Art and Architecture

While Art and Architecture is not one of the primary Special Collecting areas for the Stanford University Libraries, the Manuscript Division nevertheless has some interesting collections of interests to scholars in this field.

Some notable collections include the Artists collection, Beau Geste Press Ephemera, Edwin H. Carpenter's North American Indian art collection, the Barbara Carrasco, the Raymond Duncan Papers, the Conrad Kiesel Correspondence, the Frank Cheyne Papé Letters and drawings, and the Maud Williams Correspondence.

Alex Ross, Head of the Art Libary, is the primary individual responsible for selecting manuscript collections that fall into this collecting area. For a fuller description of recent collecting activities in this field, please refer to the Art and Architecture home page.
