The devil's in the details, especially when it comes to the intricate carvings that adorn these devotional objects and exquisitely tiny works of art. AGO Next members heard from Lisa Ellis, Conservator, Sculpture and Decorative Arts, and art photographers Craig Boyko and Ian Lefebvre on the latest discoveries on these enigmatic masterpieces.
