Two-Point Perspective Gallery Talk

Anna Knaap, Theodore Rousseau Postdoctoral Fellow, Department of Paintings, Sculpture & Decorative Arts, Harvard Art Museum/Fogg Museum
Carmen Arnold-Biucchi, Damarete Curator of Ancient Coins, Harvard Art Museum/Arthur M. Sackler Museum, and lecturer on classics, Harvard University

This talk will consider the images on display in the installation Rubens and the Baroque Festival, with special emphasis on the antiquarian and numismatic sources of Rubens’s design. Rubens and the Baroque Festival, a temporary installation, is on view March 19–August 29, 2010 at the Harvard Art Museum/Arthur M. Sackler Museum.

This popular series considers objects from more than one point of view. The informal talks, many of them by Harvard Art Museum curators, conservators, and educators and Harvard University faculty members, are designed to stimulate thinking about works of art and encourage participants to explore their own ways of seeing.

Free with the price of admission. Open to the public.
Gallery talks are informal and include discussion. Limited to 25 participants; please arrive early.
