I always commenced the procession through a dark, narrow hallway, detouring on a rightward loop through the Egyptian funerary collection, and then rejoining the narrow passage to another dark room with Greek vases, where I would check on red-figured Aktaion and on bilingual Achilles and Ajax playing board games before I angled into an almost hidden corner room with an Etruscan couple in tufa calmly laying at rest in a cool, quiet setting. I still recall vividly the change in temperature, humidity, even the scent of the air as I opened each door to each successive gallery. Some years later, the company for which my father worked was commissioned by the MFA to install new doors within most of its galleries. With some acknowledged irony, my brother and I have since made holiday visits to the MFA during which we admire the glass doors, especially those that open smoothly almost as if a motor were propelling us into a world of ancient art; we also playfully grimace at those that slow our passage with a squeak or hinder our view with a fingerprinted film. Of course, my father’s art was different from that of the sculptors, painters, weavers, and many others who are responsible for so much of what gives the MFA its true raison d’être. Yet, this unusual connection to the museum helps me appreciate the many ways that modern hands bear on our way of experiencing ancient art. They construct the doors which help preserve and provide access to the ancient past. Sometimes the passage or view through those doors is clear; sometimes it takes an extra umph or squint.","PeriodicalId":147483,"journal":{"name":"Arion: A Journal of the Humanities and the Classics","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129856362","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I also remember the physical pleasure somewhat later of scrawling on paper with crayons. I would scribble wherever and whenever I could. When I was in college and later in graduate school, I would entertain my friends by scribbling on paper napkins. Ever the art historian, I would later come to call such confections “Napkin Art.” None of my scribbling has found its way into the Museum of Modern Art. At least not yet! The word scribbling (scarabocchio in Italian) has many connotations. It can refer to doodles and doodling. It can be used interchangeably with such words as drawing or sketching. It can refer to what in Italian is called gofferia or goffezza—that which is clumsy or gauche, raw, awkward, or crude. Careless or sloppy in execution, it stands in opposition to the ideal to which the art historian Giorgio Vasari referred as bella maniera, the beautiful style that is the perfection of art. The notion of scribbling leads one back to one of the most amusing of all the stories in Boccaccio’s Decameron, the sixth story told on the sixth day, a tale which demonstrates that the Baronci were the oldest, most noble family not just in Florence but in the whole wide world. It is a novella that has everything to do with scribbling. According to Boccaccio’s tale, when God created the Baronci, he was still learning how to draw and paint, whereas he fashioned the","PeriodicalId":147483,"journal":{"name":"Arion: A Journal of the Humanities and the Classics","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134434301","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
