Description
Imagine a Museum of Lost Art. If this imaginary museum contained just the artwork we knew was lost? whether from theft, purposeful destruction, vandalism, war, or the forces of nature?it would still contain more masterpieces than those in all the world's current museums combined. Imagine that! Art historian Noah Charney guides you through just such an imaginary museum. In 12 fascinating lectures accompanied by stunning graphics, you will hear the stories behind the theft and/or destruction of some of the world's most famous pieces of art. From the 21st-century Taliban's iconoclastic destruction of the 500-year-old Buddha Statues at Bamiyan to the earthquake that felled the Colossus of Rhodes in 226 BCE, no one knows how many great works of art have been destroyed or lost throughout history. Only very few have ever resurfaced.
