Catalogue of the Albert Hoxie Slide Collection Compiled by Kent Fielding Schull Summer 2001 Collection Owned by the Department of History, UCLA Introduction This catalogue is a guide to the contents of Albert Hoxie’s entire slide collection of over 160,000 slides of art and architecture from all periods and from around the world. It is ordered according to his method of organization. There are three major sections. Section I is organized according to Area, Painter, and Time Period, for example: if you wish to see if the collection contains the works of Titian, look under Italian Painters 16th Century. Section II consists of artists and artistic works other than paintings and is organized according to Place, Subject Type, and Time Period,1 therefore if you want the sculptural works of Michelangelo then look up under Italian Artists 16th Century. Section III consists of numerous slides taken of sites and architecture around the world. This section is organized according to country, town/city, and specific place.2 For example if you want to see if the collection holds slides of Christ’s Church College in Oxford, England; you would look under Central England, Oxford, Christ’s Church, etc.3 It is also possible to search the collection by using the binoculars icon in the Adobe Acrobat Reader (assuming you have the PDF form of this document). We strongly encourage faculty participation in the identification of slides. If you find an artist, area, or time period that is of interest and would like to use the slides or hasten the process of digitization, please contact Kent Schull:
