Description
BOUGHTON, Alice. Charles Rann Kennedy, The Terrible Meek, New York and London: Harper Brothers, 1912. Hardcover (gold and blind-stamped purple cloth), 8 ¼ x 5 ½ inches, 46 pages, frontispiece halftone illustration.
This is one of five plays by Kennedy for which Boughton provided illustrations, between 1908 and 1917. The Terrible Meek is the shortest of them, being a one-act play for three voices, performed in darkness. Edith Wynne Matthison, Kennedy's wife, played a peasant woman and is the subject of Boughton's portrait. Alice Boughton (1866 -1943) was a professional and pictorial photographer, working in New York, after apprenticing with Gertrude Käsebier. Alfred Stieglitz included six photogravures by her in the April 1906 issue of Camera Work, most of them picturing nude women and children. The book's elaborate embossed cover was created by the Decorative Designers. Very good condition.
