Warburg entitled the series «Mnemosyne, A Picture Series Examining the
Function of Preconditioned Antiquity-Related Expressive Values for the
Presentation of Eventful Life in the Art of the European Renaissance».
The atlas is fundamentally the attempt to combine the philosophical
with the image-historical approach. Attached on wooden boards covered
with black cloth are photographs of images, reproductions from books,
and visual materials from newspapers and/or daily life, which Warburg
arranges in such a way that they illustrate one or several thematic
areas.
