Hilary Guise
We follow the story of wine in art from ancient Assyrian art and Greek vase painting, through Rome , France, Italy and Holland to 18th century England and the 19th century French Impressionists. The mutual desire for perfection and beauty creates a natural affinity between the language of art and the poetry of wine. Ticket price and further details later.
