I am a professor emerita of humanities in the Midwest, with a great interest in ancient and medieval art and architecture. Most of my photos are for academic purposes, but I try to make them beautiful as well as informative. I appreciate advice on museum and other low-light shooting techniques. I speak Italian and read French.

Please visit my website: www.pilgrimtothepast.com.

I have two books featuring my photography: Understanding Medieval Last Judgment Art (www.amazon.com/Understanding-Medieval-Last-Judgment-Art/d...), and How to Read a Photograph: Frame and Focus (www.amazon.com/How-Read-Photograph-Frame-Focus/dp/1732044...). After the pandemic passes and it's safe to travel again, I'll be working on my next book, on Romanesque carvers' story-telling.

If you wish to purchase some of my prints (or discuss them with me), my website is www.madmaenad.com, with my email: chezcirce@gmail.com. I'd be delighted to hear from you.
