Sinopsis

Lost Art Treasures explores the shadowy world of stolen, missing, and misplaced masterpieces, delving into the circumstances of their disappearances and the ongoing quests for their recovery. These treasures represent more than mere monetary value; they are vital pieces of our cultural heritage, and their absence leaves a significant void in our understanding of art history.

 
The book examines famous cases, such as the Just Judges panel of the Ghent Altarpiece and the Amber Room, highlighting the historical context, investigative processes, and the impact of these losses on the art world.

 
The book uniquely blends art history with elements of criminology and international law. It presents meticulously researched accounts, drawing from diverse sources like archival documents and forensic analysis, to reveal the sophisticated networks involved in art crime.

 
The narrative progresses from an introduction of the concept of art crime through detailed narratives of specific lost works, concluding with ethical implications of art recovery.

    Anyone who has lived near New Haven, Connecticut, in the past forty-plus years has surely heard of Toad's Place. With a capacity of 750, Toad's has served as the perfect spot for musicians who prefer smaller venues. U2 played one of their first US concerts there, on their Boy tour. In 1978, Bruce Springsteen was in New Haven and arrived at Toad's unannounced, and got up and played. The surprises kept coming and the club was attracting big names, as well as up-and-comers. In 1989, the Rolling Stones played a surprise show on a Saturday night, giving 700 fans the night of their dreams. Nothing could have been better—the Rolling Stones in downtown New Haven was unimaginable! That is only a taste of the stories that are uncovered in this book. Randall Beach and Toad's owner Brian Phelps recall the legendary shows and behind-the-scenes stories.

    Bob Dylan is an iconic American artist, whose music and performances have long reflected different musical genres and time periods. His songs tell tales of the Civil War, harken back to 1930s labor struggles, and address racial violence at the height of the civil rights movement, helping listeners to think about history, and history making, in new ways. While Dylan was warned by his early mentor, Dave Van Ronk, that, "You’re just going to be a history book writer if you do those things. An anachronism," the musician has continued to traffic in history and engage with a range of source material—ancient and modern—over the course of his career. 
     
     
     
    In this beautifully crafted book, Freddy Cristóbal Domínguez makes a provocative case for Dylan as a historian, offering a deep consideration of the musician's historical influences and practices. Utilizing interviews, speeches, and the close analysis of lyrics and live performances, Bob Dylan in the Attic is the first book to consider Dylan's work from the point of view of historiography.
