Sofie Frauenhofer ’22, Student Guide

This tour will take visitors through the human life cycle, examining objects surrounding birth, infancy, marriage, and death from 2nd-century BCE Italy to 19th-century Massachusetts. Though they come from different cultures, these objects were all special to somebody; they carry a piece of that person and their life with them and now touch our own lives in the present.
