I’ll admit, I wasn’t sure what to expect in the first 2 episodes, but I persevered, and I’m so glad that I did. I have a long standing love of art history, but I was looking for something different - not just a rehash of all of the usual artistic subjects. Lindsey does a fantastically thorough job of telling the stories of each of the art pieces that she has chosen, and I look forward to hearing more!

Found this by listening to the Gardner Museum heist episodes and if you can make it through them (they’re l o n g but worth it!), you’ll be hooked. Loving learning more about art history this way through Lindsay’s easy manner.

Art history is our history. Lindsay brings her A Game in every episode. The Story behind the heist at the Isabella Stuart Gardner Museum was EPIC. It warmed my art major’s heart and shows why Art is in everything and belongs to everyone! (Except the robbers).
Apple Podcasts5Yogi&MimiUnited States2 months ago - A great source of knowledge
This podcast is great fun and full of information that many people would never know about art topics we know and some that we don’t but should. Keep up the great work Lindsay
