Start Over Collection John Barrington Bayley negatives and photographs

Abstract Or Scope: Series II is made up of a series of photo albums. Most photographs appear to be prints or cut-and-pasted contact sheets of the negatives from Series I. This series is also arranged geographically by country, with the exception of Subseries 4: Rome, which comprises the largest assortment of photographs. Also included is a subseries for unidentified photographs; these were loose album sheets, most likely from Vienna, though there appears to be some from Italy as well. Bayley labeled most of the album pages, and some of the Roman ones have more extensive commentary in both English and Italian.

Abstract Or Scope: Series III is composed of larger scale prints, averaging around 8 inches x 10 inches. They are primarily images of Roman palazzi and two churches. Each print is labeled with the building, architect(s), and estimated date of construction.

Abstract Or Scope: Series I is composed of negatives, slides, and some small prints (many of which are contact prints of the negatives). The series is organized alphabetically by geographical location, with the exception of Subseries 6: Rome. Bayley spent much time in Rome and these images comprise the bulk of his oeuvre. The negatives and slides were originally housed in albums; some of these arrived rehoused in negative sleeves. The original organization and labeling has been maintained except where sites were unknown. Within Subseries 3: Italy, the files are arranged alphabetically by region or city. The majority of the Austrian images are of Vienna, whereas the French images constitute a larger regional sample.
