Scope and Content Note
The papers of Natacha Rambova (1897-1966) date from the late 1950s and early 1960s and contain typed monographs and notes as well as prints and photographs. Formerly known as Winifred Shaughnessy Hudnut, Rambova married Rudolph Valentino in 1922. The unpublished monographs in these papers reflect Rambova's research in Egyptology and cosmology which was sponsored largely by the Bollingen Foundation. Rambova contributed to a series of publications by the foundation entitled Egyptian Religious Texts and Representations. Illustrations prepared for Rambova's monographs are filed separately. Also included are typed notes pertaining to Greek mythology.
