[MR] Exhibit of Medieval Aquamanilia

[Sorcha de Glys]

I was impressed with the book on the exhibition.  It contains around 35 
pieces and even contains x-rays of each item showing the internal 
structure.  Unfortunately, it was $50.  I think I'll wait until the 
exhibition is over and then get it on "sale" at a Met store or on the 
Met website.  I've always wanted to make one for my table.

Cheers,
Sorcha de Glys
