The new exhibit showcases Russian icons in the M&G collection that haven't been on display in almost five years. But this exhibit is more than just a display. It's a timeline of the journey of Russian art to America, and it's designed to give visitors a feel for the unique gala and glamour of imperial Russian culture. The exhibit features pieces owned by the Museum & Gallery as well as items on loan from the Cleveland Museum of Art, the Hillwood Museum in Washington, D.C., and others. It brings together some of the finest Fabergé jewelry, paintings and Russian icons. According to M&G's director Mrs. Erin Jones, the entire exhibit is designed to put art in the context of a real culture. - BJU Collegian.

Includes bibliographical references.Ethiopia: an introduction -- Crosses -- Icons -- Manuscripts."The unique character of Ethiopian art is the legacy of its situation high in the mountains, on the Horn of Africa. Though remote and often isolated it evolved a tradition in response to contacts with Byzantine, European and Islamic cultures. Beginning in the twelfth century, elaborate crosses were cast and engraved in iron and bronze. Painted and carved icons were produced in a tradition that reached its peak at the end of the seventeenth century. Above all it is illustrated manuscripts which have provided the most defining expression of Ethiopian Christianity."--Jacket.
