Hello all! Does anyone know of any connoisseurship workshops or courses offered to non-graduate students besides the Winterthur January course? (it's a bit late to get into that one this year) What I really want to learn is how to distinguish styles of objects and their place of origin by looking at the object itself. How, for example, does one tell the difference between a chair made in Boston in the 18th century vs. one made in Philadelphia during the same time period? Any help would be, of course, much appreciated. Chris. Christine Mouw Assistant Curator Herbert Hoover Presidential Library-Museum West Branch, Iowa 52358 [log in to unmask]
