ollowing on from opening her exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art, which continues until August, the US-born, Berlin-based artist Christine Sun Kim this week opened a show in London in collaboration with Thomas Mader. The exhibition, 1880 THAT, uses a notorious historic conference in Milan in 1880, which effectively outlawed sign language in Deaf education, as a springboard to explore languages and stigma in Deaf and hearing cultures today. Ben Luke discusses the show with Kim and Mader. In Abu Dhabi, the latest museum devoted to the interactive art of the Japanese collective teamLab opens this week in the Saadiyat Cultural District. The Art Newspaper's reporter in the Middle East, Melissa Gronlund, has visited the museum and tells us more about teamLab's newest immersive experience. And this episode's Work of the Week is Young Woman seated at a Virginal (1670-75), a painting by Jan Vermeer that may be the very last picture he ever made. Our special correspondent, Martin Bailey, tells us how new conservation of the picture has revealed that 17th-century pollution may hold the key to dating the painting.1880 THAT: Christine Sun Kim and Thomas Mader, Wellcome Collection, London, until 16 November; Christine Sun Kim: All Day All Night is at the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, until 6 July.teamLab: Phenomena, Abu Dhabi, opens 18 April.From Rembrandt to Vermeer: Masterpieces from The Leiden Collection, H'ART Museum, Amsterdam, until 24 August.Subscription offer: enjoy a three-month digital subscription to The Art Newspaper for just £3/$3/€3.

Onder de rook van De Kuip, waar de betonwanden even hard zijn als de stemmen van het legioen, liep op een dag een blonde spits het veld op met meer bravoure dan ervaring. John Guidetti. Geen geboren Rotterdammer, geen sierlijke stylist — maar een jongen die met één schot, één gebaar, en één grijns de harten van Zuid veroverde. Hij was geen cultheld. Hij was een fenomeen.Hij kwam als huurling, maar sprak als aanvoerder. Nog geen minuut gespeeld, al wel zeker: "We worden kampioen." Hij vroeg niet om respect, hij eiste het. Nummer 10? Natuurlijk, zei hij. “Geef me dat shirt.” Hij had nog geen doelpunt gemaakt, maar in zijn hoofd waren de netten al weken aan flarden geschoten. Dat was Guidetti. Onverzettelijk. Ongeduldig. On-Rotterdams snel geliefd.Zijn hoogtepunt werd een hoofdstuk in de clubgeschiedenis. Ajax op bezoek. De dag dat De Kuip niet zong, maar daverde. Guidetti was ziek, maar zieke spelers scoren geen hattrick tegen Ajax. Hij wel. Een strafschop in de kruising, een intikker uit het niets, een beslissende schuiver langs Vermeer. Drie doelpunten, zes jaar frustratie weggeschoten. Sindsdien stond zijn naam niet meer in het programmaboekje, maar in de marmerlijsten van de club.Maar zoals elke held kent ook hij zijn schaduwzijde. Geen afscheid op zijn voorwaarden. Voedselvergiftiging, revalidatie, gemiste toernooien. Toch was zijn laatste groet in de Kuip geen aftocht, maar een ereronde. Sjaal om, vlag in de lucht, gedragen op de schouders van de mensen voor wie hij, in veel te weinig wedstrijden, alles was.Twintig goals in drieëntwintig duels. En een erfenis die geen cijfers nodig heeft. Sommige spelers komen voor even, anderen blijven voor altijd. Guidetti kwam als huurling, maar vertrok als held. En helden, die vergeten ze niet in Rotterdam.In de podcast verwijzen we naar:Zijn hattrick in De Klassieker: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1HJ-l48d-UZie het privacybeleid op https://art19.com/privacy en de privacyverklaring van Californië op https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Curator Aimee Ng discusses the reopening and renovations of the venerable Frick Collection, including what exhibits to check out. The Frick opens to the public on April 17.

We invite you to come with us inside one of America's most interesting art museums – an institution that is BOTH an art gallery and a historic home.This is The Frick Collection, located at 1 East 70th Street, within the former Fifth Avenue mansion of Gilded Age mogul Henry Clay Frick, containing many pieces that the steel titan himself purchased, as well as many other incredible works of art from master painters such as Rembrandt, Vermeer, Goya, Turner, and Whistler.Frick himself had a rather complicated legacy. As a master financier and chairman of Andrew Carnegie's massive steel enterprise, Frick helped create the materials for America's railroads and bridges. But his intolerance of labor unions led to a bloody confrontation in the summer of 1892, making him, for a time, one of the most hated men in America.New Yorkers' love for the Frick Collection, however, remains far less complicated. The institution, which as been a museum since 1935, allows visitors to experience the work of the great master painters in an often regal and intimate setting, allowing people to imagine the fanciful life of the Gilded Age. The Frick Collection reopens this month after an extensive renovation (temporarily relocating the collection to the Breuer Buildiing for a few years) and we've got a sneak preview, featuring Frick curator and art historian Aimee Ng.

