About Aby Warburg

"Abraham Moritz Warburg, known as Aby Warburg (June 13, 1866 – October 26, 1929), was a German art historian and cultural theorist who founded a private Library for Cultural Studies, the Kulturwissenschaftliche Bibliothek Warburg, later Warburg Institute. At the heart of his research was the legacy of the Classical World, and the transmission of classical representation, in the most varied areas of western culture through to the Renaissance.

Warburg described himself as:

           Amburghese di cuore, ebreo di sangue, d'anima Fiorentino
           (Hamburger at heart, Jew by blood, Florentine in spirit)''''''
