We are very pleased to present the fourth issue of our Journal, which begins with a text on the recently re-opened Faras Gallery, renovated thanks to the exceptional generosity of one the Museum’s Donors, Mr Wojciech Pawłowski and his family. Further texts concern medieval, baroque, 19th- and 20th-century art. We particularly recommend articles on Guercino – one of the most important Italian painters of the 17th century, including the text by Fausto Gozzi, director of Pinacoteca Civica di Cento, on a set of drawings with very original iconography: depicting witches and wizards.
