Preserving Legacy: Enhancing Conservation at Crawford Art Gallery (In-Person)
Spotlight on a national treasure
Members of the public are invited to attend a free talk during Heritage Week that focus on the conservation of a true national treasure, Edith Somerville's The Goose Girl (1888).
The Goose Girl is now the subject of conservation treatment while the doors of Crawford Art Gallery are closed for its major redevelopment. Supported by the Heritage Council through the Heritage Stewardship Fund 2025, this crucial work will ensure the historic painting’s future.
The public talks will shed new light on the painting, exploring its history and the steps being taken to care for it in Crawford Art Gallery’s new mobile conservation laboratory. The talk will have feature speakers: conservator Chiara Chillè, registrar Jean O’Donovan, and curator Michael Waldron.
This talk is free but registration is required via Eventbrite.
