Description
A myth-busting tour through the lives of starving artists, unusual exhibitions and painting blunders throughout history. Think that the Mona Lisa is the most reproduced image in history? Think again: it’s the Queen, on stamps and currency around the world. Also, learn which famous painting led a bunch of Oxford academics to create a flute that can be played with your bottom, and why there is a bust of Lenin at the South Pole. A fascinating insight into the true history of art.
