May 13: A day that will live in blogging history

Let's say that the most recent volume of a prestigious academic journal has just come out. Let's say that that journal just so happens to be the flagship journal of the College Art Association. Let's just make believe that said journal is Art Bulletin. Now, what's this? Almost an entire volume dedicated to an essay called "The Mirrors of Las Meninas: Cochineal, Silver, and Clay" by one Byron Hamann? Don't we know him?

Well, it appears that he knows us!



In case you'd like to remind yourself. Pour the bubbly, Pasha!
