Christ the Kingand Marquette Historical Archives
Research network
The significance of Christ the King becomes clearer when its local records are read beside the papers, collections, and scholarship maintained by museums, libraries, universities, and preservation organizations. These links are research pathways. They do not imply that every institution holds a Christ the King specific record.
Each entry connects an external research institution with the relevant internal archive collection.
The Ryerson and Burnham Libraries preserve extensive resources concerning art, architecture, artists, and architects. They are a major research starting point for the Chicago context surrounding Byrne, Iannelli, Miller, and related modern design.
The American School of Architecture Archive preserves drawings, photographs, planning records, and models associated with Bruce Goff and the wider American School.
Loyola hosts a digital version of the Bishop Francis C. Kelley papers through an agreement with the Archdiocese of Oklahoma City. Copyright and publication questions remain with the holding archive identified by Loyola.
The museum’s collection includes works by Olive Rush and provides an institutional record of her wider artistic practice.
A national archival survey identifies an extensive body of Edgar Miller papers at the Chicago History Museum, including sketchbooks, correspondence, clippings, exhibit records, and reference material.
The organization maintains a growing research archive, educational resources, and scholarship devoted to Miller’s work and Chicago’s modern artistic culture.
The surviving Park Ridge studio provides essential context for Alfonso Iannelli, his collaborators, and the artistic network in which Edgar Miller worked.
