Travel in Time

Experience the transformation of Marnas across more than 60 years.

Sven-Ingvar Andersson photographed his garden from the beginning. Anne Whiston Spirn started photographing Marnas in 1990. MIT Libraries scanned a large selection of SIA’s and Spirn’s photographs, which are now available on the MIT Libraries website. For more information and for permission to use photographs, see MIT’s Special Collection. To discover the locations for the photographs, take the Self-guided Tour and find the location of each image on the map.
