Wednesday 31st March at 2pm
Looking at art is a wonderful way in which to focus the mind and lift the spirits, so would you like to spend a little time with me each week considering works of art? If so, please join me on Zoom, when I am giving a series of Gallery Talks called ‘My Favourite Paintings' to concentrate your thoughts on Art History for an hour.
Each talk is on one work of art and I'll share insights, discussing aspects such as the subject matter, historical and social context of the painting, the life of the artist and the techniques and materials they empIoyed. I welcome questions in the chat box and attempt to answer as many as possible.
The painting that I'll be discussing is 'Flowers in a Vase' (c.1685) by Rachel Ruysch, in the National Gallery, London.
If you would like to join the next talk of the 'My Favourite Paintings' series, on Wednesday 31st March at 2pm, please message me via the Contact form, and I'll send you the payment details and, on receipt of payment, the Zoom meeting link. The fee for each talk is £10.
I very much look forward to talking to you about Rachel Ruysch's 'Flowers in a Vase' on Wednesday afternoon.
After this talk, I'll be taking a two week Easter break and resuming the weekly My Favourite Paintings series on Wednesday 21st April at 2pm.
