Today marks 36 years since the #IsabellaStewartGardner Museum robbery. This has become something of a side obsession for me; not one of the stolen pieces has been recovered and I would love to see all of them back where they belong. #Art #theft

On September 14, 1922, John Singer Sargent painted his second (and last) portrait of #IsabellaStewartGardner (1840-1924).
Happy Birthday, MRS GARDNER IN WHITE!

A great source of pride for Isabella Stewart Gardner was the Botticelli she acquired in 1894. It was painted for palacial decoration in connection with a wedding, thus Gardner displayed a wedding chest beneath it.

I fell in love with Bunkers work while at the #IsabellaStewartGardner museum. ISG befriended so many artists of the day, and Bunker was something special bringing French impressionist vibes to the US during somewhat of a renaissance. This piece is on display at MFA Boston. #art #arthistory #MFA

#IsabellaStewartGardner did a lot for his career

I’m feeling nostalgic already. #currentread #amreading #IsabellaStewartGardner

Something I want to know so badly but I cannot find any information on is this amphora, laying in the ground cover in the courtyard of the Isabella Stewart Gardner museum. Please someone tell me why it’s there #art #arthistory #gallery #sculpure #curation #collection #amphora #IsabellaStewartGardner

These frames are still waiting for their masterpieces to be returned.
Missing since March 18 1990, thirteen pieces were stolen from the Isabella Stewart Gardner museum.
This frame once held a Rembrandt. Hopefully it will again soon. #art #arthistory #theft #heist #gallery #IsabellaStewartGardner

Some would argue this is a foot. I don’t think it’s any more than nine inches tbh. #art #sculpture #IsabellaStewartGardner

The photo that inspired our next episode: a brief history of LACE! Our listener Emily wrote in to share this pic from the incredible collection at the Isabella Stewart Gardner museum. Have you been there? #lace #textilehistory #podcast #isabellastewartgardner #gardnermuseum

“She would later dread long crossings, often getting horribly seasick…. she would sequester herself in her cabin…close the blinds, and consume champagne and biscuits…” #IsabellaStewartGardner crossing the #AtlanticOcean as described by biographer Natalie Dykstra. #ChampagneAndBiscuits

I love a good art heist book. What’s your favorite?

A colorful map laid out on the floor, viewed from above, representing different urban zones in East Cambridge. The map is made of textile pieces in various colors, each color representing a different type of land use such as residential or commercial.

A wide shot of a grand library reading room filled with people working at wooden desks under green-shaded lamps. The room features a high arched ceiling adorned with intricate details and large windows, creating a well-lit and studious atmosphere.

A woman with shoulder-length brown hair and blue highlights stands in an art gallery, playfully giving a thumbs down gesture. She wears sunglasses pushed up on her head, a gray coat, and a teal scarf. Behind her are framed pieces of historical documents.

An interior view of a large atrium with a high glass ceiling in a classical building. The space is filled with lush green plants, sculptures, and a central rectangular garden. Ornate balconies line the surrounding walls under the soft glow of evening light.

Last days in Boston for #NCSS24 Checked out the #BostonPublicLibrary & Map collection. I found the original map used on #STAAR. I will continue to show it as an example of thinking critically. #MITMueseum and the #IsabellaStewartGardner are both amazing! Check them out! #Museumsaremyhappyplace

Will Forever love the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum. I was lucky enough to visit during the Raqib Shaw exhibit as well.
So much inspiration every time I visit.
