The Monuments Men ― Allied Heroes, Nazi Thieves, and the Greatest Treasure Hunt in History
商品資訊
商品簡介
Now a major motion film!
At the same time Adolf Hitler was attempting to take over the western world, his armies were methodically seeking and hoarding the finest art treasures in Europe. The Fuehrer had begun cataloguing the art he planned to collect as well as the art he would destroy: "degenerate" works he despised.
In a race against time, behind enemy lines, often unarmed, a special force of American and British museum directors, curators, art historians, and others, called the Monuments Men, risked their lives scouring Europe to prevent the destruction of thousands of years of culture.
Focusing on the eleven-month period between D-Day and V-E Day, this fascinating account follows six Monuments Men and their impossible mission to save the world's great art from the Nazis.
作者簡介
Robert Edsel began his career in the oil and gas exploration business. In 1996 he moved to Europe to pursue his interests in the arts. Settling in Florence seeing some of the great works, he wondered how all of the monuments and art treasures survived the devastation of World War II. During the ensuing years, he devoted himself to finding the answer. In the process, he commissioned major research that has resulted inThe Monuments Men. Robert also coproduced the related documentary film, The Rape of Europa, and cowrote Rescuing Da Vinci, a photographic history of an art heist of epic proportions and the Allied rescue effort. The author lives in Dallas.Jeremy Davidson has appeared extensively on stage, including in the Kennedy Center's production of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, in which he starred opposite his now-wife Mary Stuart Masterson. On Broadway, he appeared in Epic Proportions and Off-Broadway in Manhattan Theater Club's La Terasse.