What REALLY is the impact of leadership in growing an experimentation? And is "stable leadership" something which may actually be messing up your ability to grow your program?This was something I wanted to enlist the thoughts from the "Taco King" himself, Lukas Vermeer. We went into some great thoughts and conversations around building trust, being perceived as a credible person to help you grow your experimentation program, and other important things related to leadership and experimentation. We got into: - How Lukas REALLY built anti-fragile experimentation at Booking.com (and how some parts MAY have been influenced by the ... Dutch Mafia?!)- The impacts of working from home to building and scaling experimentation (spoiler: it DOES make shit harder)- "Trust" and "Credibility" are two VERY important things in growing experimentation - how you actually GET those, well Lukas and Shiva have thoughtsTimestamps:00:00 Episode Start3:02 The Leadership at Booking.com (and how it WAS stable)8:57 Which Impacts Experimentation More?

Nous sommes le 30 janvier 1649, à Naples. Dans une lettre qu'elle adresse à Antonio Ruffo, l'un de ses commanditaires, lui annonçant le prochain envoi d'un tableaux, Artemisia Gentileschi écrit : «… Le nom d'une femme soulève des doutes jusqu'à ce que son travail soit vu…» Huit mois plus tard, le 7 août, Artemisia, âgée de cinquante-six ans, ajoute : « Mon illustre seigneurie, je vais vous montrer ce qu'une femme peut faire ». Le 13 novembre de la même année, l'artiste insiste : "Avec moi, Votre Seigneurie ne perdra pas et vous trouverez l'esprit de César dans l'âme d'une femme". Avant de conclure : "Je ne vous dérangerai plus avec ce bavardage féminin, car les œuvres parleront d'elles-mêmes". Née à Rome, fille de peintre, Artemisia commence sa formation artistique dans l'atelier de son père. Alors qu'elle n'a pas dix-huit ans, un événement violent change le cours de sa vie : elle est violée par un collaborateur de l'atelier familial. Un viol qui va entacher durablement sa réputation et orienter toute sa ultérieure. Le procès de son violeur, qui sera aussi le sien, va marquer les esprits de ses contemporains et la postérité. En 1916, commentant l'une des peintures parmi les plus célèbres de l'artiste « Judith décapitant Holopherne », le critique d'art Roberto Longhi note : « Qui pourrait penser que sous un drap étudié de candeurs et d'ombres glacées dignes d'un Vermeer grandeur nature, pouvait se dérouler une boucherie aussi brutale et atroce (…) ? Longhi ajoute : « (…) ce qui surprend, c'est l'impassibilité féroce de qui a peint tout cela et a même réussi à vérifier que le sang giclant avec violence peut orner le jet central d'un vol de gouttes sur les deux bords ! » . Artemisia Gentileschi : de l'infamie peur naître la force … Avec les Lumières d'Anne Hustache, historienne de l'art. Sujets traités : Artémisia Gentileschi, Antonio Ruffo, artiste, réputation, viol, infamie , Rome, peintre, tableau Merci pour votre écoute Un Jour dans l'Histoire, c'est également en direct tous les jours de la semaine de 13h15 à 14h30 sur www.rtbf.be/lapremiere Retrouvez tous les épisodes d'Un Jour dans l'Histoire sur notre plateforme Auvio.be :https://auvio.rtbf.be/emission/5936 Intéressés par l'histoire ?

We unravel the layers of Cahill's life, from his humble beginnings to his rise as a criminal mastermind. The planning involved is nothing short of genius—he even built a secret bunker to stash the loot! However, all's fair in love and war, and the aftermath of this heist reveals a tangled mess of police investigations and underworld dealings that would make even the most seasoned detective shake their head.

