[Vwoolf] Guidance about Woolf-Related Photograph Permissions

[Neverow, Vara S.]

Hi Danell,

Congrats! That's excellent news—and it's very exciting indeed to know that soon we will know much more about the Dreadnought hoax thanks to your stellar work.

The Smith College Library has the Leslie Stephen photograph album (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.smith.edu/libraries/libs/rarebook/exhibitions/stephen/__;!!KGKeukY!x04PFLt2ASxN4ZAdCwC_ILWZ50IgTHiJXoWi5PQHBUItq4a4_WztvY1r4Wq6XP4CMZX6NKGydJhEMQOOOMVcmbDSbf8v5pl68yW5fC2S$ ). Their guidance appears on this webpage: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://libraries.smith.edu/special-collections/services/rights-reproductions/attribution__;!!KGKeukY!x04PFLt2ASxN4ZAdCwC_ILWZ50IgTHiJXoWi5PQHBUItq4a4_WztvY1r4Wq6XP4CMZX6NKGydJhEMQOOOMVcmbDSbf8v5pl687ewTjgT$ .

The Monks House photographs are at the Hollis Library at Harvard. Their guidelines are available on this website: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://hollisarchives.lib.harvard.edu/repositories/24/resources/3691__;!!KGKeukY!x04PFLt2ASxN4ZAdCwC_ILWZ50IgTHiJXoWi5PQHBUItq4a4_WztvY1r4Wq6XP4CMZX6NKGydJhEMQOOOMVcmbDSbf8v5pl68wgKkGbm$ . Maggie Humm, who compiled the beautiful Snapshots of Bloomsbury: The Private Lives of Virginia Woolf and Vanessa Bell, could probably offer more insights. I recall that Maggie mentioned there were costs involved in publishing the volume.

I'm not sure about any of the details, but these are starting points (and you may already have begun to delve into these sources). I am sure that additional guidance will come from others very soon.

Best,

Vara

Dear Woolfians:



I am very happy to report that Hurst, UK, will be publishing my manuscript on Woolf and the Dreadnought hoax—wooo hooo! I am thrilled and thankful to everyone who helped me with this book. And it just may be out in June 2023. Fingers crossed.



I would like to include some images of Woolf and her family and, especially, one or both of the hoaxers Lafayatte studio portraits. While I can get digitized images of both, none of the organizations selling them claims copyright and tells me that I need to find the copyright holder. Has anyone gone through this process with the hoax images? Can you advise me?



As for other Stephen family photos, does anyone have any recommendations of the best places to find our copyright holders and get permissions? There are so many copyright laws in play right now that it all seems a bit of mire.



If possible, I would like to include photographs of Virginia and Leonard as well as Leslie, Julia, Thoby, Vanessa, and Adrian—possibly Laura and the Duckworths…



Thank you all so much for any help you can offer,



Danell
