Daniel H. Burnham Photograph Albums

Three family photograph albums have been added to the Art Institute's Ryerson & Burnham Libraries. In April 2008, Daniel H. Burnham family heirs gathered in the Libraries' Reading Room to donate some business papers and three photograph albums—important and fascinating additions to the Burnham archives that offer rare images of the private Burnham, with his wife, his children and his friends. The family also loaned two silver loving cups that had been given to Burnham; the loving cups are currently on display in the Franke Reading Room.
