Art at Noon | William Trost Richards' Watercolors and Gift Giving
Advertisement
Join PAFA curator Dr. Lea C. Stephenson and artist and PAFA instructor Douglas Martenson for a conversation about William Trost Richards’ jewel-like watercolor landscapes of Rhode Island.
Created for Richards’ patron and friend George Whitney, the works offer a window into artist-patron relationships and Richards’ important role in the American watercolor movement. Stephenson and Martenson will share their perspectives as a curator and artist while exploring how watercolor allowed artists to capture natural details and work outdoors.
Presented in conjunction with One After Another: Series and Studies.
