Event description: 

Dr. Kanter will take us to the medieval galleries of YUAG where he will offer us a special viewing of some thirteenth and fourteenth century paintings that in many ways parallel the innovations embraced by Dante and his contemporaries in literature. Dr. Kanter will also show us a painting by Fra Angelico, who painted in reaction to Augustine’s City of God and the writings of Thomas Aquinas.
