Art Study Center Seminar: Blue Women: The History and Practice of Drawing Dutch Female Nudes from Life

Join curatorial fellow Talitha Maria G. Schepers for an interactive close-looking session on Friday, May 19 that explores the exceptional and innovative circumstances under which 17th-century Dutch artists drew female nudes from life, the conventions they broke while doing so and their reason for using blue paper. This seminar is inspired by a recent installation of Dutch drawings and prints in the 17th-century Dutch and Flemish art gallery (2300). This talk will be led by Talitha Maria G. Schepers, Stanley H. Durwood Foundation Curatorial Fellow in the division of European and American art. Registration is required.
