Winged Victory: Storytelling Across Time

S6 E21: Winged Victory: Storytelling Across TimeWelcome to Rebecca’s Reading Room. I’m your host, Rebecca Budd, and I look forward to sharing this moment with you.A few months ago, while visiting the Louvre Museum in Paris, I found myself standing before one of the most unforgettable sculptures in the world: The Winged Victory of Samothrace. With her wings spread wide and her garments flowing as though touched by sea wind, she seemed at once ancient and astonishingly alive.But beyond the beauty of marble and artistry, I found myself thinking about something deeper: the stories we carry, the stories we inherit, and the stories that help us remember what it means to be human.Today, I invite you to join me as we reflect on Winged Victory not simply as a masterpiece of art, but as a story in stone, one that has travelled across centuries to speak to us still.Pour yourself a cup of tea, settle in, and let us step for a few moments into a story that has outlived empires.Rebecca🎙️Rebecca’s Reading Room PodcastLocation: The Lourvre Museum, ParisPhotography & Voice: Rebecca BuddMusic: Edgar Hopp “Eyes of Yours” Epidemic Soundhttps://www.epidemicsound.com/music/tracks/ef6c8b56-fdb6-44ca-80d8-0a94d43215a8/
