I spent yesterday either playing with my grandchildren or listening to the static on AM radio waiting for the new pope to be announced after white smoke issued from the Sistine Chapel chimney. Not much to say! Instead how about two pictures of Saint Peter from the National Gallery of Art. Both are from the 16th century and neither has an actual artist’s name attached.

The first is neillo’d silver, etching that is filled in with the shining metal to make the picture.

This second picture is oil paint on a wood panel.
