Art Study Center Seminar: Versos and Marks—Exploring the Past of Paintings

Join curatorial assistant Casey Monahan on Friday, Dec. 8 to explore how investigating the verso (reverse side) of a painting can sometimes help construct the history and provenance of a work. Monahan will share how details such as labels, numbers and other elements that are normally “unseen” are essential for curators as they research and catalogue works in the collections. Admission is free, but registration is required. Please arrive 15 minutes before the start of the program to allow sufficient time to sign in at the Art Study Center reception desk (Level 4), and be prepared to present a photo ID. All coats and bags must be placed in a locker prior to entering the study room.
