[QUOTE="+VGO.DVCKS, post: 5253933, member: 110504"]Thank you, [USER=110350]@DonnaML[/USER], for [B]all[/B] of that. I vividly remember your having grown up in range of the Cloisters, let alone the Met and MOMA. Which registers from here as Total, albeit benign, Craziness. But what I'm also getting is that your disinclination to venture far into Byzantine and other European medieval is operative not only on esthetic levels, but on ones which are only more profound, by orders of magnitude. As far as esthetics, it's like, The Defense Rests. Guilty, As Charged. :<} And even for an adherent, collecting this stuff really takes maintaining a certain base level of vigilance about the ways that the Christian visual rhetoric was put to toxic use, of a broadly political nature. I hear you. Please, Consider yourself Heard. ...And where collecting is concerned, Everyone needs priorities. On Any given budget. Thank you, kind of integral to the process.[/QUOTE]
