[MR] Limbourg Brothers (was Re: Book of interest to Scadians)

[Karen]

Which reminds me -- the Metropolitan Museum of Art is having an exhibition next spring, "The Art of Illumination: The Limbourg Brothers and the Belles Heures of Jean de France, Duc de Berry" -- http://www.metmuseum.org/special/se_event.asp?OccurrenceId={288576D8-CAF2-4560-B690-9436DE2FA717}

At about the same time, the Met is also hosting an exhibition of the mourners from the tomb of John the Fearless, Duke of Burgundy -- http://www.metmuseum.org/special/se_event.asp?OccurrenceId={A847D374-B77D-4447-B515-6187127F6462}   (This second exhibition will be travelling around the U.S., and will visit Richmond, Virginia in 2012.)



Keep an eye on http://larsdatter.com/wordpress/?cat=3 for information about upcoming museum exhibits (or read my scintillating columns in "Tournaments Illuminated") ;-)

You can also use the tags on the blog to find exhibits in a particular location -- for example, http://larsdatter.com/wordpress/?tag=washington-dc will find all of the exhibits in Washington, DC. :-)
