The Rosalinde and Arthur Gilbert Annual Lecture (Oct 25 Livestream) photo
Dr Barbara Jatta was appointed in 2017 by late Pope Francis to look after the stunning collections of the Vatican Museums. Established in 1506, it includes the most canonical work of Western European art - The Sistine Chapel - as well as some iconic sculptures, paintings, maps, silver, micromosaics and more. Welcoming 6.8 million people, it is the second most visited art museum in the world after the Louvre. During this lecture, Dr Jatta will focus specifically on how she will bring her fresh vision and ambition to this historic institution. 

This talk will be streamed on zoom and all ticketholders will receive a link to view the morning of the talk. It will also be recorded for those not able to join live.
