InventoryCollection Number: 17488Building: Central LibraryCurrent Location: One North Floor: 1st Object DescriptionArtist: Keith F. DavisArtist Dates: 1952-CurrentArtist Nationality: AmericanObject Type: PrintDetails: This is an Edition 1 of 4 ink-jet print of a photograph taken by Davis of Talbot's Library in Lacock Abbey. Framed: Yes - PlexiLength: 51 inchesWidth: 2 inchesHeight: 63 1/2 inchesDescription: This photograph appears to pronounce the institutions of knowledge, art, and architecture in featuring an antique bookcase, marble bust, and doric column as its subjects. Filled with rich brown, leather-bound books and comprising nearly half of the photograph, the bookcase suggests knowledge as the prominent value of this corner. However, although the softness of white marble against the white wall would predict a non-striking effect, the subtleties in the shadows of the nearby bust allow it to compete with the bookcase in terms of visual significance, consequently inciting a balance between weights, colors, and academies here.
