Marie Stopes which relates to her Scottish Carmichael forebears including a portrait in oils of her mother the women's rights campaigner Charlotte Carmichael painted by her grandfather the Scots landscape artist James Ferrier Carmichael. The collection is housed in a large portfolio on which Marie Stopes has written 'M C Stopes - art' as well as adding explanatory annotations to many of the works. Thus a portrait of Charlotte Carmichael has Stopes's note: 'By [James Ferrier] Carmichael - of mother etc - done in 1850? The stool is the one I still have'. Clearly Stopes took on the role of family archivist, preserving images of her distinguished Carmichael forebears and including in the portfolio just a single drawing of her own. Provenance: from the estate of Marie Stopes's son the philosopher Henry Stopes-Roe. Of the 30 or so items included, the most significant, in reverse chronological order are: ANN DURWARD Marie Stopes's great-grandmother '1st Drawings & Paintings from Nature 1786': single sheet with coloured nature studies on both sides JAMES FERRIER CARMICHAEL(1810-1854) Scottish Landscape Artist: Grandfather of Marie Stopes 1 'Oil picture by grandfather of mother, later Mrs Charlotte Carmichael Stopes' (note by Marie Stopes to verso) Small oil on canvas, unframed, showing the infant Charlotte Carmichael sitting in a miniature armchair. Contained within a large envelope addressed to Marie Stopes at Norbury Park. (29x39cm) 2. 'Drawing of Charlotte Carmichael by her father the artist James Ferrier Carmichael she later became the wife of Henry Stopes and mother of Dr Marie Stopes' (MS label by Marie Stopes to verso) A large pencil portrait on board of Charlotte Carmichael standing and gesturing forward as a child, perhaps two years old. The image is rubbed with some loss to image (48x33cm). 3. 'By Carmichael - of mother etc - done in 1850? The stool is the one I still have' (Marie Stopes note to verso) A single sheet bearing three pencil drawings (27x22cm) depicting Charlotte Carmichael as an infant and a man tilling crops. 4. 'Charlotte Carmichael aged 7 By her father' (MS note) charcoal and colour on paper, mounted. (25x32cm) 5. Two further bucolic watercolours and a large pencil drawing of a young horseman talking to a little girl also appear to be the work of James Ferrier Carmichael.

(A sequence of 5 pencil designs for architectural details each with tissue guard, signed Charlotte Carmichael.) 1. Study for design of fountain, pencil on paper with tissue guard.

Description:
First edition in Russian of To have and have not (1937), with an introduction by the Soviet critic Ivan Anisimov. Hemingway's first appearance in Russian was Death in the Afternoon in 1934, when he was praised in the Soviet Union as an active anti-Fascist, and he soon became a favourite foreign author of both the intellectuals and the masses.
The translator Evgenia Kalashnikova had translated Hemingway's Farewell to Arms in 1936. She went on to translate Thackeray, Bernard Shaw, Dickens, Scott Fitzgerald, C. S. Lewis, Theodore Dreiser, John Steinbeck and many others into Russian.
OCLC records copies at Princeton, South Carolina, and Virginia.
12mo, pp. 237, [3]; light browning, creases to a few pages, but generally a very good copy in the publisher's binding of half cloth, printed paper label to front cover, illustrated endleaves.
