[ca 1930s]. Original black and white photograph of Virginia Woolf, undated, circa mid-1930's, 5 x 7". Near Fine with traces of mounting and marking at verso. A striking and unusual photograph, likely taken by Leonard Woolf, at their 16th-century cottage, Monk's House. Virginia gazes situated with an open book on a decorative chair with fabric designed by her sister, Vanessa Bell. Taken within moments of a very similar photograph of Woolf reproduced on the top half of 93 pp. A Marriage of True Minds by Spater & Parsons, 1977. The authors of the book do not date the photograph or identify the photographer, but this on identical stock to that of a photograph of Leonard Woolf by Virginia Woolf, dated 1937, formerly offered by Serendipity Books, with Peter Howard's typed note to that effect.
