COVER: This pair of lovers caught in the act of fleeing, with drapery flying. from a sudden squall form the central images of the huge painting. The Storm, by Pierre Auguste Cot, reproduced in its entirety on page 6o. Painted in i88o for the French Salon trade. it has belonged to the Metropolitan Museum of Art since 1887. Although most of the once fashionable academic paintings of the nineteenth century remaining in museum collections have long since been relegated to basement storage. Cot's "clas- sical tour de force occupies a place on a gallery wall. An article about Salon paintings both in their prime and decline begins on page 52.

FRONTISPIECE: Arrayed beside the more prosaic goats and camel in this fifteenth- century woodcut are such zoological marvels as a long-horned giraffe. a unicorn, a star-spangled salamander, and a near relative of the Abominable Snowman. Although the artist hedges a bit on the latter ("There is no agreement about the name" the Latin caption reads), he flatly asserts: "These animals are truthfully depicted just as we saw them in the Holy Land." This is an illustration from Breydenbach's Travels in the Holy Land, published in Mainz in 1486. An article about another pilgrim who made the same journey begins on page.
