The objects in the Walter Logan Fry collection
will be organized in three different formats. The virtual galleries (see icons below) are arranged as if the objects were displayed in
a physical gallery, so that the viewer can scroll horizontally to make
side by side comparisons between objects.
Related to this, comparative galleries will be added to show objects in the Fry Collection, side by side with
objects in public museums and private collections. Known objects by the
artist Ldamie, for example, can be directly compared with as yet unattributed
figures. With more examples to work from, this will
help gain a deeper understanding of the breadth and scope of Ldamie's
work. Thumbnail galleries, also to be added in the future, will allow the
viewer to look at the objects in a large window, and to shift between objects
by means of the thumbnails arranged in the left portion of the browser window.
Objects are arranged in broad, and sometimes imprecise categories. Please
remember that because this project is also part of a research endeavor,
we will not wait to have the entire exhibition completed before introducing
it to the web. For now, the virtual galleries will be introduced first.
Please return at periodic intervals for more.
