A bunch of us are planning to meet at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York on 13 December, 2003. Times and meeting place to be determined. Watch this space for details.There is an exhibition of medieval manuscripts that runs from September 30, 2003 until February 1, 2004. If you can't make it with us, find your way there somehow. This isn't to be missed. Here's a blurb about the exhibition: This exhibition will present to the public for the first time the magnificent collection of Italian illuminated manuscripts formed by Robert Lehman (1891b 1969). On display will be 101 single leaves and cuttings and two bound volumes, ranging in date from the 13th to the 16th century and covering the major centers of manuscript production in Italy. Among them are works by some of the most famous names in Italian painting, such as Duccio di Buoninsegna, Stefano da Verona, and Cosimo Tura, as well as visually stunning examples by leading figures in the history of Italian manuscript illumination. Accompanied by a comprehensive catalogue of all the pieces formerly in the collection. For further details, please see the Met website: http://www.metmuseum.org/home.asp Kass
