Review essay on "Drawing in Silver and Gold: Leonardo to Jasper Johns"
 

Pleased to have this new essay up:

On The Arts Fuse: Susan De Sola Rodstein provides a fascinating and in-depth look at "Drawing in Silver and Gold: Leonardo to Jasper Johns." Published by Princeton University Press, the beautifully illustrated catalogue, with essays by conservators and curators, focuses upon six centuries of metalpoint drawing, a little studied and still poorly understood medium. The exhibition that inspired the book is current at the British Museum through December 6.

Here. (fixed the link!)

Great stuff, Susan. Very interesting. I might even get to see this exhibition.

Thank you--I fixed the link, which should now work.

Well done, Susan. - I shall be seeing the exhibition!
