DescriptionRelating to her book 'Differencing the canon : feminism and the writing of art's histories' (1999).

Pollock had to rework her chapter on Himid. Asks for 'faboulous photograph' of Himid to include as 'assertion of presence', that declares her 'greatness, wit, humour & artistic persona'. The book will also include images by Cecil Beaton, and Man Ray's photographes of Gertrude Stein and Alice B. Toklas.
