    Visual Materials

    This collection contains approximately 700 pieces of ephemera that along with more than 500 separately cataloged books form the Diana Korzenik Collection of Art Education representing the evolution of art education in the United States from mainly 1800 to 1950. The collection was assembled by Massachusetts professor Diana Korzenik over a period of nearly three decades, and the ephemera is composed of instructional materials (e.g. art instruction manuals, art reproductions, drawing books, drawing cards, painting books, penmanship books, etc.), objects (e.g. boxed painting sets, drawing slates, models, drawing desks, colored pencils, crayons, paint, etc.) and non-instructional materials (e.g. promotional materials, scrapbooks, coursework by Korzenik's students, catalogs, etc.). With the exception of the Mabel Spofford archive, which she purchased as a whole, Korzenik pursued each item individually with the aim of assembling frequently overlooked and misunderstood material.
