Jean-Etienne Liotard
Join the curator of 'Jean-Etienne Liotard' for a private tour and first view of the exhibition.
Born at the dawning of the 18th century, Swiss artist Jean-Etienne Liotard was one of the most accomplished portraitists of his age. He travelled widely, from London to the Orient, applying his unflinching powers of observation to create beautifully crafted portraits, the majority in pastel chalks on parchment. The world that his art shows us is a fascinating one: highly cosmopolitan and increasingly engaged in the cultural interchange between the Near East and Western Europe.
Free, but please RSVP.
