About

In this preview event, Members will get a snapshot of the upcoming 'In focus: Canaletto' course led by Dr Matthew Morgan.   

The hour-long talk is the perfect opportunity for those who are curious about the Gallery’s online courses and, in this case, exploring the life and work of Venetian painter Canaletto. Dr Matthew Morgan will offer an overview of the course and what to expect in the two-hour intensive online programme.  

The course takes place on Thursday 12 June. More details can be found here.
