Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 The paintings and sculptures at the Knossos museum were largely recreations of the early twentieth century AD. It was easy for Waugh, visiting soon after the restoration, to spot how little of the art was actually Minoan.
#2 Evans, the son of a wellknown antiquarian, was appointed Keeper of the Ashmolean Museum in 1884. He developed the collection into a research resource for European archaeology, and oversaw its move in 1894 into large new premises behind the University Galleries in Beaumont Street.
#3 The Palace of Minos was a recreation of the Minoan palace, and it was extremely popular with tourists. It was controversial, however, and many people had doubts about how it was being restored.
#4 The paradox of Evans is that, while it is easy to ridicule the romantic version of Minoan culture he invented in concrete and paint, the excavations on site were hardheaded and extremely careful.