In the early hours of March 18, 1990, two men dressed as police officers entered Boston's Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum and walked out with over $500 million worth of art. The crime scene was bizarre. The guards were found tied up in the basement. The stolen pieces included masterpieces by Rembrandt, Vermeer, Manet, and others—none of which have ever been recovered.In part one of this two-part series, Joel and Steph dive into the events of that night, exploring how the theft unfolded, what was taken, and why this remains the most valuable art heist in modern history. They explore the strange choices made by the thieves, the details left behind, and the early theories that gripped the public and baffled investigators.Come follow us on all the apps@framedthepod@joeldavid_b@cheersthanxalotWant to watch the episode?

Fluent Fiction - Dutch: From Canals to Canvases: An Unexpected Art Adventure in Amsterdam Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/nl/episode/2025-03-23-22-34-01-nl Story Transcript:Nl: Sander liep naast Femke langs de grachten van Amsterdam.En: Sander walked next to Femke along the canals of Amsterdam.Nl: Het was een prachtige lentedag, het soort dag dat je uitnodigt om nieuwe avonturen te beleven.En: It was a beautiful spring day, the kind of day that invites you to experience new adventures.Nl: "Laten we het Rijksmuseum bezoeken," stelde Sander voor, zijn stem vol enthousiasme.En: "Let's visit the Rijksmuseum," Sander suggested, his voice full of enthusiasm.Nl: Hij hoopte dat Femke net zo zou genieten als hij.En: He hoped that Femke would enjoy it just as much as he did.Nl: Sander hield van kunst, of deed tenminste alsof, vooral vandaag.En: Sander loved art, or at least pretended to, especially today.Nl: Binnen waren de grote hallen van het Rijksmuseum gevuld met de geur van geschiedenis en oude schilderijen.En: Inside, the large halls of the Rijksmuseum were filled with the scent of history and old paintings.Nl: De muren hingen vol met meesterwerken.En: The walls were adorned with masterpieces.Nl: Femke keek verbaasd om zich heen.En: Femke looked around in amazement.Nl: "Er is zoveel te zien," zei ze zacht.En: "There is so much to see," she said softly.Nl: Ze liepen samen door de gangen, bewonderend de werken van Rembrandt en Vermeer.En: They walked together through the corridors, admiring the works of Rembrandt and Vermeer.Nl: Toen, bij toeval, belandden ze in een apart deel van het museum.En: Then, by chance, they ended up in a different part of the museum.Nl: Dit was geen gewone tentoonstelling.En: This was not an ordinary exhibition.Nl: De sfeer was anders, formeler, en er stonden mensen in nette pakken.En: The atmosphere was different, more formal, and there were people in smart suits.Nl: Ze waren blijkbaar midden in een exclusief evenement voor kunstcritici beland.En: Apparently, they had stumbled into an exclusive event for art critics.Nl: Sander voelde een tinteling van nervositeit, maar verborg die snel.En: Sander felt a twinge of nervousness but quickly hid it.Nl: "Dit is precies waar ik je over vertelde, Femke," zei hij nonchalant.En: "This is exactly what I was telling you about, Femke," he said nonchalantly.Nl: Hij wilde niet toegeven dat hij eigenlijk helemaal niet wist wat hij moest zeggen.En: He didn't want to admit that he actually had no idea what to say.Nl: Femke keek hem even aan, glimlachte en besloot hem het voordeel van de twijfel te geven.En: Femke glanced at him, smiled, and decided to give him the benefit of the doubt.Nl: De kamer was gevuld met abstracte schilderijen en moderne kunst, een scherp contrast met de klassieke stukken die ze eerder hadden gezien.En: The room was filled with abstract paintings and modern art, a stark contrast to the classical pieces they had seen earlier.Nl: Sander wees naar een groot schilderij dat eruitzag als een chaos van kleuren en lijnen.En: Sander pointed to a large painting that looked like a chaos of colors and lines.Nl: "Dit suggereert de innerlijke strijd van de moderne mens," zei hij met een zelfverzekerde stem, terwijl hij eigenlijk ter plekke iets verzon.En: "This suggests the inner struggle of modern man," he said with a confident voice, while he actually made something up on the spot.Nl: Net toen Femke dacht dat ze misschien weg moesten glippen, kwam er een man naar hen toe.En: Just when Femke thought they might need to slip away, a man approached them.Nl: "Wat vindt u van onze hoofdtentoonstelling?"En: "What do you think of our main exhibition?"Nl: vroeg hij geïnteresseerd.En: he asked with interest.Nl: Sander keek even bedenkelijk, en zei toen: "Deze stukken confronteren ons met de tijdelijkheid van perceptie, nietwaar?"En: Sander paused thoughtfully and then said, "These pieces confront us with the temporality of perception, don't they?"Nl: Er viel een stille bewondering.En: A silent admiration fell over them.Nl: De andere genodigden knikten instemmend.En: The other guests nodded in agreement.Nl: Sander voelde zich alsof hij elk moment kon worden ontmaskerd, maar kreeg tegelijkertijd een golf van zelfvertrouwen.En: Sander felt as if he could be exposed at any moment, but simultaneously experienced a wave of self-confidence.Nl: Femke keek met nieuwe ogen naar haar gezelschap.En: Femke looked at her companion with new eyes.Nl: Ze had nooit gedacht dat Sander tot zo'n antwoord in staat was, maar ze wist diep vanbinnen dat hij vooral geluk had gehad.En: She had never thought Sander was capable of such an answer, but she knew deep down that he had mostly been lucky.Nl: Na afloop van de bijeenkomst kwam de man weer naar hen toe.En: After the gathering, the man approached them again.Nl: "U moet naar onze volgende tentoonstelling komen," zei hij met een glimlach.En: "You must come to our next exhibition," he said with a smile.Nl: "U heeft een interessante kijk op kunst."En: "You have an interesting perspective on art."Nl: Sander glimlachte terug, iets nerveus.En: Sander smiled back, somewhat nervously.Nl: "Dank u, maar ik denk dat ik het bij deze ene keer laat," zei hij.En: "Thank you, but I think I'll leave it at this one time," he said.Nl: Buiten, in het zonlicht, sloeg Femke hem lichtjes op de schouder.En: Outside, in the sunlight, Femke lightly tapped him on the shoulder.Nl: "Ik wist het al die tijd," gaf ze toe.En: "I knew it all along," she admitted.Nl: "Je hebt jezelf echt gered daarbinnen.En: "You really saved yourself in there.Nl: Misschien moeten we vaker naar kunst kijken, zonder druk."En: Maybe we should look at art more often, without pressure."Nl: Sander schoot in de lach.En: Sander burst into laughter.Nl: "Misschien heb je gelijk.En: "Maybe you're right.Nl: En weet je, ik denk dat ik kunst nu beter begrijp.En: And you know, I think I understand art better now.Nl: Het gaat om wat jij erin ziet, niet?"En: It's about what you see in it, isn't it?"Nl: Femke knikte.En: Femke nodded.Nl: "Ja, en er is geen goed of fout," zei ze met een glimlach.En: "Yes, and there's no right or wrong," she said with a smile.Nl: Ze liepen hand in hand verder, genietend van de lente in Amsterdam.En: They walked hand in hand, enjoying the spring in Amsterdam.Nl: Hun avontuur in het Rijksmuseum was misschien niet zoals gepland, maar het had hen dichter bij elkaar gebracht.En: Their adventure in the Rijksmuseum may not have gone as planned, but it had brought them closer together.

