A Profile In Pennsylvania German Studies:
Jeff Dietrich By Karl Pass
igh school art teacher, potter, and folk art collector Jeff Dietrich of Berks County, Pa., titles his pottery business Loghouse Pottery. Dietrich makes redware and stoneware in a studio shop in the former summer kitchen behind his 18thcentury log and stone residence in the historic village of Trexler, outside Kempton, Pa. He holds open houses there, twice a year, which are buying opportunities for his growing network of collectors. One takes place the first weekend of June and coincides with the popular Hawk Mountain Arts Tour, and the other is typically held during the first weekend in December. Trexler is a rural area in northern Berks County near the Lehigh and also Schuylkill County border. The region has a rich
H
history of Pennsylvania German culture. The village was designated a National Historic District on Sept. 11, 2001, and the Albany Township Historical Society’s museum is along the railroad tracks across the road from Dietrich’s property. Unlike contemporary potters who merely duplicate old design motifs and forms, Dietrich is a skilled artisan with a keen eye for quality and design in both his work and his collection. “I don’t consider it reproduction. It is my interpretation of the motif,” said Dietrich. He uses a gas-fired kiln and often incorporates wood ash into his glazes. Dietrich uses a hand-built boxed wheel for trimming thrown work that was once owned and used by Jim Seagreaves. Dietrich was friends with the late
Breiningsville, Pa., folk potter, and his wife, Verna. Potter Seagreaves (1913-1997) was a revivalist potter whose style of work incorporated a Pennsylvania German twist with a modern 1950s style artistry. He did a lot of press molding and almost always used bright multi-colored glazes. Seagreaves was largely known for his figural bird sculptures, and the majority of his work is signed in script “JCS.” His wife, Verna (19132000), was also creative and painted, loosely in the style of “Grandma Moses.” Dietrich has one of the largest collections of Verna Seagreaves paintings, including a rare scene depicting Jim in his pottery shop using the boxed wheel. A great source for Dietrich used to be the late Mary Jeff Dietrich is seen here with a charger of his Snyder. “I got design that he made in his studio. They sell for (Continued on page 2)

A view from the backyard of the Dietrich residence. The log and stone building was built circa 1780. The kitchen addition was done circa 1830. The building served as a hotel during part of the 19th century and was also a post office. It was vacant the majority of the 20th century. Dietrich has lived there since 1999 and uses the former summer kitchen in the back as his shop/studio.

Rodney,” said Dietrich. An eccentric craftsman, Boyer was a cabinetmaker by trade who reproduced Wilhelm Schimmel style folk carvings. He also mixed his own pigments and seldom signed his work. Outside the Pennsylvania German region of southcentral Pennsylvania, but also in the style of Wilhelm Schimmel, Dietrich collects eagles by Robert Rogers of Springfield, Mass. Dietrich also collects John Long paintings. The late Long did reverse-glass painting and lived in Reinholds. In addition, Dietrich collects wagons and fabric collages by Luke Gottshall; carvings by Gottshall’s son, Walter Gottshall (currently 92 years old); and folk paintings by Luke Gottshall’s granddaughter,

Winterthur Museum, Garden & Library, 5105 Kennett Pike, Winterthur, Del., is closed to the public for the winter season and will reopen at 10:00 a.m., Saturday, March 1. Winterthur will use the time to make preparations for the upcoming major exhibition titled “Costumes of Downton Abbey,” which will be on view from March 1 to January 4, 2015. Featuring 40 designs from the award-winning PBS series, “Costumes of Downton Abbey” is an original exhibition that will compare and contrast the fictional British world of Downton Abbey with the real-life American counterpart Winterthur in the first half of the 20th century. Various renovations and repairs also will be initiated during the hiatus. Winterthur members will have access to the grounds and gardens during this period, weather permitting. The Winterthur Library will continue to

In her shop, she sold a high volume of Seagreaves and Foltz pottery, as well as carvings by Gottshall, Strawser, Snavely and Boyer, among other things. “I would have a show, and then go straight to Mary’s to buy the next day,” said Dietrich. Fellow Reinholds dealer Hattie Brunner (1890-1982) also sold quality contemporary folk art later in her career. In particular, in the 1970s, she sold work by her sister Fannie Klapp (18911976) and brother-in-law Luke Gottshall (1899-1993).

