The collection consists of 53 handwritten letters from Richard Tweedy during his time in Holland with William Merritt Chase's 1903 summer abroad program, and from a later period when Tweedy lived in Paris.

Typed transcriptions of each letter are included.

Summary

Canadian elementary school teacher Roy F. Fleming (1878-1958) produced the notebook and drawing in this collection while attending the New York School of Art (later, Parsons School of Design) between 1902 and 1907. Fleming's notes include sketches illustrating lectures by Frank Alvah Parsons, William Merritt Chase, and Robert Henri. The collection also includes a photograph of Fleming, his diploma, and a color chart created for art instruction.
