English: Inscription: The famous architect Ti, stepping out of his tomb to offer to build Chim’s new palace in Florida
Sakkarah, 22 March In early 1912, as Vizcaya’s owner James Deering prepared to purchase land in Miami and interview architects, he traveled to Egypt. A group of close friends and relatives, including his half-brother Charles Deering, and his sister Abby’s husband, Richard Howe, accompanied James Deering for the three-week tour. This comical watercolor card collection documents their trip up the Nile aboard the riverboat Oonas. Though the cards are unsigned, they are most likely the work of Charles Deering, who studied art in Paris in the early 1890s. These lighthearted illustrations offer a rare glimpse into the social context and personality of James Deering during one of his favorite pastimes: travelling the world. Each card includes brief captions in which James Deering is referred to as “Chim” and Richard Howe is referred to as “Tick.” |