SHOPS & CENTERS COLLECTOR CHATS WITH PETER S. SEIBERT This Week: The Year Of The Harvey! You have got to see it! Then we will highlight in another gallery the work of two of the greatest Native American artists, Maria Martinez (San Ildefonso Pueblo), and Nampeyo (Hopi). Both had their careers impacted by working for the Harvey Company. Finally, and with kudos to my dear friend Jim Morrison at the National Christmas Center for giving me the idea, we will
explore the fantasy that every child in the 1940-1960s had…waking up Christmas morning to see a train running around the tree. And not just any train, but an ATSF toy train, maybe with a tin Marx Fort Apache or Fort Defiance set with it. Later still, it would be the Super Chief racing from Chicago to Los Angeles with automobile detours to see such exotic places such as Taos,
N.M. The toy train, particularly the ATSF trains, connected every household with the dream of the West. Truly, more than John Wayne or Gene Autry, the ATSF and the Fred Harvey Company gave us the image of the West. So in the next few columns, I will explore the impact of the Fred Harvey Company on the American Southwest. Stay tuned!

Here at the Millicent Rogers Museum, we are preparing for one of the biggest exhibits in the history of the organization, a celebration of the impact of Fred Harvey and the Fred Harvey Company on our understanding of the American West. While many of you may not be familiar with the name Fred Harvey (1835-1901), I am betting that in your life you have seen tons of examples of his works. Harvey was a brilliant restaurateur, marketer, promoter of the southwest, hotel owner, and businessman. He connected the tourists in the East with the majesty and beauty of the Southwest. Through his company’s partnership with the Atchison, Topeka, and the Santa Fe Railroad, they created the popular perceptions that most of us have of the West. You know…brilliant sunsets over the Grand Canyon, Native
Southwestern jewelry (you know…thunderbirds, arrows, and more on Indian jewelry!), read my friend Dennis June’s book “Fred Harvey Jewelry (1900-1955)” (published in 2013 by Schiffer). Both will give you a great background into this fascinating individual, his company, and their wideranging impact on the arts of the Southwest. For our museum, we are going to explore a number of aspects of the Fred Harvey story. Dennis June (author of the above) will be showing some of the items from the book in a special “vault” of Fred Harvey influenced silver.

Americans making silver jewelry, and the Super Chief heading west from Chicago. As someone who has been fascinated by Fred Harvey (and his company which was sold in 1968), this exhibit is going to be more fun than a double cheeseburger and gravy fries. For those of you who are not familiar with Fred Harvey and the making of the American West, I offer two wonderful books. Fellow native Harrisburger Steven Fried has written, “Appetite for America” (published in 2010 by Bantam) and it is a must-read on the company. To find out about the Harvey impact on

The exhibition will also feature Hall of Famers such as coach Knute Rockne, Red Grange and his teammate “the powerhouse” Bronko Nagurski, Jim Thorpe, and Sid Luckman; New York icons such as Frank Gifford, Tom Landry, Charlie Conerly, and Emlen Tunnell; and lesserknown players, coaches, and owners. Another highlight will be two cards depicting Kenny Washington. As a student at UCLA, Washington played alongside Jackie Robinson, who broke the color barrier in professional baseball in 1945. The following year, Washington himself became the first African American to sign a contract with a National Football League team after integrated teams were reinstated.

parents. It also houses a Civil War era album; a gold cross; various daguerreotypes and ambrotypes; school documents; a church program; a memo book; and the 128 letters that Emilio penned to his family during the war. Most are four pages; many are longer. These letters describe life in the military, battlefront updates, and news about colleagues. Much of this material was not published, even in his memoirs, as it was not considered appropriate for Victorian times. Emilio’s letters are truly
in U.S. history. It’s unbelievable that it originates from the perspective of someone who today would just qualify for a driver’s permit. I am so proud that James D. Julia
is able to help present this truly unique and historically rich content to a global audience.” For more information, visit www.jamesdjulia.com.

