Teaching both Western and Asian surveys makes me very happy. I get to revisit so many of the greatest hits, so to speak. Tired, but never tired of art. 🥰🙏

#MedievalTwitter #FontCovers Spent hours looking at 19th- c watercolors. Fascinating/depressing. Some 17th-c covers survive, but changed: St Margaret's Church, Cley (💕the 1852 blue), while others are just the same: Enford (1865/today), both Norfolk.
#FontCovers Font covers on the move. 1850s watercolor by Frederick Sandys shows a different Jacobean font cover than there is now. Current font cover is really quite fine.