De BBB pleit inzake Oekraïne voor gezond verstand: liever een vrede met compromissen dan een nog grotere oorlog. Maar wat betekent dat precies en onder welke omstandigheden zou de partij instemmen met de inzet van troepen? Sven spreekt BBB-Kamerlid Henk Vermeer hierover.

Rembrandt van Rijn is the best known of all the Dutch masters. His range was vast, from landscapes to portraits to Biblical scenes; he revolutionised every medium he handled, from oil paintings to etchings and drawings. His vision encompassed every element of life – the sleeping lion; the pissing baby; the lacerated soles of the returned prodigal son. Making the case for him in this debate was Simon Schama. For him Rembrandt is humanity unedited: rough, raw, violent, manic, vain, greedy and manipulative. Formal beauty was the least of his concerns, argues Schama, yet he attains beauty through his understanding of the human condition, including to be sure, his own. But for novelist Tracy Chevalier it can all get a little exhausting. Rembrandt's paintings, she believes – even those that are not his celebrated self-portraits – are all about himself. Championing Vermeer, she claimed that his charm lies in the very fact that he absents himself from his paintings. As a result they are less didactic and more magical than Rembrandt's, giving the viewer room to breathe. Chevalier has been obsessed with Vermeer since the age of 19, when she first saw his Girl with a Pearl Earring. The girl's startled eyes and luscious, inviting mouth produce a tantalising sense of mystery and contradiction. An other-worldly mystery also veils Vermeer's Delft street scenes and interiors. Apparently so everyday, they are lifted to a higher sphere by the indirect gaze and the turned back, all bathed in that fuzzy, filmic Vermeer veneer. And so often they, too, ask a question. Who wrote the letter that the woman in blue reads so attentively? Who does the girl in the gold jacket strum her guitar for? The questions are never answered but we are lured back again and again in search of an answer. Which of these two titans is the greater master – Rembrandt or Vermeer? ------ If you'd like to become a Member and get access to all our full conversations, plus all of our Members-only content, just visit intelligencesquared.com/membership to find out more.

