Drop-in Collection Tour—The Reclining Women
The reclining nude, a familiar subject in museums around the world, has been used historically to reproduce conventional ideas of beauty and femininity. During Women’s History Month, join in conversations about works of art that redefine the portrayal of reclining women and celebrate depictions of vulnerability and rest.
Tours begin at the welcome desk in Sculpture Hall on a first-come, first-served basis.
