Science Lecture. Talismans and Tinctures
This event is no longer on sale.
Lecture by Arianne Kolb. Light refreshments precede the lecture, which begins at 7:00 pm. Jan Brueghel the Elder’s (1568-1625) paradise landscapes and detailed paintings of animals and plants are characteristic of the confluence of art, science, and religion during the 16th and 17th century. Multidisciplinary analysis of how Brueghel’s works were produced reveals parallels between the artistic representation of nature and developments in natural-historical inquiry as well as scientific inventions, including the microscope.
