Nasher Reads: Strapless by Deborah Davis
Sponsor(s): Nasher Museum of Art
Join museum staff for group discussions of Strapless by Deborah Davis, a story of art and celebrity that centers around the John Singer Sargent portrait of Virginie Gautreau, a New Orleans native who became a 19th-Century "it girl" of Paris. The conversation will take place in The Collection Galleries and include a discussion of the portrait Mrs. John Camfield Tomlinson, nee Dora Grant (1904), by John Singer Sargent.
Visitors are encouraged to read the book prior to discussions. Books are available for purchase in the Nasher Museum Store.
