Personal Images, 1900-2007 and undated
- Extent:
- 13 boxes
- Scope and content:
-
Contains approximately 830 black-and-white photographs, 1730 color photographs, one hundred twenty-two 35mm slides, and many negatives. Consists mainly of personal snapshots taken by Painter and her family and friends. There are several early photographs of family members, including a 1914 print of her mother's family in Texas. After the late 1970s there are also a number of formal portraits and publicity photographs of Painter (noted as "NIP"). Arranged in two chronological sequences: additions to this subseries received in accession 2008-0016 were so extensive as to render impractical the virtual interfiling technique used throughout the rest of this finding aid. Therefore boxes 229-231 contain the personal photographs received in 2006 and earlier, and boxes 275-278 contain those received in 2008. Note that the more recently received group is not only larger but also covers a longer span of years, beginning earlier and ending later.
