Additional information
While the image of Christ’s crucifixion is common in western artworks from the medieval and early Renaissance periods, interpreting these works can be complex. Join Clara Guzman in decoding several crucifixion scenes laden with symbolism. Guzman will also share how her research has been informed by her experience studying art history at Harvard and working as a student assistant here at the museums.
