Northern Lights & Luminaries: From Van Eyck to Rembrandt with Fiona Garland

October 6, 2020 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm

|Recurring Event (See all)

An event every week that begins at 11:00 am on Tuesday, repeating until October 27, 2020

$150 – $160

When we think of the art of Northern Europe we tend to think of the Old Masters like Rembrandt and Rubens. But upon whose shoulders did these artists stand? Who were their influences and how did they achieve such virtuosity of paint?

 

They owe much of their brilliance to the Renaissance that took place in modern day Belgium and the Netherlands 200 years before they were born. Over the course of four lectures we will come to know the genius found in the art of Northern Europe. The first two lectures will be dedicated to early influences like Jan Van Eyck and Albrecht Durer and the second two lectures will focus on Peter Paul Rubens and Rembrandt van Rijn.

 

Please note: there will be four ONLINE lectures on successive Tuesdays at 11:00 am: October 6, 13, 20, and 27; the ticket covers all four events.

 

Tickets are $160 for non-members and $150 for members.
