	Walters Art Gallery in Baltimore Re-opens (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		This presentation of the Walters’ renowned collection does more than display individual works of art by theme or chronology; it narrates history, offering a window on the past, the customs and beliefs of the world’s great cultures, and the daily lives lived within them.
		Standing at the center of the Icon Gallery, visitors will have a view into four adjoining galleries, and four religious expressions: Within the Christian tradition are the silver Byzantine altar; a Gothic altar that recalls a French cathedral in the 13th century; and a carved and painted wooden altar from Flanders around 1500.
		In a presentation that is unprecedented for the Walters, visitors will be invited to sit at the large wooden table in the middle of the oak plank floor and while away time in the manner of a medieval knight over chess or backgammon.

		It was the first art lesson for the month of November and gave the children a thorough introduction to what architecture is, the kinds of questions we can ask ourselves when we look at architecture, and what kinds of questions an architect has to consider in designing a building or bridge.

	JAIC 1994, Volume 33, Number 2, Article 6 (pp. 141 to 152)
		A review from this perspective seems fitting, since Henry Walters, who built the Walters Art Gallery in 1904, was one of America's foremost collectors of ancient bronzes, and he demonstrated a deep concern for their preservation.
		On December 7 (Walters Correspondence), Canessa answered that he had found no “radical means of stopping a corroding canker which affects especially Egyptian bronzes.” He added that the most lasting method he had found was to rub wax with a small brush on the spot each time the spot reappeared.
		On December 8 (Walters Correspondence), Walters wrote to Robinson passing on Canessa's advice and asking for information on Robinson's use of “lime” in display cases (Walters may be confused here since Robinson's reply describes the use of the highly hygroscopic potassium hydroxide, not lime).

	French Paintings From Maryland - French art in the Baltimore Museum of Art and the Walters Art Gallery Contemporary ...
		Both picture galleries in the populous American city of Baltimore testify the civic patriotism and munificence of two Maryland families who used their riches to enhance the lives of others: the Cones and the Walters.
		Fifty modern French paintings from the Baltimore Museum of Art and the Walters Art Gallery have arrived at the Royal Academy on their sole visit to Europe, under the title From Ingres to Matisse.
		Chronologically the Fauves (or 'wild beasts', a scornful epithet which they cheerfully adopted) were given the last word on the contention between drawing and colour which had occupied French painters for a century, and in their view colour decidedly won.

		On Saturday 18 November 2006, almost a year after my last visit, a group had scheduled a field trip to the Walters, but it was cancelled and nobody told me. So I was there "all by my lonesome." But it turned out to be a wonderful day anyway.
