Claudet, A. (Antoine), 1797-1867. Letters to D. Hastings, 1844-1854.

Title: Letters to D. Hastings, 1844-1854.

These 16 unpublished letters were written to D. Hastings during the most creative decade of Claudet's career. Hastings was a writer for the Morning Herald, whom Claudet kept informed about his improvements upon daguerreotypy, talbotype (calotype), and stereoscopy processes, asking him to publicize them in the paper. In February 1849 he sent a "prospectus" announcing his project of a gallery of portraits of eminent men, which will be lithographed and sold to the public. The ensuing letters describe portraits of his distinguished sitters: Lord G. Bentinck, the Marquis of Northampton, Lord Brougham, François Guizot, the singer Anna Thillon, Queen Victoria and the royal family. In 1849 Claudet complains that "there is much prejudice against the new art," but he is sure that "it will be soon proved that photography is the best means of securing good likeness." A few letters from 1844 to 1849 are invitations to dinner, to a musical evening, and a presentation letter for an apparatus he had ordered for Hastings from Paris, as a "token of friendship."
