 THE DEVELOPMENT OF SCENIC ART 
 AND STAGE MACHINERY 
 
 A LIST OF REFERENCES IN THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY 
 
 Compiled by William Burt Gamble 
 
 Chief of the Technology Division 
 
 Preface 
 
 'T^HIS work is the result of numerous requests made in the Technology Divi- 
 -*- sion for information concerning stage machinery and lighting. In an 
 effort to compile a short list which should satisfy ordinary wants, many refer- 
 ences to excellent material on scene-painting, scenic history, pictures, and other 
 matters of interest were noted. As these seemed too valuable to omit it was 
 decided, through an extension of the list into the fields of literature, history, 
 travel, and art, to enlarge the scope of the first plan. 
 
 The work had not progressed far before a large number of references to 
 stage pictures had been catalogued. These w^ere published in 1917 under the 
 title: "Stage scenery: a list of references to illustrations since 1900" (New 
 York Public Library Bulletin, May and June, 1917, v. 21, nos. 5 and 6. 
 Also issued as a separate). References to pictures antedating 1900, still in 
 manuscript, may be consulted on application to the Technology librarian in 
 Room 115. 
 
 The following list directs the reader into many byways of interest: stage 
 technique of the ancients and the archaeological investigations and contro- 
 versies concerning it; the mediaeval stage and the various accounts of the 
 quaint apparatus and properties used; the Elizabethan playhouse and the dis- 
 cussions as to its true character; the Oriental stage, including the marvellous 
 shadow puppets of the Javanese; stage development in England, France, Ger- 
 many, Spain, Italy, Russia, and America; practical scene painting; scenic 
 history from its crude beginnings, through the days of Sir William D'Avenant 
 and of De Loutherbourg, down to the modern conceptions of Gordon Craig, 
 Granville Barker, Leon Bakst, and Max Reinhardt, including the technique 
 of the "art theatres," especially of Munich, Paris, and IMoscow; the history 
 and present art of stage mechanics in which it may be noted that many of 
 the devices which we claim as modern are not so modern after all; and finally, 
 references to the remarkable development of the open-air theatre.

 A few words concerning the dramatic collection of the Library may not 
 be out of place: 
 
 The number of printed plays is large, embracing many languages. These 
 are listed in the public catalogue (Room 315) under the heading Drama, as: 
 Drama (American), Drama (English), etc. References to the dramas of cer- 
 tain Oriental countries may be found under the literature heading, as: Arabic 
 literature: Drama. The following sources should also be noted:

 Worthy of note is the Ellison collection of works on magic and legerdemain, one of the 
 
 best of its kind, including twenty-five scrap-books of letters, clippings, and magazine 
 
 articles. Room 315.
