Zone du contenu et de la structure
Portée et contenu
101 letters sent to Henry Montagu Butler as Master in response to his requests for portraits of judges to decorate the Judges' Chambers. The letters are from the subjects themselves or from their descendants, and the portraits referred to tend to be photographs and engravings. A seven page description of the project by Butler dated 15 July 1898 appears at the front with a list of subjects and donors up to that time, and naming George Denman as being of particular assistance in sourcing the portraits. A number of the letters are between Denman and Butler, and four of the letters are from the artist George Richmond.
