While the image of Christ’s crucifixion is common in western artworks from the medieval and early Renaissance periods, interpreting these works can be complex. Join Clara Guzman in decoding several crucifixion scenes laden with symbolism. Guzman will also share how her research has been informed by her experience studying art history at Harvard and working as a student assistant here at the museums.

Meet Me at the Museums is a new series of talks given by our campus partners, lenders, and students. The series widens the circle of our gallery talk offerings, allowing for a richer diversity of viewpoints, surprising interdisciplinary connections and research, and unique perspectives about our collections and exhibitions.

Led by:
Clara Guzman ’24, Undergraduate Student Assistant, Division of European and American Art
