Description
For an overview of the collection and a bibliography / Pour une description de la collection et une bibliographie: The Collection of Clémence d’Ennery / La Collection de Clémence d’Ennery (Le Musée d’Ennery). Filez vers le bas pour la version française.
Part I provides an illustrated overview of Clémence d’Ennery's ledgers and their context to assist users in understanding some of the challenges inherent in transcribing them. An introductory text is followed a transcription of the ledgers themselves. Because of the often phonetic spelling of names, a column at right standardizes the spelling of names (when recognized).
Part II (in progress and to be released in March 2023), allows more sophisticated consultation of the data by breaking the transcription into structured data fields. This will allow both cross-referencing of the names and addresses here with purchase dates and shop address over time. It also allows one to sort by type of object, estimated dates, and prices. Part II will also link to the INHA database of collectors and art dealers that will launch on Oct. 12, 2022.
