On this tour, Varya Lyapneva ’26 will explore how artists create identities for themselves and their subjects—and the limits of their control. She will look at three works: Victor Grippo’s Analogia I (1970–71), Théodore Chassériau’s Arab Horsemen Carrying Away Their Dead (1850), and Max Beckmann’s Self-Portrait in Tuxedo (1927).


Spotlight Tours offer a chance to explore the collections of the Harvard Art Museums through the eyes of a Harvard student. Free and open to the public, these tours start outside the museum shop on Saturdays and Sundays at 11am and 2pm. Drop in and join the conversation! And find out what the Student Guides are up to anytime on Instagram @harvardarthappens.


Please check in with museum staff at the Visitor Services desk in the Calderwood Courtyard to request to join the tour. Tours are limited to 18 people and are available on a first-come, first-served basis; no registration is required.
