Silhouette Catalogue Update

We had hoped to offer a public verision of the catalogue during mid 2022 but various issues are delaying publication.  We anticipate overcoming these during the next 12 months and will update readers ASAP with a release date.

Silhouette Catalogue

Delayed by the pandemic, the Catalogue is now taking its final form.  The public verision of the work will be uploaded during the first half of 2022.

Catalogue coming...

Over the period of the lockdown, we have been cataloguing the Joll Collection.  We are finally nearing the end of the job and will soon make a copy of the key information available via the website.

Sad loss to the silhouette world

Ms Diana Joll, long time editor and the Sihouette Collector's Club Newsletter and leading authority on British portrait silhoutette history has died today, following a long illness. Diana's support for the development of this website is extensively documented in our pages, without her enthusiasm and guidance the Profiles project would not exist. We extend our sympathies to those in her family and to her many friends and we share in the pain of the loss.
