Mary Beard, one of Britain's best-known Classicists, inaugurates the Gardner's new series, The Larger Conversation, which connects the Museum's collections and exhibitions to important social issues of our time. Focusing on Botticelli's Story of Lucretia, a work from the Museum's collection and a spotlight of our special exhibition, the lecture will cover the reception of Lucretia's disturbing story, from ancient Roman times to our own.
SPEAKER:
Mary Beard, Professor of Classics, Newnham College, Cambridge, author of the best-sellers Women & Power and SPQR.
