13 April plate update

I have been working...the plate is complex and the work goes slowly. I have been fitting this in with much other work - I am curator of two exhibitions on drawing that open imminently (Apri 24 and May 2). And I had a week-long trip to to NY and CT last week. I am back in Iowa now, and went to Terrace Hill with a proof of the engraving the other day. I did most of the work on the plate in Italy, so this was the first time that I was able see the image on the plate in the room itself. Did some drawing on the proof to tell me what to do next. The square/round frame in the other room is for a copy of Raphael's Madonna della Sedia.
