Angelica Kauffman (1741–1807) was an Austrian-Swiss artist who began her career in Italy, where her clients included British tourists who encouraged the young painter to pursue her profession in England. Over the 15 years she worked in London, Kauffman achieved fame and fortune and returned to Italy as an international celebrity. This lecture celebrates a portrait recently acquired by the Museum. Wendy Wassyng Roworth will discuss Kauffman’s life and work in England as a fashionable painter and member of the Royal Academy of Arts, a rare distinction for a woman, and how the artist used her talents to her advantage.

This virtual program will take place via Zoom and will include opportunities for participants to ask questions with the Q&A feature. Attendees’ mics and cameras will not be activated.

Attendees must register to receive the Zoom link. Capacity for the live program is limited.

This program is supported by the Mary Strauss Women in the Arts Endowment.

PLACES features paintings, drawings, and photographs depicting spaces real or imagined. Specific places that have been observed or envisioned never cease to attract attention either as remembrances of past experience or as promises of future adventure. As we endure the isolation associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, the need for space that might be safe or thought provoking becomes a necessity.

PLACES is curated by Nancy Newman Rice.
