Workshop on infrared reflectography

A summer workshop in Infrared Reflectography

This 1998 summer workshop will be held at the Straus Center for
Conservation, in the Fogg Art Museum, Cambridge, Massachusetts. The
workshop is designed to introduce advanced art history and
conservation students to infrared reflectography and the study of
underdrawings. A strong emphasis will be placed on the use of
digital imaging in this field. The workshop will be taught by Molly
Faries (Indiana University), Henry Lie, and Ron Spronk, and can
accommodate a maximum of sixteen participants.

The workshop will take place from August 17-22, 1998. Students may
attend by paying a $350 fee. Some limited scholarship monies may be
available, but participants will be responsible for their own travel
and living expenses. The Straus Center can provide a list of places
to stay in the Cambridge area.

Interested students should submit a letter of application which
includes an outline of research interests and a CV, with a telephone
number or e-mail address. Applications requesting funds towards the
