On this tour, Jade Xiao ’27 will explore how art exists both within reality and makes its own realities. The works on the tour will be French artist Nicolas Régnier’s Self-Portrait with an Easel (c. 1620–c. 1625), Composite Portrait of a Man (Roman Egypt, early 2nd century CE), and the painting Proun 12E (1923) by El Lissitzky.
Spotlight Tours offer a chance to explore the collections of the Harvard Art Museums through the eyes of a Harvard student. Free and open to the public, these tours start outside the museum shop on Saturdays and Sundays at 11am and 2pm. Drop in and join the conversation! And find out what the Student Guides are up to anytime on Instagram @harvardarthappens.
Please check in with museum staff at the Visitor Services desk in the Calderwood Courtyard to request to join the tour. Space is limited, and tours are available on a first-come, first-served basis; no registration is required.
