"Recollections of Conversations with Mr John Pye, London 1864-4, with Other Matters Relating to Men of His Time", 1863 May

Quarto manuscript notebook. 80 pages. Neatly written. Dark red morocco binding. Signed"Thomas H. Cromek, May 1863." The journal consists largely of the transcription by Cromek of the conversations he had on the occasion of numerous visits to John Pye. Added to this are accounts of other visits he made, sometimes with Pye, sometimes on his own, to various galleries and the homes of other artists the whole comprising a diary of Cromek's tour of the London art world with much added memoranda. As seen above T. H. Cromek engaged in a long correspondence with the engraver John Pye as part of his attempt to research a life of his father Robert Cromek. Pye had replied supportively only regretting that he and Cromek could not sit side by side in conversation. Cromek's arrival in London on 6 May1863 provided the opportunity for a face to face meeting which neither of them had previously expected to be possible. The majority of this manuscript is taken up with Cromek's account of what Pye said to him on this and subsequent meetings. The account given in the journal is largely chronological. It covers several areas of considerable interest: Pye himself and his life as an engraver; the history of engraving in the early part of the nineteenth century; Turner and Pye's connection with him; Pye's reminiscences of R. H. Cromek; material relating to William Blake; Pye's comments on other artists he had known including Constable, Mulready and T.H. Cromek's visit to Clarkson Stansfield.
