Notes About this Online Exhibition

PLEASE NOTE:This is an online version of an exhibition of medically-related art which was displayed in the main lobby of the National Library of Medicine. It has been supplemented by additional work and commentary from the artist. The images as displayed to the user may not accurately reflect the colors and subtle detail of the original works, due to the limited resolution of the devices on which the images will be displayed, as well as technical limitations such as differences between gamma values for different computer video monitors. Please note that the images displayed here are subject to copyright. Multimedia hypertext preparation by Elizabeth Tunis and R. P. C. Rodgers, M.D.

May Lesser has since had many successful public displays of her works.
