Description
Art Heists and History will provide an introduction to art history through a study of major art heists, including the looting of the Elgin Marbles, Nazi art plundering, and the multiple thefts of The Scream. Topics will cross periods and cultures to provide a diverse survey of art history. Additionally, we will be discussing the lasting impact of these art-related crimes, as well as contemporary issues of art repatriation.
