Smithsonian ~ Gates of Paradise restored

20071031SmithsonianGatesofParadiseRestoration

I referenced the Gates of Paradise tour in the new "Out to See" section on the right of the page, and decided to actually post on it after going through the photos.  This restoration is amazingly beautiful, and if you can get to Chicago, New York, or Seattle while the Gates are on tour, you should do it!  You’ll have to go all the way to Florence once they’re returned home.  Maybe that would be okay too.  Check out the article from Smithsonian magazine by clicking on the picture above.
