Listen "Connections between a Taylor Swift video, a 19th Century Artist and Amalia Kussner"
Episode Synopsis
Come along on a journey that connects Taylor Swift's video, The Fate of Ophelia, to artist John Everett Millais and finally a connection to Amalia Kussner. This now famous video has placed Millais's stunning yet tragic painting, Ophelia, squarely in our public consciousness. The video piqued my interest in that artist, which eventually led me to a discovery of sorts with Amalia Kussner in 1896 London and the Royal Academy.Please do subscribe to this series and listen to the other episodes!I make various references to other sources which I will list below:1) Wikipedia - Ophelia's character in Hamlet. 2) YouTube video about artist John Everett Millais, with commentary by Andrew Marr.
