Love the title of this lecture at the Clark. Sounds like a worthwhile peek into the life of Tudor England. An interesting blend of both high and low morals. Our current monarchy has got nothing on these guys.
To celebrate the release of a film adaptation of the novel, “The Other Boleyn Girl” by Philippa Gregory, Michael Cassin, director of the Clark’s Center for Education in the Visual Arts, will look at the art of Tudor England. The court of Henry VIII was a place of intrigue, gossip, and scandal. But it was also a center of intellectual debate and high culture and a place where characters like Anne Boleyn and Sir Thomas Moore experienced spectacular good fortune and devastating falls from favor. Cassin will discuss paintings by artists such as Hans Holbein and Nicholas Hilliard produced during this exciting period of British history.
