réf. 17960Both on his letterhead 11 Apple Tree Yard. 23 August and 24 November 1949. Both items in good condition lightly-aged. ONE: 2pp. 4to. Having returned from 'a rather long painting expedition to France' he finds that 'circumstances have arisen in regard to the administration of the Society' the Society of British Film Art Directors and Designers of which Craig was a leading light and in the light of these circumstances Irving feels compelled to resign. 'It is . unlikely that I shall design any more films. Life is short and there is so much to be done that even if anybody wished me to I should hesitate to commit myself to the months not only of work but of preoccupation which a film production involves. Quite apart from this I feel that the principles of film design which however wrongly I have always advocated are being abandoned naturally in the face of economic pressure and the general registration of film making. I am old fashioned enough to believe that the situation into which films have fallen is very largely due to the insistance sic of those who have misguidedly and not very successfully tried to make it into an industry rather than a medium of expression for groups of artists of enterprise and imagination.' Two more paragraphs follow before the letter ends. TWO: 1p. 4to. Following the last letter Irving has been offered honorary membership of the Society and writes: 'I do not feel that I deserve such consideration for you and several others have striven hard to maintain the prestige of Art Directors in the gruelling factory conditions of commercial studios through good and bad times. However as you well know to an artist the only commendation or criticism which really touches him is that of his fellow craftsmen .'. He offers his assistance to the Society before ending: 'I heard from Flower that your meeting in London was a success and that you are going to get out drawings and plans for the proposed Elizabethan theatre. I am very glad to hear this and I know you will find the Stratford people charming to deal with.' Both on his letterhead, 11 Apple Tree Yard. 23 August and 24 November 1949. unknown
