This looks like a really interesting exhibition and well worth checking out if you are in New York.
The Morgan Library and Museum presents a month-long exhibition of photographs by Missimo Listri of The Great Libraries of Europe.
The show coincides with the reopening of the Morgan's original 1906 library and includes 23 large format photographs of magnificent rooms as Michelangelo's Laurentian Library.

Somerset House - Dior Illustrated: René Gruau and the Line of Beauty
Until January 9, 2011
I have always been in awe of the work of Rene Gruau and I was lucky enough to meet him just before he died. Amazingly he was more interested in drawing monsters than fashion when I met him, which was quite bizarre.
This exhibition shows how "new" his work was at the time and features a lot of the work he did for Dior. The exhibition is well worth a visit for anyone interested in illustration.
