About this event
Throughout art history artists have reimagined and visualised literary scenes and characters, and writers have responded to works of art with various forms of storytelling. For this tour, we are looking at works from the collection that are intrinsically linked to literature.
Meet your tour guide in the Courtyard, near the Merrion Square entrance.
Readers are advised to check with the venue before relying on the details published here.
