Beskrivelse | Michael Chekhov on the Private Lawn at Dartington Hall. Taken on Beatrice Straight's birthday in the first year Chekhov came to Dartington Hall.
Mounted copy belonged to George Bennett and was given to him by Chekhov in 1938. Writing on the front reads 'To Mr George Bennett with my most sincere feeling. M Chekhov 1938'. There are two notes on the back, reading: 'Taken on Beatrices' birthday, Aug 2nd, the first year Mr Chekhov came to Dartington Hall, 1936', 'Dec 1951 Upon the visit of Ms Elmhirst [Beatrice] she expressed appreciation of the photo'. Both appear to have been written by George Bennett. |
