Online lecture, from London and Il Palmerino
What happens when we pack our virtual suitcases for a journey back to the turn of the last century? Author and scholar Claudia Tobin’s lecture on Tuesday, February 23 takes listeners from Il Palmerino to Bloomsbury… where women painters, photographers, writers and patrons are at the forefront. See Vernon Lee, Virginia Woolf, Ottoline Morrell, Vanessa Bell like never before. If you missed the livestream of the event, you can still catch the lecture, via this link.

This lecture is part of the ‘Oltrarno Gaze’, a collaborative project developed by Associazione Culturale Il Palmerino APS and Advancing Women Artists, as part of ‘Firenze Insolita’. It is being carried out with a contribution from the Comune di Firenze, as part of a project to promote and enrich the city and its territory.
