Abstract
It is obvious that the history of art and the history of architecture were impossible as academic disciplines until photography had reached a practical working level; it is less recognized by many university administrators that art and architectural historians need laboratories as much as do scientists, that the prime laboratories for art are museums, and for architecture the monuments themselves. And these laboratories need to be supplemented by a special iconographic collection with which to bridge the recording-communication gap between the artifact or building and the books.
