Dear Colleagues,
I have been asked to forward this message as widely as possible to
publicize this resource. Whilst I realize it is unlikely that people from abroad
will attend the launch event, we hope you will find the resource useful in
research.
Best wishes,

>Subject: Launch of the Gothic Ivories website...
>
>Dear all,
>This is to let you know that the official launch of the Gothic
Ivories
>Website will take place onWednesday 15 December 2010, 6.00-7.00 in the
>Research Forum, at the Courtauld Institute, London .
>
>The Gothic Ivories Project, launched at the Courtauld Institute in
October
>2008, is an electronic catalogue bringing together images and
information
>about Gothic ivories now scattered in collections around the world.
It has
>been made possible by the invaluable collaboration and active
support of
>colleagues in many museums, galleries and photographic agencies.
>As a resource it will allow wide-ranging searches on iconography,
provenance,
>origin, post-medieval repairs and replacements, modern forgeries,
and many
>other relevant aspects.
>
>The event will take the form of a presentation of the website,
demonstrating
>how powerful a tool it will be for future research in this field.
>
>This event will celebrate the true beginning of the Gothic Ivories
Project
>as, from that date, at least 400 objects will be accessible to all
online and
>free of charge through the Gothic Ivories web site (which means over
600
>images, as several views are usually available for each object):
regular
>uploads will, after that date, increase these numbers with, in the
longer
>term, up to 3,500/4,000 objects.
>
