New Head of Prints and Drawings at the Morgan Museum and Library.
“This week the Morgan announced that Linda Wolk-Simon, a curator in the department of drawings and prints at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, will be taking the job. Ms. Wolk-Simon, who will start in May, is a specialist in Italian Renaissance Art.”
I love this intermingling of staff of my two absolute favorite institutions. I suppose I am biased towards anyone interested in Italian Renaissance art.
