"The Triumph of Wisdom and Fortitude: Rubens's St. Catherine"
A gallery talk by Susan Wegner in honor of Katy Kline, Director of the Bowdoin College Museum of Art.
The talk will highlight recent gifts to the Bowdoin College Museum of Art, given in honor of Katy Kline, its Director. The talk will cover some of the superb Baroque and 18th-century works given as gifts to the museum during its recent closure for renovation and during its first year of re-opening. Starting with Peter Paul Rubens's imposing print of St. Catherine of Alexandria, the talk will also touch on Rembrandt's intimate etching, The Goldsmith (1655), and the robust 18th-century French painting of St. Mark the Evangelist.
Free and open to the public.
4:00 pm
Halford Gallery in the Bowdoin College Museum of Art
