Really?  I Have a few shots of very simple railings outside that are nice
and could be his.  Also some nice exterior lighting.  But there was a set of
red doors with hinges (not the ones in the first Pitt Cathedral of Learning
folder) that I thought were just plasma cut.  I wish I had more time.  I
didn't even try to go in the chapel.  It was all so amazing.

I saw an old post of yours about that.  I'm really interested in Arts &
Crafts and Art Noveau metalwork.  I haven't had much luck finding examples
of it though.  If you find any pictures of that gate you mention, please
post it.
