11 SCMA is grateful for the collaboration of the Smith College Spatial Analysis Lab on the interpretive resources associated with this exhibition: director Jon Caris, post-baccalaureate fellow Scott Gilman and student assistants Tanvi Kapoor ’17 and Karen Yu ’16. Additional support was provided by SCMA education student assistant Olivia Feal ’17 and history of art professors Craig Felton, Barbara Kellum and John Moore. THE MUSEUM PRESENTED A RANGE OF PROGRAMS that elucidated themes and ideas in the exhibition. For the Miller Lecture in Art and Art History, esteemed scholar John Pinto explored the dynamic tension inherent in Rome’s dual nature, at once an intensely physical reality and an inspired projection of the artistic imagination. In his lecture, art professor John Moore focused on Giuseppe Vasi’s ambitious Prospetto del’alma città di Roma and presented new research illuminated through extensive correspondence and archival documentation on the relationship of prints and books to diplomatic protocol and to the insufficiently studied topic of book dedications in 18th-century Europe. Anna Lee, postdoctoral fellow and lecturer in history of photography, gave a gallery talk exploring how different approaches in depicting monuments affect viewer experience of works of art, and the ways photography in the 19th century created particular conditions for image-making and interpretation. In their gallery talk, Spatial Analysis Lab director Jon Caris and post-baccalaureate fellow Scott Gilman prompted visitors to consider the ways in which the making, use and interpretation of maps are constantly changing, and how historical maps, such as the spectacular “Nolli map,” are repurposed and reimagined in the digital age. Free Family Day activities were inspired by travel during the age of the Grand Tour as visitors “time- hopped” through the museum, from the exhibition through the collections galleries, with hands-on activities along the way. Second Friday programs focused on drawing and architectural construction; K–12 school groups explored the exhibition in tours facilitated by Student Museum Educators; and Smith students delved into the exhibition in a number of academic class visits from the art, classics and Italian studies departments and multiple visits by the First-year seminar 197: On Display: Museums, Collections and Exhibitions class. When in Rome was supported by the Charlotte Frank Rabb, class of 1935, Fund, the Publications and Research Fund, the Carlyn Steiner ‘67 and George Steiner Endowed Fund, in honor of Joan Smith Koch, the Ann Weinbaum Solomon, class of 1959, Fund, and the Massachusetts Cultural Council.
