This tour will explore depictions of the female form, considering what elements of a woman’s life are represented in the museum space, how these pieces work to create a “female legacy,” and what important elements are left out. We will think together about the artistic decisions made by the artists, exploring how they inform and challenge larger societal understandings of youth and femininity.
