Description
C. D. Dickerson is associate curator of European art at the Kimbell Art Museum.
The focus of Dr. Dickerson’s lecture will be one of the Kimbell’s more recent acquisitions, the “Borromeo Madonna and Child.” This terracotta relief, traditionally attributed to the Florentine sculptor Donatello, is one of the most important works of Renaissance sculpture to come to light in recent decades. Dr. Dickerson will discuss its importance and address the issue of attribution, as well as situate the work in its art-historical context.
