#tbt - To when @moonshinesonata & I visited our alma mater earlier this month. Years have passed, lives are being lived and though we’ve both had different stories behind these gates, on these grounds, this is where we came from and we’ll never forget that.

COME AND ATTEND the American Decorative Arts Forum of Northern California (http://www.adafca.org) for their Saturday, May 6, 2017 DOUBLE Lectures by the renowned Carrie Rebora Barratt, Curator Emerita and Deputy Director for Collections and Administration, Metropolitan Museum of Art. 1:00 p.m. Lecture: "Deborah Lyde Brinley: Goddess in Colonial Boston and Margaret Kemble Gage: Sultana of the American Revolution" 2:45 p.m. Lecture: Queen Victoria: English Inspiration From Across the Pond and Susan Walker Morse: Clio in the Communication Age Gould Theater, Palace of the Legion of Honor, Lincoln Park, San Francisco Admission: Free to ADAF members, $20 to non-members. Museum admission required. Dr. Barratt examines, in two beautifully illustrated lectures, 18th and 19th century portraits of exceptional women. She will discuss the artistic convention of creating both a likeness and an astute depiction of the sitters of a particular time and place. Thomas Sully’s ingenious and unorthodox state portrait of 18-year-old Queen Victoria emphasizes both her femininity and her strength. The other three portraits convey beautiful imagery for posterity and hints of their sitters’ remarkable lives. IMAGES: 1. Thomas Sully (1783-1872). Queen Victoria, 1838. Oil on canvas (94 x 58 in.)
