On Friday 27 September, the Yale Center for British Art in partnership with Compton Verney will host a symposium, A Puritan Picture: Vanity, Morality, and Race in Seventeenth-Century Britain. This symposium aims to increase understanding of Two Women Wearing Cosmetic Patches (ca. 1650), an unusual and significant work in the study of early modern race and gender, which emerged at auction in 2021.
