Scentscapes: Smelling belle époque paintings

If Degas’s 'After the Bath, Woman drying herself' was a perfume, what would it be? In this multisensory tour we experience French Impressionist and Symbolist paintings through our sense of smell. Can the subject matter, colour, composition, and brushwork of a painting be mirrored in a modern or historic fragrance? And how can scents help us to explore themes such as beauty, sexuality, and metropolitan life? Join perfume connoisseur Odette Toilette and Gallery educator Christina Bradstreet to both see and sniff the art of the belle époque. Friday Lates socials Start your weekend here.
