The Lewis Chessmen


The Game of Kings: Medieval Ivory Chessmen from Isle of Lewis: was a recent exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of New York. I'm sorry I missed it, I would have made a special effort to see the exhibit especially
as it was taking place at the Cloisters, one of my favorite places in New York.
