Into the Courtyard: Conserving Medusa
With Jess Chloros
Thursday, February 04, 12 pm
Step into the Courtyard and take a closer look at the ancient Roman Medusa Mosaic with Jess Chloros, the Objects Conservator at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum. Jess will take us behind-the-scenes of the history of the mosaic, starting with its discovery and subsequent installation, and finishing with a detailed look at the past treatment of this delicate piece of art and what's in store for its future. Jess will hold a Q&A to answer all of your remaining questions about the Medusa Mosaic.
