Phoenix Art Museum Docents Present: Art All Around Us

The Voyage of Life

Experience a new perspective on art through these presentations and conversation series by Phoenix Art Museum Docents.

How often have you thought about life as a journey?  Artist Thomas Cole created four paintings that he titled The Voyage of Life. Individually they are named Childhood, Youth, Manhood , and Old Age. Using these Cole paintings as a framework, we will explore how many artists have depicted people at various ages on their personal voyage of life. Artists have long portrayed people in a variety of ways, doing many things at different ages. You will not only enjoy seeing the connections between these stages of life; you might also find yourself making a few connections of your own.

Presented by Docent Jean LaShelle.
