Event Details
Join us on Zoom for a virtual tour of the exhibition Paper, Color, Line: European Master Drawings from the Wadsworth Atheneum in Hartford. The exhibition (on view through April 27) features drawings by renowned artists from the Renaissance to the Modern era. Organized along thematic lines, Paper, Color, Line offers a rich overview of 500 years of draftsmanship in Europe. The variety of schools, techniques, and uses makes for a lively display. While the exhibition explores broader topics such as artistic education, technical innovation, and the art market, it is centered on arresting works that convey the universal appeal of drawings as one of the most revealing expressions of the creative process. This docent-led virtual presentation offers a unique survey of drawings as one of the most revealing expressions of the creative process.
