Episode 37: The Hope Diamond

from Stuff about Things: An Art History Podcast · host Lindsay Sheedy

Diamonds are a girl’s best friend. Marilyn Monroe and Madonna told me so! That is… unless those diamonds are cursed! This episode is a deep-dive into the Hope Diamond, a 45.52 carat blue diamond in the collection of the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History. Come for an almost too-thorough history, stay for stories about a blingy great dane named Mike.Music credits:"Success Dream" (Hooksounds.com)"Brandenburg Concerto No. 4 in G, Movement I (Allegro), BWV 1049"Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/
