Gombrich's Intellectual Biography of Aby Warburg Reviewed
A review in artpress (issue 427, November 2015, p. 106) examines Ernst Gombrich's intellectual biography of Aby Warburg, published by Klincksieck. The review notes that Italian historian Carlo Ginzburg wrote in 1966 that 'discovering today the value of the lesson of Warburg and his friends and continuators would be somewhat ridiculous,' yet the book's publication was still awaited.
