Metropolitan Museum Journal: Volume 31, 1996
Metropolitan Museum Journal: Volume 31, 1996
ENLARGE

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.

This volume is particularly broad in its range—from an important study of four ancient mirrors housed in four different curatorial collections at the Museum to a discussion of works by Otto Dix in the Department of 20th Century Art (now Modern Art). Of special interest are three articles based on papers given at a recent symposium on the works of Francisco de Goya y Lucientes and a group of notes about selected recent acquisitions.

224 pages, 415 black-and-white illustrations, 9 in. x 11 3/8 in. Hardcover; clothbound, with jacket.
