Agnes Warburg

She had been encouraged to take up photography by her brother, John Cimon Warburg (1867–1931), who also worked with colour.^[2]

Warburg exhibited at the Linked Ring and at the Royal Photographic Society, where she was a founder-member of the Pictorial and Colour Groups.^[3] As a result of her Pictorialist approach, she used photography as an art form rather than for commercial gain. Her results using the Autochrome process were of a remarkably high quality.^[4]

Warburg died on 4 January 1953 at her home in Bramley, Surrey, where she had lived for the final seven years of her life.^[5] In her will, she gave 70 acres (28 ha) of land on Box Hill to the National Trust.^[6]
