Pleite von Carleton Watkins im Jahr 1876 oder 1881?
[Quelltext bearbeiten]Pleite von Carleton Watkins im Jahr 1876 oder 1881? Jedenfalls hat Isaiah West Taber etliche von Watkins' Negativen erworben und unter eigenem Namen vermarktet. Diese Info könnte man in diesen Wikipedia-Eintrag über Carleton Watkins nachtragen. Ich beziehe mich auf:
[Isaiah West] »Taber employed numerous staff photographers whose work he published under his own name. He also published under the Taber imprint, images by Carleton Watkins after acquiring negatives from the bankrupt photographer in 1876.«

»In addition to his own photographs, [Isaiah West] Taber printed, published, and distributed the work of other photographers, including Carleton Watkins. Taber acquired Watkins's negatives in 1881 as a result of Watkins's bankruptcy.«

»While Watkins won acclaim for his artistic efforts, he was not considered a good businessman and, during the financial crisis of 1875, lost his studio and negatives to creditor J. J. Cook. Cook, along with photographer I. W. Taber, took over the Yosemite Art Gallery. Taber began marketing Watkins stereoviews under the I. W. Taber label, although retaining Watkins original view numbers and titles.«

»After the American photographer Carleton E. Watkins (1829-1916) went bankrupt in 1873-1874, Taber acquired and printed Watkins old negatives taken between 1861 and 1873, mostly views of Yosemite National Park, California.«
