I couldn't agree more both about seeing as much good stuff as you can, and the time period being really interesting.
If you ever find yourself in Toronto, be sure to check out a little side room in the Art Gallery of Ontario that houses the Thompson (or rather, a portion of) collection of medieval boxwood and ivory carvings.
There is simply some amazing work there, particularly when you consider the working conditions of the day. If you're into the over-hyped concept of patina, nothing beats old boxwood and ivory.
take care and keep up the good work.
