Additional information
In 1923–24, Fogg Museum curator Langdon Warner led the First Fogg Expedition to China, returning with fragmentary artworks removed from the Mogao Caves in northwestern China. Today, the collection is filled with these and other materials that have been separated from their archaeological context. In this seminar, curator Sarah Laursen will share a selection of painting and sculptural fragments and lead a discussion about patronage, provenance, and the ethics of early collecting of Asian art at Harvard.
