New journal -- the Journal of Icon Studies

The Museum of Russian Icons in Clinton, Massachusetts, houses the largest collection of Russian icons in the United States. In conformity to its mission "to enhance relations between Russia and the United States through the medium of art, especially Russian icons" the Museum is pleased to announce the dedication of a section of its website for the publication of peer-reviewed research papers in its Scholars' Forum.

We are soliciting original papers in all areas of the study of icons, including inter-disciplinary and comparative studies, and not limited just to icons from Russia. Topics can be historical, linguistic, iconographic, regional, etc.

In addition to scholarly research papers, we are also soliciting book reviews, exhibition reviews, and conference announcements; each has its own subsite.

Directions for all submissions are on the website,
