Yale Library 1998



Earlier on the By-Product I showed some sketches from the mini-scholarly conference I attended at Yale. We non-official scholars got to use the elegant Sterling Memorial Library reference room. I did my scholarly work but took time to do this highly detailed depiction of the room. That's real stained glass in those windows. The squarish shape at lower right is a lamp for us readers and sketchers. They still run this conference over more than 23 years! But I have moved on and need to allocate my resources where I can do my more important work. (What is my "more important" work? Something artistic I guess).