« Les goûts et les couleurs, ça ne se discute pas. » Cet épisode du « Goût de M » démontre tout le contraire en compagnie de l'érudit et jovial Michel Pastoureau. L'historien médiéviste de 77 ans, qui a publié « Rose. Histoire d'une couleur au Seuil » en 2024, a exploré durant sa carrière toute une palette du spectre visible. L'homme, dont la couleur préférée est le vert, nous reçoit parmi ses 35 000 livres, dans son appartement qui surplombe un court de tennis de Roland-Garros aux portes de Paris.Né d'une mère pharmacienne, férue de botanique, et d'un père proche des surréalistes, Michel Pastoureau se rappelle des visites d'André Breton, un homme qui lui faisait un peu peur, mais qui lui a appris à dessiner. Dans l'immeuble qu'il habitait avec ses parents sur la butte Montmartre, il avait aussi pour voisins les écrivains Raymond Queneau et Léopold Sédar Senghor.Dans cet épisode, il confie sa passion pour les échecs, le sport ou le chocolat, son péché mignon. Il déclare son amour pour le tableau « La Ruelle » de Vermeer et pour le roman « La Méprise » de Vladimir Nabokov. Outre les couleurs, l'historien, que Jacques Le Goff et Georges Duby ont encouragé dans sa carrière, s'est aussi intéressé aux animaux et à leur symbolique. Durant son enfance, qu'il qualifie de « choyée et dorlotée », le petit garçon s'était d'ailleurs épris des cochons du fermier, voisin de la maison de campagne familiale en Basse-Normandie.Depuis six saisons, la journaliste et productrice Géraldine Sarratia interroge la construction et les méandres du goût d'une personnalité. Qu'ils ou elles soient créateurs, artistes, cuisiniers ou intellectuels, tous convoquent leurs souvenirs d'enfance, tous évoquent la dimension sociale et culturelle de la construction d'un corpus de goûts, d'un ensemble de valeurs.Un podcast produit et présenté par Géraldine Sarratia (Genre idéal) préparé avec l'aide de Diane Lisarelli et Juliette SavardRéalisation : Emmanuel BauxMusique : Gotan Project Hébergé par Audion.

Watch the Q&A session here:  https://youtu.be/f6Z9L2dnxSAThis lecture explores the emergence of the "femme au piano" genre in 19th-century French painting, depicted by artists like Renoir, Van Gogh, and Matisse. What suddenly made this topic so popular, and what does it tell us about the role of women in music-making at the time? Tracing the genre's roots from the Italian Renaissance clavichord depictions to Vermeer's Dutch domestic scenes, and 18th-century harpsichord portraits. Discover how the piano became a middle-class status symbol and how modernists of the 1910s-20s reinterpreted it. Presented from the perspective of a music historian, this lecture will delve into the roots of the “Women at the Piano” genre and reveal how these paintings offer a window onto women's music-making.This lecture was recorded by Marina Frolova-Walker  on 10th December 2024 at Barnard's Inn Hall, London.Marina is Gresham Emerita Professor of Music.Marina Frolova-Walker, a Russian-born British musicologist and music historian, was Visiting Gresham Professor of Russian Music in 2018-19 and Gresham Professor of Music 2019-23.

Tracy Chevalier è famosa per il romanzo "La ragazza con l'orecchino di perla" in cui prendeva spunto dalla vita del pittore Vermeer e della sua modella. Poi sono seguiti altri romanzi sempre ispirati a fatti storici e ora è in libreria con "La maestra del vetro" (Neri Pozza - traduz. Massimo Ortelio). Anche in questo caso un romanzo che ci porta nel passato anche se in realtà questa volta la scrittrice gioca con la dimensione del tempo perché la protagonista e le persone a lei care attraversano oltre 500 anni. Si raccontano le vicende di Orsola Rosso che alla fine del Quattrocento a Venezia appartiene a una famiglia di vetrai: crescendo impara l'arte di creare perle di vetro grazie agli insegnamenti di una famiglia di vetrai concorrenti. Il fratello Marco non apprezza il suo lavoro ed è anche piuttosto sferzante con lei, ma Orsola non si dà per vinta e grazie anche a una rete di donne cercherà di affermare sè stessa.

