MIT / French Library Author Talks: Camille de Peretti on Portrait of an Unknown Woman

About

In 1910, Gustav Klimt painted a young woman, then painted over her portrait. The painting was stolen in 1997 and unexpectedly resurfaced two decades later. Camille de Peretti uses this intriguing chapter in art history to imagine the woman behind the painting and the generations that follow her.
