Notes
Three folders of materials (reproductions and study photographs) in this section are housed separately with other oversized materials in the Tabarant Collection.
These materials came with the Tabarant Collection on its acquisition in 1974. Some were clearly generated or collected by Mina Curtiss and her research assistant Liliane Yacoel (later Liliane Ziegel), but others appear to have been created or collected by earlier owners, including Adolphe Tabarant.
Provenance
From the collection of Adolphe Tabarant (1863-1950); by descent to his daughter Lucienne Tabarant and sold by her to Mina Curtiss (1896-1985) in 1960; purchased as the gift of Mrs. Charles Engelhard and children in memory of Mr. Charles Engelhard in 1974.
