I dote upon mummies! The British Museum has a particularly interesting collection. Here's one I quite liked:
And this mummy portrait from the Roman period, a lovely encaustic panel painting of A.D. ca. 160, really reminded me of my former mother in law! She has the same elegance.
I am a keen amateur photographer, an avid traveler, a dedicated researcher. My main area of interest is the European middle ages although I like history and culture, especially social history, of all eras and regions. I am especially fond of good architecture and I am really, really fond of reptiles.
I usually post this blog to share highlights from my travels with family and friends. If you are a potential friend wandering by, you are welcome; any of my art or nature images posted here are available for non profit personal or study use, and if reproduced I ask that I be credited as photographer.
