Description:

Slides showing various paintings, statues, ancient monuments and buildings, stly relating to religious iconography, collected and taken by Miriam Hebron as part of her research for the book 'Statistical Studies of the Iconography of the Dragon in Biblical texts of the 13th and 14th centuries'. The slides appear to have been taken during visits to various places including the USSR, Torcello, Venice, Padua and Ravenna. Some of the slides show people including a female who may be Dr Hebron. Note that there are also two boxes of slides showing the mausoleum of the Chinese Emperor Qin Shi Huang in which were found bronze charriots, horses, and the terracotta warriors, these appear to have been purchased rather than taken by Dr Hebron.
