 What do you think about when you admire the works of classical art? Do you peer at the objects that are depicted on them? Are you trying to understand why they are there and what they mean? The language of symbol and allegory, open for its time, is often a mystery for a modern person or simply remains outside the brackets. Let's try to remove these "brackets" and take a closer look at the details of old paintings. The old masters knew a lot about this! On a thematic tour, we:  Let's try to plunge into the past and “read” some of the masterpieces of the museum collection;  let's talk about how the symbol changed from the Middle Ages to the Baroque;  we will discuss how the same subject could have two opposite meanings and why;  find out what is the difference between a symbol and an allegory, what is hidden behind funny scenes of taverns and partying and what Dutch still lifes are eaten with. Thematic tour of the exposition "Hidden Meanings of Pictures"  The author of the excursion and the detective of meanings, a researcher of the museum @ Anastasia Frolkova  #WEartMuseum (Pushkinskaya, 9)  October 25 (Sunday) ⏳ 12:00 ⏳ Ticket 100 UAH (at the ticket office of the museum) ❗ Due to anti-epidemiological measures, we will be able to accept no more than 10 people!
