Personal Papers of Keith Vaughan

1908–77

Available online are a selection of Vaughan's journals. These cover a number of time periods starting with his first journal which he began in August 1939, a group of four journals about his time at Eden Prisoner of War Camp in North Yorkshire between 1944 and 1945, and his last journal from 1975 to 1977. These journals are the personal thoughts, to a certain extent about the development of artistic ideas, but also about Vaughan's mental state, depression and sexual angst and desires.

Details of the remainder of the collection can be found on the archive catalogue.
