It may be gray and snowy today, but I am fired up to see Kim de Beaumont's lecture on public spaces in 17th- and 18th-century Paris at 1:30 pm at the Women Club of Greenwichm 89 Maple Aveue. This lecture is sponsored by the Alliance Française de Greenwich
Dr. de Beaumont is an art historian who teaches at Hunter College and Pace College. You may know the exhibition she curated for the Frick Museum: Gabriel de Saint-Aubin, fall-winter 2007-8.
