LECTURE BY PROF. FRANCKE

On "Biblical Illustrations of Durer," and "Dance of Death."

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Professor Kuno Francke will deliver a lecture on "The Biblical Illustrations of Durer" and "Holbein's Dance of Death" in Peabody Hall this evening at 8 o'clock under the auspices of the Harvard Andover Divinity Club. The lecture will be open to the University.

Professor Francke is an authority on Germanic Art at the time of the Reformation with which period this subject deals. The works of Durer express in wonderfully graphic terms the intellectual and religious feeling attached to the Reformation, while Holbein's "Dance of Death" is an interesting example of medieval Germanic art.
