An exhibition of paintings – this example courtesy of the AGO
Toronto. … and visit the AGO! You may find the exhibition called, “MAKING HER MARK: A HISTORY OF WOMEN ARTISTS IN EUROPE, 1400-1800” of particular interest (on until July 1, 2024).
While viewing the paintings, think about the artists and their efforts to make each of these pre-photography paintings. In this era of smartphones, we rarely see such works of art as the paintings shown in this exhibition.
The AGO also has a photography section (in case photos are more to your liking). The late Dr Wilson was a member of the AGO and rented some interesting photos to decorate his home. The section was directed at one time by a generous and long time member of the PHSC, Maia-Mari Sutnik, and her successor Ms Sophie Hackett who also joined the PHSC.
Ms Sutnik has been a speaker on occasion and a gracious host when members visited the AGO photography section.