Fort Wagner. He retired from the Army in March 1865, not yet 21 years old. Emilio went on to a career in real estate and in 1891 authored “Brave Black Regiment,” a book documenting his experiences with the 54th Regiment. He passed away in 1918 after a long illness, and was buried in his hometown of Salem, Mass. Because of the scope and size of this archive, Emilio’s materials are presented in two lots. The first lot, estimated at $40,000 to $60,000, consists of his commissions, discharges, diaries, photographs, maps, insignia, and other communications and ephemera. Highlights of this grouping are a pair of brass officer’s spurs and a hat cord, medals, and a collection of straps, including an exceptional set of Carolina basket woven “theater made” shoulder straps. This lot includes Emilio’s diaries, dating from 1861 through 1866; the original “Consent to the Enlistment of a Minor” letter; and all of Emilio’s commissions in the 54th, which are signed by Massachusetts Governor John Andrew. Other important documents in this first lot include paperwork related to Emilio’s service both during wartime and after. These are his original pension; “mustering out” document; a large grouping of post-war correspondence, much of it referring to the exploits of the 54th Regiment; letters written by black enlisted men; wartime photographs; hand-drawn maps; hundreds of newspaper clippings mentioning the 54th Regiment; and letters addressed to Emilio, including 70 wartime and 375 postwar notes, most with their original envelopes. In addition, the collection includes Grand Army of the Republic items, a plaster cast of a Confederate Navy button, and a family memoir. The second lot, estimated at $80,000 to $120,000, includes a range of Emilio family materials, as well as the letters that Emilio mailed home during his military service. This collection is housed in a trunk. It was made in 1840 for Emilio’s mother in Spain. The trunk holds about 50 letters in Spanish, dating from the 1830s through the 1840s, mostly addressed to Luis’
a first hand, intimate view of a soldier’s life during the throes of the Civil War. For example, in a letter dated July 30th, 1863, he writes to his sister: “…it is real sad for me to receive letter to boys in the company that are dead and others missing and to have the painful duty to redirect them to their friends at home…” According to John Saxon, the Civil War authority who cataloged the Emilio archive, “This is amongst the greatest letter groupings of a Civil War soldier ever to come to market. The letters are in overall fine condition and Luis had a beautiful script that is easily read. He writes vivid, detailed accounts of every aspect of soldier life. When you start reading these letters from day one, they read like a book and it is hard to stop.” Bill Gage, James D. Julia’s head of antiques, asian, and fine arts, adds “This time capsule is perhaps the finest example of a firsthand account of one of the most important periods

James D. Julia, Inc., is excited to present a historically important collection of Civil War materials in association with the company’s upcoming Antiques, Asian, and Fine Arts Auction to be held Tuesday through Friday, Feb. 4 to 7. These materials represent one of the most significant and important Civil War archives relating to the role and importance of black soldiers in the military ever to come to auction. The founding of the 54th Regiment Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry, and their subsequent activities, occurred at an important turning point in U.S. history. Early in the Civil War, the majority of fighting commanders from both the North and the South disregarded the potential of African Americans as combat soldiers. These beliefs would be put to the test just a month after President Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation, when Massachusetts Governor John Andrew issued the Civil War’s first official call for black soldiers in February 1863. Over 1,000 men of color volunteered for service, including Luis Emilio, who had fought previously as a member of the 23rd Regiment. Governor Andrew appointed Robert Shaw, son of white and affluent abolitionist parents, to lead the division. Despite their new and official status as members of the military, there were still people who only reluctantly accepted African Americans into the armed forces. It was this unit of valiant and heroic soldiers from Massachusetts that helped to turn the tide on the erroneous assumptions of the black man’s fighting ability under fire. Their assault on Fort Wagner on July 18th, 1863, was a dramatic representation of their combat abilities. The regiment was portrayed in the 1989 Academy Award-winning film titled “Glory.” The story of Luis Emilio is as interesting as the history behind these artifacts and adds essential context to the collection. Born in 1844 near Boston to immigrant parents, Emilio demonstrated lifelong leadership and commitment to his country and fellow man. Emilio was 16 when the Civil War began in April 1861. He had such patriotic fever that he convinced his father to sign a letter stating that his son was 18, the official enlistment age, in order to join the military. Once in the service, Emilio was promoted to Sergeant in less than a year. By 1863, he was a Captain of the 54th Regiment and then became its acting Commander on July 18, 1863, when all of his ranking officers, including Shaw, were killed or wounded during the assault on

