Warburg photography collection receives donation for preservation

London's Warburg Institute has received a donation from Professor Elizabeth McGrath, in support of its Photographic Collection. The Warburg Institute's Photographic Collection was established by Aby Warburg in the late 1880s and contains around 400,000 photographs of sculptures, paintings, drawings, prints, tapestries, and other forms of imagery from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It also has an expanding online counterpart.
