This drop-in tour examines the fascinating overlaps found in artworks, whether created in the ancient Mediterranean, during the European Renaissance, or in the modern era. “Everything Old Is New Again” explores artifacts within the Kelsey, likening them to more recent famous works of art found outside the museum’s walls. Works such as Marc Chagall’s I and the Village will be compared to the Djehutymose coffin, and we will discuss Kelsey’s naturalistic Fayum portrait in comparison to Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, to name a few. This tour will make about eight stops within the Kelsey, accompanied by large photographs of artwork outside the museum.
