Event
Sweet Dreams and Grim Nightmares
Artistic renditions of Sleeping Beauty have been prevalent in popular art for centuries, but fairy tales experienced a particular resurgence around World War I. Illustrations produced during this period focused not on happily ever after, but on vulnerability, eroticism, loneliness and violence. In this lecture, presented by one of our youngest guest speakers, Tenae Chiotti Stewart, we will explore these topics through the lens of the French and German versions of Sleeping Beauty and their early 20th century interpretations. Ms. Stewart has a BS degree in Art History from Sonoma State University and has presented papers at historical symposiums including one at the DeYoung Museum.
