Virtual Student Guide Tour: The Blue Tour, with Adam Sella

Presented by Harvard Art Museums at Harvard Art Museums, Cambridge MA

Apr 14 2022
Virtual Student Guide Tour: The Blue Tour, with Adam Sella

Adam Sella will talk about Picasso’s painting Mother and Child (c. 1901) on his tour.

In this tour, Adam Sella will explore the color blue in three works of art.

In this virtual tour, Adam Sella ’22 explores the color blue in three works of art: Utagawa Hiroshige’s print Yamato Province: Yoshino, a Thousand Cherry Trees at One Glance, Pablo Picasso’s Mother and Child from the artist’s Blue Period, and Josef Albers’s painting Homage to the Square: Against Deep Blue. Taking our Forbes Pigment Collection as a springboard, the tour considers blue’s foundation in pigments and optics as well as its power to stir up associations and emotions.
