Summary:

Research materials, primarily manuscript notes, slides, photographs and microfilm, on the subject of Francesco di Giorgio and in particular on the Francesco di Giorgio material in the Zichy Codex in the Erwin Szabo Public Library in Budapest. A 2017 addition to the collection is chiefly composed of draft versions of an unpublished essay on Francesco di Giorgio by Carolyn Kolb. Some of the drafts include notations and text added posthumously by Gustina Scaglia, Sally Hickson and Myra Nan Rosenfeld, who tried to finish the essay so that it could be published. The 2017 addition also includes correspondence related to the essay.
