Curious about works of art that aren’t always included on a BMA tour? Take a DeTour with us on select Sundays, where we’ll spend 30 minutes focusing on a work of art that is off the beaten path.
This Sunday, drop by and join BMA Teaching Fellow Kiera Poole as they facilitate a discussion on The Liberation of St. Peter by Giovanni Lanfranco in the Italian galleries.
Meet Kiera in the Main Lobby on the First Floor at 1:00 pm.