On March 18, 1990, the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston suffered one of the greatest art thefts in history. Even though only 13 pieces of art were stolen, the combined value was worth over $500 million….practically priceless.  One was a Rembrandt seascape known as The Storm Over the Sea of Galilee, oh its just the ONLY SEASCAPE REMBRANDT EVER DID! Sorry for yelling... they also took another piece called The Concert , by Vermeer. It's the only missing Vermeer in the world. The Rembrandt and the Vermeer alone were valued at the time at over $200 million....basically what we're saying is this was a big heist; the largest personal property heist in the world....so far ;)    Check out our other shows!: Cryptic Soup w/ Thena & Kylee   Strange & Unexplained   True Crime Guys YouTube   EVERYTHING TRUE CRIME GUYS:   https://linktr.ee/Truecrimeguysproductions   True Crime Guys Music: True Crime Guys Music on Spotify   OhMyGaia.com Code: Creepvan     Patreon.com/truecrimeguys Patreon.com/sandupodcast Merch: truecrimeguys.threadless.com   Sources: New England's Unsolved: The Gardner heist 30 years later $500M Art Heist STILL Unsolved After Decades | History's Greatest Mysteries (Season 4) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkxQXxKSWKQ  

In this episode, we speak with Brian Streem, Founder and CEO of Vermeer, about his journey from film production to pioneering drone technology in Ukraine's defense ecosystem.

We explore Vermeer's Visual Positioning System, the competitive drone market, and Brian's unique approach to solving problems, starting with listening to customers. It's a candid, insightful discussion you won't want to miss.

1994: arriva in libreria il romanzo "Jack Frusciante è uscito dal gruppo", pubblicato da Transeuropa, piccola casa editrice nota per la sua capacità di scoprire nuovi talenti. L'autore è il giovane Enrico Brizzi e la sua opera prima è destinata a segnare un'intera generazione e a diventare un best seller. Si raccontava la storia del diciassettenne Alex, liceo classico a Bologna, carattere mite, che inizia improvvisamente a contestare la famiglia. Si innamora di Aidi e i due vivono un rapporto un po' altalenante perché Aidi sta per andare a studiare negli Stati Uniti. Dove finisce "Jack Frusciante è uscito dal gruppo" inizia il romanzo "Due" (Harper Collins) il sequel scritto sempre da Enrico Brizzi trent'anni dopo. Il romanzo racconta il periodo che va da giugno '92 a giugno '93, un anno in cui Alex e Aidi, divisi da un Oceano, devono fare i conti con il dolore e la separazione. Nella seconda parte il ritorno in libreria della scrittrice Tracy Chevalier, famosa per il romanzo "La ragazza con l'orecchino di perla" in cui prendeva spunto dalla vita del pittore Vermeer e della sua modella. Poi sono seguiti altri romanzi sempre ispirati a fatti storici e ora è in libreria con "La maestra del vetro" (Neri Pozza - traduz. Massimo Ortelio). Anche in questo caso un romanzo che ci porta nel passato anche se in realtà questa volta la scrittrice gioca con la dimensione del tempo perché la protagonista e le persone a lei care attraversano oltre 500 anni. Si raccontano le vicende di Orsola Rosso che alla fine del Quattrocento a Venezia appartiene a una famiglia di vetrai: crescendo impara l'arte di creare perle di vetro grazie agli insegnamenti di una famiglia di vetrai concorrenti. Il fratello Marco non apprezza il suo lavoro ed è anche piuttosto sferzante con lei, ma Orsola non si dà per vinta e grazie anche a una rete di donne cercherà di affermare sè stessa.

The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum heist, one of the most audacious art thefts in history, took place on March 18, 1990, when two men disguised as Boston police officers gained entry to the museum, subdued the guards, and stole 13 priceless works of art worth an estimated $500 million. Among the stolen pieces were masterpieces by Rembrandt, Vermeer, and Degas. Despite decades of investigation, including links to organized crime and several tantalizing leads, the stolen art remains missing, and the identities of the thieves—who were eventually named by the FBI—are now believed to be deceased. The case, still active, continues to captivate the art world as investigators pursue new leads, offering hope that the missing works may one day be recovered.(commercial at 7:36)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