Only about 40 people attended the auction in person, but virtually every one was an active buyer. Online bidding was extremely busy, with more than 700 bidders registered through LiveAuctioneers.com and the Mohawk Arms website (MilitaryRelics.com). In addition, more than 200 absentee bidders and over 50 phone bidders participated, in an auction that grossed in excess of $200,000. “We attracted a fair number of new bidders, both U.S. and foreign, and bids poured in from Europe, Asia and elsewhere,” said Raymond Zyla, the owner of Mohawk Arms. “It was a great sale, and a true testament to the health of the market.” Zyla said categories that did particularly well included daggers, bayonets, embroidered insignias (American and German), medals, badges, swords, uniforms and exotica. “Plus, there were the usual surprises,” he added, “like the set of German shoulder boards that we estimated at $75 and ended up selling to a collector from Japan for $2,115. We didn’t see that one coming.” The Russian helmet was a hit with bidders for many reasons: the plum patina on the silvered eightpointed starburst that held an enameled double-headed eagle with the Cross of St.

Fooled By Fakes
By Anita Stratos
Sparkling Deception: Fake Swarovski external packaging, which Swarovski puts there specifically to help buyers avoid imitations: a package seal, their registered “Trustseal” hologram that, when viewed at angles, reveals a series of multicolor diamond shapes, and a bar code that makes the packages traceable. All Swarovski crystals are made in Austria, so any package of crystals marked with a different country of origin simply isn’t real Swarovski. Imperfections are a dead giveaway that a piece is not Swarovski. Since Swarovski tests every single gemstone for quality, one of the first giveaways of a fake is a piece that lacks the sparkle, brilliance, and/or precise cuts of a true Swarovski item. If you’ve ever looked carefully at the surface of some glass, you’ll probably have noticed swirly or wavy marks from the manufacturing process. If you see that on a piece claiming to be Swarovski, you’re definitely looking at a fake. Another clue would be a bubble in the crystal, which would never appear in an authentic Swarovski bead or crystal. The surface of a Swarovski crystal, whether a bead, jewelry piece, or figurine, will be smooth, perfectly cut, and highly polished. The angled cuts are precisely measured and duplicated exactly, so no matter how many facets are on a figurine or gemstone,
every different facet will be perfectly matched to other facets of the same kind. Also, because they’re machine-cut, every bead, crystal, and figurine of the same type will be identical to all others of its kind. A fake, however, won’t have that level of perfection. Fakes may have a pitted surface, scratches, dullness, or may just lack the high level of brilliance, richness of color, or bright sparkle that you’ll always find in a real Swarovski piece. Like most manufacturers, Swarovski’s mark has changed over the years, but the more recent marks include the edelweiss flower (around 1975), the square SC
block-style logo (19761988), “sCs” or “SCS”, which stands for “Swarovski Crystal Society” (1987-present), and the well-known swan image (1989-present). Logos prior to 1976 can vary and be difficult to read. If you’re considering buying Swarovski online, don’t be fooled by a domain name that contains the word “Swarovski.” Plenty of fakes are pedaled on Internet sites using the names of high-end
companies, from Tiffany to Gucci to Swarovski. You can’t always judge authenticity by photos. Some of the sites that sell fakes use pictures of authentic pieces and some even plagiarize the pictures from one of Swarovski’s websites or a jewelry piece that contains Swarovski elements, but that’s not what you get when you buy them. Make sure you’re on the actual company’s website before making your purchase. All photos are property of the author. At A Glance Signs of a Fake: 1. Incorrect logo. 2. Imperfections of any kind.
3. Color zoning. 4. Zirconia without “Swarovski Zirconia” laser engraving. Reference books, websites, and collecting groups are the best ways to keep from being fooled by fakes. Here are a few: “Collecting Swarovski” by Dean A. Genth; Crystal Fanatics Club (www.crystalfanaticsclub. com/) and (http://crystal fanatics.wordpress.com); Swarovski Crystal Society (www.swarovski.com).

