Lexington Historical Society: Surrounded By History: Objects Telling Stories
These objects are witnesses to history and can connect us to that history through shared experiences, feelings and purpose.
October 4, 2021
As an art historian it’s become innate in my habits to walk into any room and look at objects, and with looking at those objects come the questions of who made it, what was/is it used for, when was it made and why is it important (more on that concept later). We’re surrounded by objects in our life - some utilitarian, some precious treasures which hold memories, and others somewhere in between.
