The Metropolitan Museum Journal is issued annually by The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Its purpose is to publish original research on works in the Museum's collections and the areas of investigation they represent. Contributions, by members of the Museum staff and other specialists, vary in length from monographic studies to brief notes. The wealth of the Museum's collections and the scope of these essays make the Journal essential reading for all scholars and amateurs of the fine arts.
Volume 40 is published in memory of John M. Bradley, who was Sherman Fairchild Chairman of Paintings Conservation at the Metropolitan Museum, from 1975 to 1989.
272 pages, 250 illustrations (40 in full color), 9 in. x 11 3/8 in. Hardcover; clothbound, with jacket.
