TOWN HALL OF DENVER LECTURE
Robert Edsel –
The Monuments of Men
Mon. Jan. 23 10am
(Ticketed Event)
A former ranked tennis
player, Mr. Edsel was founder/owner of Gemini Exploration. He later sold the company, moved to Florence,
and restored a villa. While there, he immersed himself in art history and began
a new passion-quest for finding missing Nazi stolen art during WWII. The details
of what occurred are a little known part of history. Hear the fascinating story
of how much of it has
been found, how much is
still out there, Hitler’s secret art journals, Eisenhower’s role and the role
of the Third Reich in a gripping tale of intrigue, bravery and love of culture.
