Description

Unpublished archive of over 250 candid slides of the Kennedy family

Archive of over 250 color slides of candid photographs of the Kennedy family taken by photographer Harry Jay Siskind from the late 1970s through to the early 1990s. The archive contains never-before-published images of members of the Kennedy family, including Rose Kennedy, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, John F. Kennedy, Jr., Caroline Kennedy, Joan Bennett Kennedy, and Ted Kennedy, who is the subject of the majority of the images, including five images that appear to show Ted strolling nude along a beach. Numerous slides bear Siskind’s copyright stamp and annotations, and the archive is complemented by a large number of negative strips that appear to contain additional Kennedy images not found in the slide archive. In overall fine condition.
