Spotlight Tour: Food for Thought, with Hannah Gadway ’25

On this tour, Hannah Gadway ’25 will explore food-inspired works of art from the past to reflect on our attitudes about food today. Among the works discussed will be a gourd-shaped ewer made in Korea in the 12th century, The Breakfast Table (1883–84), an oil painting made in Paris by John Singer Sargent, and Pear Tree (1903), an oil painting made in Austria by Gustav Klimt.

Free and open to the public, these tours start outside the museum shop on Saturdays and Sundays at 11am and 2pm. Drop in and join the conversation! And find out what the Student Guides are up to anytime on Instagram @harvardarthappens.
