Sebastian Smee Presents the Docent Memorial Lecture
Spend the afternoon at the Wadsworth Atheneum with a lecture by Pulitzer Prize–winning author Sebastian Smee on his book Paris in Ruins: Love, War, and the Birth of Impressionism, followed by a book signing. Tied to the museum’s reinstalled Impressionist galleries, the talk offers a fresh look at the origins of modern art and invites a new way of seeing the works on view.
