Walking Tour: Henry James and American Painting and Afternoon Tea at the Morgan Library 

ID:5011
Henry James’s perceptiveness about American and British upper- and middle-class social and artistic life was unmatched by any other writer of his generation.  Evoking the colors and textures, the shapes and tastes, and the blend of physical and psychological impressions of the turn of the century, his fiction reflects a painterly sensibility deeply rooted in a life-long, often passionate, relationship with the visual arts. Henry James and American Painting (running June 9 through September 10, 2017) is the first museum exhibition to explore the fascinating intersection between James’s friendships with expatriate American artists, such as John La Farge, John Singer Sargent, and James McNeill Whistler, and his literary work.  Join us for the docent-led tour only ($50), or add an afternoon tea ($75).  

Schedule : Weekly - Wed 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM; starting 7/12/2017, ending 7/12/2017