Swarovski’s gorgeous crystal pieces are well known the world over, but many people don’t know that Daniel Swarovski actually invented the revolutionary machine that creates these masterpieces of precision and brilliance all the way back in 1895. “Innovation” is still the catchword at Swarovski: the company moved into fine jewelry (natural and created stones) in 1965, and more recently they began producing lighting as well as interior and architectural pieces. Constantly evolving new technologies keep Swarovski at the forefront of new creations. And speaking of Swarovski’s newest creations, they’ve recently added zirconia to their list of glittering treasures, which includes both genuine and created gemstones as well as marcasite. Their zirconia pieces boast a “pure brilliance” cut, which is above accepted standards for zirconia and rate at the level of some diamonds; therefore, any piece claiming to be Swarovski zirconia that doesn’t have a crisp, sparkling look to it is probably an imitation. Each stone is laser engraved with the words “Swarovski Zirconia,” so if you don’t see that on the bottom of the stone, it’s not real Swarovski. No Swarovski stone has “color zoning,” meaning uneven distribution of coloring on the stone. If you buy Swarovski stones in bulk for beading or jewelry making, there are several things to look for in the

This winter and spring the Frick will present “Renaissance and Baroque Bronzes from the Hill Collection,” a distinguished private collection of 33 statuettes, sculptures, and a relief. These works represent more than 20 years of avid engagement on the part of Janine and J. Tomilson Hill, collectors who are better known for their interest in post-war painting. The bronzes, which have never before been shown to the public as a group, span the early 16th to the 18th centuries, from the inception of the genre in Renaissance Italy to its conclusion as a European-wide phenomenon during the late Baroque period. Many of the statuettes were created by renowned sculptors such as Andrea Riccio, Giambologna, and Adriaen de Vries, while others were made by lesserknown Northern artists such as Caspar Gras and Hans Reichle, whose talents have only recently begun to be appreciated. At the Frick, the Hills’ statuettes will be shown in an installation that differs from earlier bronze exhibitions, such as the acclaimed monographic presentations on Antico (2012), Riccio (2008), and Willem van Tetrode (2003), as well as the Fitzwilliam (2005) and
Quentin Collections (20045). In keeping with the residential character of the museum founded by Henry Clay Frick, where bronzes inhabit galleries along with paintings of different schools and eras, the Hills’ sculptures will be shown with selected Old Master and modern paintings, as well as a contemporary sculpture, in displays that reflect the couple’s diverse holdings and collecting sensibilities. Central to the exhibition, however, is the remarkable group of bronzes assembled thoughtfully over time by Janine and Tom Hill. Frick curator Denise Allen characterizes these works as follows, “Strength, quality, and diversity mark these holdings. Masters of the Italian, French, German, and Dutch schools are represented here. The subject matter varies as well, with depictions of pagan gods interspersed with those of Christ and images of secular rulers. A feeling of energy dominates the Hill collection. The emotional intensity of the bronze figures unites them, creating a vibrant whole that transcends the sum of its diverse parts.” said Allen. She adds, “It has been nearly 100 years since Henry Clay Frick acquired his collection of Italian Renaissance bronzes. We are thrilled to show both very

different collections under one roof, each to be considered with respect to the individual tastes of the collectors who acquired them.” The exhibition “Renaissance and Baroque Bronzes from the Hill Collection” is organized for the Frick by Allen, who was responsible for the Frick’s participation in all of the bronze exhibitions mentioned above. The Frick Collection is located at 1 East 70th St. in New York City. The exhibit will open on Tuesday, Jan. 28, and run until Sunday, June 15. For additional information, visit www.frick.org.

