The Eternal Object of Desire: Female Muses, from the Renaissance to the Present
Aneta Georgievska-Shine, professor of art history, University of Maryland
Reception 10:30 - 11:00 am
Portraits of women are a category of their own. Though a large majority were "official" in nature, many others carry very personal stories within themselves. In this lecture, we provide a historical overview of the various perspectives of artists on their female muses and objects of desire.
