Join museum and gallery experts, including curators, conservators, and scholars, for a free, online deep dive into a selection of objects in the University of Reading’s Art Collection. In each talk, we will take a closer look at a specific work of art and hear new insights and untold stories from our specialist speakers. You’ll also have the opportunity to ask questions.

In this talk, Dr Rebecca Birrell (Leverhulme Early Career Fellow at St Andrews University, and former Curator of Paintings at the Fitzwilliam Museum, University of Cambridge) will kick us off talking about ‘Gwen John’s Nudes’.

Grab a glass of wine or a cup of tea, and don’t miss this unique opportunity to get a closer look at the art world from the comfort of your own home.
