Dear Friends and Colleagues,
As many of you know, I have been researching the artist Boris Chaliapin
(son of the singer) this year. The first exhibit (for which I have been
historical consultant) of his unpublished covers for TIME Magazine opens
this week. For those of you nearby, I thought you might like to come to
the opening or to my lecture on April 5. For those of you too far away,
I thought you would enjoy hearing about this exciting exhibit of Boris's
works.
All best,
Dassia