joined by Paul Klee, Emil Nolde, Max Pechstein, and other like-minded spirits who believed that art could herald a renewal of society. The exhibition explores two major themes embraced by this new generation of artists. Some showed a fascination with modern cities and mass entertainment, creating works such as Otto Dix’s print “Woman with Heron Feather” (1923) and Pechstein’s painting “The Circus” (1920), while others demonstrated a concern with nature and folk traditions or were inspired by the kind of authenticity they found in nonEuropean “primitive” art. Many of these artists experimented with woodcut printing techniques that had flourished in the 16th century, creating intensely colored prints like Kandinsky’s “The Archer”
(1908-1909) and Kirchner’s “Fir Trees” (1919). Other highlights include Alexei Jawlensky’s “Head of a Woman” (circa 1911) and important precursors to Expressionism such as Gustav Klimt’s painting “Pine Forest II” (1901). The last section of the exhibition includes intense psychological portraits by Dix, Max Beckmann, and others whose artwork reflects the change in mood caused by the devastation of World War I and Germany’s economic and political collapse. By 1933, the era of Expressionism was largely over. The Baltimore Museum of Art is located at 10 Art Museum Drive in Baltimore, Md. For more information, visit www.artbma.org.

The Baltimore Museum of Art (BMA) announces a compelling overview of one of the most visually arresting art movements of the 20th century. “German Expressionism: A Revolutionary Spirit” will be on view from Wednesday, Jan. 29, to Sunday, Sept. 14, featuring more than 35 vivid paintings, prints, watercolors, drawings, and sculpture by Wassily Kandinsky, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Franz Marc, and others who contributed to this creative zeitgeist (spirit of the time). The exhibition includes rarely seen works from the BMA and select loans from private collections. It is curated by BMA associate curator of European painting and sculpture Oliver Shell. German Expressionism emerged as a result of the country’s extraordinary industrial growth and modernization in the late 19th century. Two groups with similar ambitions formed to liberate themselves from the older generation, revolutionize art, and bring about a universal spiritual rebirth. Die Brücke (The Bridge) began in 1905 by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner and several architecture students in Dresden. Der Blaue Reiter (The Blue Rider) was organized in 1911 by Wassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc in Munich. Inspired by exhibitions of works by Vincent Van Gogh, Henri Matisse, and others, both groups explored increasingly subjective forms of representation. They also shared a vital sense of celebration and an eagerness for invention, especially in the graphic arts. They were soon

Harry Bertoia’s Maquette Highlights Upcoming Skinner’s American And European Works Of Art Sale Over half a century after its creation, the model for one of Harry Bertoia’s earliest commissioned site-specific architectural sculptures will be up for auction at Skinner, Inc. The sale will take place Friday, Feb. 7th, at their Boston facility located at 63 Park Plaza in Boston, Mass. The estimate is $70,000-$90,000. The maquette is for Bertoia’s legendary suspended altarpiece screen in M.I.T.’s Kresge Chapel, commissioned by Cranbook colleague Eero Saarinen. Designed to scatter light from the chapel’s single oculus window, the piece is widely considered to be one of Bertoia’s most striking works and is often credited with ushering in the contemporary era of spatial sculpture. The Bertoia maquette will be one of the major highlights of the American and European Works of Art auction. The sale will cover a broad range of styles and regions, from Old Master works including a Flemish school diptych and early 20th-century American landscape paintings by

