Fonds consists of a notebook commenced by Anna Belle Wing Kindlund in 1895, in which she recorded information on works of art and architectural monuments (chiefly European), with thumbnail-sized albumen prints of many of the items and occasional ink sketches. The notebook has alphabetical index tabs, and its entries are alphabetical according to city. The inscription on the frontispiece reads “Anna Belle Wing – B.S. ‘95”. The fonds is arranged in a single series.
Fonds was donated by David Kinahan in May, 2004.
No further accruals are expected.
The notebook was purchased, perhaps in London, England, by David Kinahan, who donated it to the Art Gallery of Ontario Library in 2004.
