WHITE-GLOVE TREATMENT

WHITE-GLOVE TREATMENT

cgibbs

Students donned white gloves for an in-depth tour of the photography collection housed inside the Maryville University Archives. The active learning experience was part of a History of Photography class taught by art historian and adjunct professor Kelly Scheffer. Under the guidance of knowledge consultant and archivist Emma Prince, ’13, students viewed glass-plate negatives, daguerreotypes (images formed on silver-coated copper plates) and albumen prints as well as 20th century prints. In addition to viewing photographs depicting life at the old campus of Maryville Academy, students enjoyed a series of photographs of Winifred Prendergast, Maryville’s first resident athletic coach who is famous for introducing the sport of badminton to St. Louis.
