Metropolitan Museum Journal, Volume 49, 2014

The Metropolitan Museum Journal, issued annually by the Metropolitan Museum of Art, publishes original research on works in the Museum's collections and the areas of investigation they represent. The essays in this volume include a new analysis of Greek marble sculptures in the museum's collection, two articles on Tullio Lombardo's Adam, a case-study of lessons learned from scientific analysis of the Peiter Coecke van Aelst tapestry Gluttony, and a discussion of "The Expulsion from Paradise" by Charles Joseph Natoire, which was once owned by Honore de Balzac.
