Topics

The Arts

From church decoration to domestic objects, Medieval and Renaissance art is filled with figures and stories meant to teach viewers how to understand the world and how to act within it. These works might lead you through a meditative exercise, teach you how to discern right from wrong, or simply tell you how to use them. Join Meredith Fluke, program manager for the Center for Netherlandish Art in a tour of instructive objects from the MFA’s rich collections of European art.
