New York, NY 10010
Alumna Ferry Foster (2010), Communications Assistant at Swann Auction Galleries, kindly invites Guggies to join this special event: a conversation with Marcus Mucha, the great-grandson of Alphonse Mucha and Nicholas D. Lowry. On view will be the upcoming auction, Alphonse Mucha & Masters of Art Nouveau: The Harry C. Meyerhoff Collection, the largest collection of works by the artist to come to market. The auction preview includes rare posters and original works of art from three major periods of Mucha’s life: his time in Prague, in Paris, and in New York in the late 19th through early 20th century. The collection sheds light on the Czech master’s process and personal life.
This event is free. Hors d'oeuvres and cocktails will be served.
Please RSVP here by January 20th.
We look forward to seeing you there!
