Here is the blurb on the Clark Art Institute's upcoming exhibition (from their
web page at <http://www.clark.williams.edu/web5.htm>)  Those of you living in,
or planning to visit, the Northeast U.S. might want to mark your calendars
for a visit.  The rest of us may want to check back in September and see if
there's going to be an exhibition catalog for sale.

Maternal vs. Mercenary: Images of Breast-Feeding in Eighteenth-Century France :

September 12, 1998-January 3, 1999   Until the second half of the
eighteenth-century, aristocratic women in France often chose to employ wet
nurses to breast feed their children. This exhibition of paintings, prints,
and books will examine images of both maternal and mercenary breast feeding
and how they reflected current social discourse.
