=== Notes From Elsewhere ===
Nee Salaman<br />Brenda Zara Seligman (photographer; academic/intellectual; collector; British; Female; 1882 - 1965)<br />Collector and photographer, greatly involved in the Anthropological Institute. Married Professor Charles Gabriel Seligman (q.v.) in 1905. They entered the field of Chinese, Korean and Indo-Chinese art in the 1920s and they jointly developed their collection which was continued after his death by Mrs Seligman and bequeathed by her in both their names to the Arts Council for a period of ten years (during which time an exhibition was held in London in 1966: 'The Seligman Collection of Oriental Art') on the understanding that afterwards the collection was to be divided between the British Museum (the majority of pieces) and the Victoria & Albert Museum. They contributed many pieces to the Royal Academy exhibition of 1935-1936. [From BM]<br />
