Seminar Description
What does it mean when a skull is included in a still life? Why is Daphne often depicted as sprouting tree branches for arms? In this one-day seminar, we will journey into the complex web of symbolic and allegorical references in the art of the Old Masters in order to better understand painting in the period and its development in subsequent centuries.
One session. E - $85, L - $93.5
