Mark is the organist at 2nd. Parish Church in Hingham, and a long time friend. I perform every Christmas Eve at his church, doing preludes and postludes with Mark's wonderful accompaniment on a beautiful tracker pipe organ.
And he is a member of the MFA so we have taken to going on occasion, and he saw for the first time the "Casanova" exhibit.
So, a few photos from our visit.

I haven't visited the Egyptian wing in a long time, and had forgotten the magic
of the art of 4000 years ago.
