    M. Victor Leventritt Seminar with Bettina Bergmann, Helene Phillips Herzig ’49 Professor of Art, Mount Holyoke College Victoria I, artist/designer

    Taking two- and three-dimensional actual and virtual models of Roman houses and villas as the starting point, this seminar addresses how different forms of reconstruction tell us not just about the object of reconstruction, but about the limits of our knowledge and evolving historical perspectives.

    Room 318. Free admission.
