Edith Wharton and Ogden Codman: A Creative Kinship
Wednesday, March 17, 7:00 - 8:00 p.m. EDT
American novelist Edith Wharton’s first published work was not a novel but a design manual that she coauthored with the Codman Estate's Ogden Codman Jr. Their book, The Decoration of Houses, was destined to become an interior design classic. Using original letters from Historic New England's Codman family papers archival collection, this illustrated virtual talk with Camille Arbogast, Codman family scholar, offers an inside peek into their artistic friendship, which spanned more than forty years.
Camille Arbogast has conducted extensive research and presented on the Codman family of Lincoln, Mass. A curator with the Brookline Historical Society, she has also created and led programs and tours for Boston-area museums.
