    Barbara Frelinghuysen Israel, author, consultant and owner of Barbara Israel Garden Antiques, presents the Concord Museum’s 2010 Mary Lesneski Memorial Decorative Arts Lecture, “Adorning the American Landscape: Antique Garden Ornament from 1740 to 1940.” Israel founded Barbara Israel Garden Antiques in Katonah, New York in 1985, after a serendipitous purchase of a large collection of estate statuary led her down the garden antiques path. Twenty-five years and hundreds of exquisite objects later, Barbara Israel is recognized as an authority on the subject. In a sumptuously-illustrated lecture, she discusses the influence of European landscape traditions as well as American interpretations of garden ornament. Tea follows the lecture. Reservations only; please call 978-369-9763.
