The post you’ve all been waiting for - The Met

[eithni]

There is entirely too much to even begin to summarize the few galleries I did see, so I’ll simply highlight my very favorite pieces.

May as well burn me a CD of them all :) I can get you a blank in exchange at 12th Night.

Modern stuff too, or just the period appropriate stuff?

[teffan]

Both please! I don't know when I'm going to have a chance to get to NY/etc.

[eithni]

Done!

Collect at Twelfth Night!

For us...

[shavasue]

Arm and Armor (heavy, light, oriental)
Griffins (multiple sources, includes mosaics, artifacts, etc.)

Sounds like a fantastic trip!

I love that Studiola too. One of the panels depicts a clock from the time period. It is very cool.

I think you should chat with Thuri about the brooch. She is a jewler by profession and could probably be talked into a comission. She already has plans to make a spiral brooch and would benefit from your photos.

Glad you had fun! Your postcard arrived yesterday. ;^)
