The Art Institute of Chicago Museum Studies, published twice annually, presents articles on the collections and history of the Art Institute. Expanding consideration of the geographic, economic, social, political, intellectual, and religious contexts of the works, articles in this issue include a piece on a tall case clock designed in 1906 by two Viennese Wiener Werkstätte artists, Josef Hoffmann and Carl Otto Czeschka; an analysis of a group of Nazca ceramics in the Art Institute; a close look at Claude Lorrain’s Panoramic View from the Sasso near Rome; an examination of Bartolomeo Manfredi’s Cupid Chastised (previously attributed to Caravaggio) and Manfredi’s relationship to Caravaggio’s style; and an exploration of conceptual artist Daniel Buren’s sculpture Up and Down, In and Out, Step by Step, created for the Art Institute.
