SUMMARY:Still Life with Cheeses\, Almonds and Pretzels - Famous Paintings and their Hidden Histories–Autumn 2025
DESCRIPTION:Artist and art teacher  ine Andrews returns with another series of lectures on Famous Paintings and their Hidden Histories. In each lecture\,  ine will focus on a particular painting to recount its history\, as well as that of the artist and their story.\n\nThe lectures can be attended as a series\, but are also designed as standalone talks\, which can be attended individually.\n\nWeek 3: Still Life with Cheeses\, Almonds and Pretzels\n\nClara Peeters 1615\n\nThe Mauritshuis the Hague\n\nIn 2012\, the Mauritshuis in The Hague managed to acquire a particularly appealing painting by Clara Peeters.\n\nIn Still Life with Cheeses\, Almonds and Pretzels\, Peeters captures the different ages of the cheeses and reflections in glass and metal. The handle of a finely crafted silver knife is directed towards the viewer as if inviting them to carve into the cheese but Peeters uses it also to sign her name in capitals on the side of the elaborately decorated handle.\n\nThere is also another astonishing detail. A minute self-portrait in a white cap is reflected in the pewter lid of a ceramic jug behind the cheeses. The portrait proclaims the worthiness not only of being a painter\, but of being a woman painter.\n\nWe know little about the life of Clara Peeters\, but there are some forty known paintings by this extraordinary skilled artist who had such great influence on the painters of the Northern Netherlands.\n\n\n1. Tues 28 October\n\nPortrait of Hugh Lane by John Singer Sargent   Dublin City Gallery\, The Hugh Lane Dublin\n\n2. Tues 4 November\n\nThe Weeping Woman by Pablo Picasso   Tate Gallery London\n\n3.
