The Barber Institute of Fine Arts in Birmingham has been uploading a series of short recorded presentations entitled 'Tuesday Talks' onto their website. Each talk examines some particular object or theme from their collection.
This week's talk examines a c.1500 English alabaster statue of St James acquired by the institute in 2019 (pictured). Other previous talks focus on works by Cezanne, Ostade, Rossetti and 'Attitudes to female labour in 19th century art'.
