Michelangelo and Bernini: The Design and Decoration of the New St. Peter's Basilica, Part II

Margaret Kuntz, Professor of Art History and Chair of the Art History Department at Drew University, will present her second lecture of a series on the decoration of St. Peter’s Basilica.  Now at the final completion of construction, we will look at the first decorations for the interior and how they reflected the artistic goals of Pope Urban VII Barberini.
In addition, we will discover the role Gian Lorenzo Bernini played as lead architect and artistic director of the interior decorations, the tangible manifestation of Pope Urban’s legacy.  Please join us on Tuesday, October 26 from 1 to 2 pm.  It is requested that you register with the library to attend.  You may sign up online or call the library at 973-635-0603.

There is a fee of $10 for each lecture. To pay online, click here. You may also pay in person via cash, check, or credit card.
If you would like to attend but are unable to pay, please send an email to events@chathamlibrary.org and we will waive the fee.