The Little Prince (Continued from page 16)
the paper Saint-Exupéry used to draft his text reveals that “The Little Prince” was literally made in America; the watermark, which is visible when the sheets are held up to the light, reads “Fidelity Onion Skin. Made in U.S.A.” Saint-Exupéry’s time in America was fraught with personal anxiety, physical ailments, and, above all, the weight of war. After the Allied invasion of North Africa, he was able to rejoin his squadron, leaving New York just as “The Little Prince” was rolling off the presses in April 1943. As he prepared to leave the city, Saint-Exupéry appeared at Silvia Hamilton’s door wearing an ill-fitting military uniform. “I’d like to give you something splendid,” he said, “but this is all I have.” He tossed a rumpled paper bag on her entryway table. Inside were the manuscript and drawings for “The Little Prince.” The Morgan Library & Museum acquired them from her in 1968. Because Saint-Exupéry left the city hastily to return to war, the author inscribed only a handful of copies of “The Little Prince” to friends. Exhibited for the first time will be the book he gave to Hamilton’s 12-year-old son, one of the first young people to hear the story, open to the charming inscription: “For Stephen, to whom I have already spoken about the ‘The Little Prince,’ and who perhaps will be his friend.” It is the only copy that SaintExupéry is known to have presented to a child. Saint-Exupéry did not live to see his work appear in his native France, where it was published only after the war; he died while piloting a lone reconnaissance flight in 1944, just weeks before the liberation of Paris. The exhibition includes an extraordinarily moving artifact, the silver identity bracelet that Saint-Exupéry was wearing when his plane went down in 1944. Recovered near Marseille in 1998 after it was snagged in a fisherman’s net, it is inscribed with SaintExupéry’s name and the address of the American publisher of “The Little Prince,” Reynal & Hitchcock, 386 Fourth (i.e., Park) Avenue, N.Y.C., U.S.A. The bracelet is on loan from the estate of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. It has never before been exhibited in the United States. Along with drawings and letters sent to New York friends, the exhibition includes works that illustrate the profound impact “The Little Prince” had on American readers. On view will be the manuscript diary of fellow author-aviator Anne Morrow Lindbergh, who felt the work conveyed a sense of “personal sadness - eternal sadness - eternal hunger eternal searching,” as well as a letter from an Illinois schoolteacher who thanked

early drawings will be images from the first edition, allowing comparisons between the two versions. In addition, a newly discovered drawing, never before published or publicly exhibited, will be shown. The drawing is from the collection of Mark Reinhardt, the grandson of Silvia Hamilton, to whom Saint-Exupery entrusted his manuscript and drawings before leaving New York. It depicts one of the most evocative scenes from the book: the little prince watching sunsets on his tiny planet. The Morgan holds two drawings of the same scene, and viewers will be able to see and compare the three versions. Some of the drawings depict familiar images from the book: the little prince in the desert, the king alone on his planet, the little prince lying beside a garden after discovering that his rose is not unique in the universe. Others were excluded from the published book, such as a view of the pilot asleep on the sand after his plane has crashed a thousand miles from any living soul. One of the most haunting images, an unpublished drawing of the little prince wearing his yellow scarf and floating above Earth, was clearly wadded up into a ball only to be rescued from the garbage can, flattened and retained. Also on display will be a deleted passage that underscores the centrality of the drawings to “The Little Prince.” The narrator, discouraged from an artistic career by grown-ups who thought he should focus instead on math and geography, explains: “I’ve never told the grown-ups that I’m not from their world. I’ve hidden the fact that I’ve always been five or six years old at heart. And therefore I have hidden my drawings from them. But I love to show them to my friends. These drawings are my memories.” Antoine de Saint-Exupéry Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

(1900-1944) was a French aviator who came of age in the early, heady days of commercial flight. He piloted the mails in North Africa and South America and later served as a reconnaissance pilot with the French Air Force during the Second World War. He wrote of his experiences in a series of novels and essays that turned him into a best-selling author and celebrity both at home and abroad. Saint-Exupéry enjoyed making sketches from the time he was a boy and spent a few unproductive months in architecture school when he was 20, but had no formal training as an artist and had never illustrated a book before embarking on “The Little Prince.” Photojournalist John Phillips (1914-1996), known for his contributions to Life, captured Major SaintExupéry with his comrades on the island of Sardinia just weeks before his final mission in 1944. A selection of Phillips’ striking photographs will be shown. Several important precursors to “The Little Prince” are on view immediately outside the exhibition gallery. They include a luxe 1909 French illustrated book that features Hans Christian Andersen’s tale “The Little Mermaid,” which inspired Saint-Exupéry, and an early edition of “Mary Poppins,” whose author, P. L. Travers, was one of the first (and most astute) reviewers of “The Little Prince.” She addressed the persistent question of whether the book is for children or adults, predicting that the multi-layered story would “shine upon children with a sidewise gleam. It will strike them in some place that is not the mind and glow there until the time comes for them to comprehend it.” The Morgan Library & Museum is located at 225 Madison Ave., at 36th St. in New York City.
