[tlclark]

Here's the earliest review from Burlington Magazine 1907.

The Nimbus in Eastern Art-I
J. Tavenor-Perry
The Burlington Magazine for Connoisseurs, Vol. 12, No. 55. (Oct., 1907), pp. 20-23.

and

The Nimbus in Eastern Art-II
J. Tavenor-Perry
The Burlington Magazine for Connoisseurs, Vol. 12, No. 56. (Nov., 1907), pp. 95-96

This is really a nice crossover article as it traces it's origin through to the Eastern tradition in Buddhist Art. I have the pdf if anyone is interested.

The Halo: A Further Enquiry into Its Origin
E. H. Ramsden
The Burlington Magazine for Connoisseurs, Vol. 78, No. 457. (Apr., 1941), pp. 123-127+131.
