An art object asks us to reply to it: it returns our gaze, and it compels action and reaction from us. In this interactive workshop, we will discover that a slower, closer look at Cranach's complex mythographic portrait of the well-known figures of Venus and Amor will expose an extraordinary range of subjects. We will examine and engage these subjects together through a guided program of prompts, writing our responses to Cranach's work. Presented by Sarah M. Anderson, lecturer in English, the Medieval Studies Program, and the Freshman Seminar Program, Princeton University.
