scopecontent: label: Scope and Contents note
content: This subseries consists of photographs that were designated as study photographs. They depict a wide variety of works of art by other artists, ranging from ancient art to work created by Barnard's contemporaries. However photographs depicting medieval and Renaissance art and architecture, particularly details from Michaelangelo's Sistine Chapel, form the bulk of this collection. Presumably this collection of reference photographs was assembled and retained by the artist and reflects his interests as well as sources for his own work.
