The Frick Collection, NYC will be hosting a rare masterpiece through Feb. 4 loaned from Vienna’s Kunsthistorisches Museum: Giorgione’s “Three Philosophers.”
The painting will reunite with the Frick’s own “St. Francis in the Desert” by Giovanni Bellini, two paintings once owned by the Venetian merchant Taddeo Contarini and displayed for many decades in his Venetian palazzo.
Professor Thomas Germano will present a visual lecture discussing the two great Venetian Renaissance artists, their patron Taddeo Contarini, and his role in their two works.
The Lecture is on Wednesday, Jan. 10 at the Great Neck Library, 159 Bayview Avenue, Great Neck, at 2:00 p.m. No registration is required and open to all Adults. For more information, please contact Great Neck Library at (516) 466-8055 or email adultprogramming@greatnecklibrary.org.
