from Standard Issue Podcast · host Standard Issue
Women's bodies are a constant source of controversy and debate, during pregnancy as much as any other time in our lives. In the first of a series about pregnancy running throughout February, Jen checked out the Foundling Museum's Portraying Pregnancy: From Holbein to Social Media exhibition, and caught up with its curator Karen Hearn, as well as the museum's director Caro Howell, to find out why this stage of a woman's life has historically been so shrouded in mystery, and precisely what an art historian makes of those famous Beyonce snaps.
