Please join us for the April Artful Dodger series beginning on Wednesday, April 2nd at 12:00 in the Main Galleries of the Frances Lehman Loeb Art Center with a discussion by Lucy Johnson, Professor of Anthropology, entitled, ?These Beautifully Rendered Tools Can't Only Be Allegorical!"As a student of technology, Lucy chose to discuss, Atlas Maintaining the Balance of the World by Felice Boscarati due to its careful depictions of tools in the painting. This is the first of a series of 4 allegorical paintings by Felice Boscarati (1721-1807); Vassar also has the 4th, as well as engravings of the whole series by Cristoforo dall'Acqua.
