Description
Each event in our Art in Focus series offers an opportunity for an hour of close looking and informal discussion around a single work of art, led by Curator of Education Michelle DiMarzo.
On December 14, we'll be looking together at this portrait of an unidentified youth by the Swedish-Dutch painter Martin van Meytens II, who became a fixture at the imperial court in Vienna after 1730, painting many members of the aristocratic elite.
Join us for the opportunity to engage deeply with this work of art in a relaxed atmosphere. Reserve your seat now!
