Motherhood in Art (Hybrid), on Tuesday, May 5 at 4:30 PM EST at the Scarsdale Public Library

As both an artist and art historian, I’ve long been fascinated by how motherhood has been explored across time, not just as a role, but as a deeply human experience that reflects identity, devotion, strength, and connection. A beautiful example is Fra Filippo Lippi’s Mother and Child shown above.

Together, we’ll explore how artists across cultures and eras have interpreted this enduring theme, from sacred and symbolic works to more intimate and contemporary expressions.

Thank you to my daughter, Bonnie, for providing refreshments.
