The Athenaeum of Philadelphia is pleased to announce the next in its gallery lecture series, Exploring the Athenaeum: Tips of the Iceberg, on July 2, 2014 from 12:00 1:00 pm at the Athenaeum. This month's lecture will be led by Bruce Laverty, the Gladys Brooks Curator of Architecture at the Athenaeum, who will provide a lively and informative discussion about Benjamin Linfoot's drawing of Mrs. A.W. Baird's residence, Bardwold, in Merion, P.R.R. Dated 1886, the Linfoot drawing features a deft rendering of an unidentified sitting room in Bardwold. The Linfoot drawing (gift of Benjamin S. Linfoot, 1983) is part of the Athenaeum's permanent collection.
