The British Institute Archive
The Archive contains documentation relating to the Institute’s rich history spanning almost the entire twentieth-century. The special collections of nineteenth-century and twentieth-century material are devoted to individuals or families with a particular connection to Florence: some of these were English travellers passing through the city on tour, others became those residents known as the Anglo-Florentines.
Our special collections:
- Hutton Collection
- Horner Collection
- Maquay Collection
- Waterfield Collection
- Edward Gordon Craig Collection
- Vernon Lee Collection
