Caricature Collectors in Conversation

Time: 
Thursday, November 16, 2023 - 3:00pm to 5:30pm
Location: 
Sterling Memorial Library, International Room
120 High Street
New Haven, CT 06511
Description: 

Please join us for a panel of distinguished private collectors and print curators for lively conversation with about their interests, expertise, and adventures in building their collections of eighteenth and early nineteenth-century British caricature and satiric prints. They will share stories of discovery and the pursuit of coveted acquisitions and we will invite their thoughts on the role of appreciation, connoisseurship, and learning that grows along with the collection and the value that they find in engagement with fellow collectors and curators, and in research at library and museum print rooms.

This program is free and open to the public.
