the archives restorations research reports valuations contacts the figurehead archives print email built up during a period of over 40 years the full figurehead archive can be divided into two quite distinctive areas of research, the first and perhaps most important are the photographic representations of ships figureheads, both on and off the vessels, plus a number of other maritime woodcarvings, such as stern board carvings, and cats heads, this is built up from historic black and white prints taken from the early 1900’s until the late 1950’s, to more contemporary prints in colour, and now digital images. the archive also has an extensive collection of colour slides from both private and public collections around the world, many show figureheads that have been lost due to war, fire, neglect, or are no longer on public display or form part of private collections. in many ways it has been possible to study the life of individual carvings over a long period of time, looking at both historic black and white photos and more contemporary prints showing before and after restoration or damage, at the moment the photographic collection stands at around 45,000 images, including slides, photographs and digital images, with new items added almost daily. the second part of the figurehead archive is a library of over 800 books and publications on the subject of ships figureheads, maritime, woodcarvings, maritime antiques including a large number of magazines, newspaper articles and cuttings from the 1850’s to the present day from all around the world. as with the photographic collection the bibliography material is being constantly added to building a collection and archive of international importance. richard hunter, figurehead historian. the lady young figurehead -
