Documenting a Career
A business card Enid created for a private viewing at her studio at 315 W. Broadway, Louisville, KY. She kept a copy of the card in her personal scrapbook.
This page shows a Louisville Times article, "Miss Enid Yandell and her work." Enid received all this publicity before turning thirty years old.
A page from Enid's scrapbook shows a Courier-Journal article, "Miss Yandell's Work in Paris" (1896). The article also includes an image of a statuette of Miss Elsie Yandell, and an image of Enid at work in her Paris studio.
Pages from a photograph album created by Enid Yandell, demonstrating how she documented her works and her career.
Enid’s manuscript and photograph collections are housed here at the Filson. One of the many personal artifacts in her collection is a scrapbook that Enid created that documents her career. Enid was an entrepreneur and developed a name for herself as a young sculptor. She carefully cut and pasted articles that documented her art along with items of personal interest.
