Rare Gobelins tapestries from Paris go on view, first time since 1982


We have another opportunity to view rare 18th century pieces of history (art history!). The Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art is displaying four very rare Gobelin tapestries, The Jason Tapestries, through April 15, 2015.

The tapestries are not kept on display due to their size and their fragility.  The Atheneum is displaying them for a limited time in its Morgan Great Hall.
