Ooooh - BIG Byzantine Blockbuster
The Royal Academy of Arts mounts a blockbuster show (300 pieces!) of Byzantine art this fall - and it comes from all over. If you follow the link the pictures are disappointingly small, but give you some idea. The story leads with the typical conspiracy theory that the Antioch Chalice was the Holy Grail - but hey, if it gets 'em out. . . .
This link to the RAs exhibition page is much more satisfying.
