Join Prof. Tripp Evans, author of The Importance of Being Furnished: Four Bachelors at Home (Rowman and Littlefield, 2024), for a spirited dive into the aesthetic and romantic worlds of Charles Hammond Gibson and his contemporaries. This program will also provide a preview of the exhibition of the same title, opening June 20, sponsored by Historic New England at the Eustis Estate (Milton MA).
