Presented by The Toronto Renaissance and Reformation Colloquium
When the Art Gallery of Ontario acquired their Portrait of a Woman Holding an Orange Blossom in 2020, very little was known about this work. This talk will trace years of research implicating the history of race, of dress, of botany, of colonization, of genealogy, and of art, to present a hypo–thesis about the artist, sitter, year of making, and original location of the painting.
ADAM HARRIS LEVINE is Associate Curator of European Art at the Art Gallery of Ontario, where he has worked since 2020. He has degrees from McGill University, the Courtauld Institute of Art, and Columbia University.
