Curator Tour for Women's History Month at the Albany Institute
Join Curator Diane Shewchuk for a special tour for Women's History Month of the current exhibition: "Portrait Pairings". The tour is free with museum admission, no registration required.
Portrait Pairings is an exhibition of portraits juxtaposed with related objects drawn exclusively from Albany Institute of History & Art's permanent collection, showcasing the depth and diversity of the museum’s holdings.
What objects connect to a nineteenth-century cast iron stove of George Washington or Gilbert Charles Stuart’s 1795 portrait of Stephen Van Rensselaer III? What painting corresponds to a grey blue visiting dress by couturier Charles Frederick Worth? Through the lens of portraiture, discover the delightful and unexpected pairings of dozens of objects representing collection areas including textiles and costume, jewelry, ceramics, maps, ephemera, drawings, and paintings.
Portrait Pairings is on view through July 20, 2025.
