5 Pieces You Must See In Your Lifetime
There are many pieces of art people claim that a person must see before he dies. Different people will give you different names of the must-see pieces. For some people, a velvet picture of Elvis may represent the height of culture. A person with more refined tastes will probably name pieces like the Last Supper and the Mona Lisa. When the person making such a list only includes paintings, he is limiting himself to one form of art. There are other great works of art that a person must see before he dies.
Les Miserables is one of the most stirring adaptations of a novel to the musical format. The main characters linger in the memory. Javert’s suicide is a chilling reminder of why we need to forgive. If we turn our attention to the movies, here is Ben Hur. Critics place Citizen Kane ahead of Ben Hur, but would Citizen Kane achieved much attention if William Randolph Hearst had not attempted to blacklist it? If we want to turn our attention to television shows, MASH serves as a fine commentary on the futility of war. If someone wants to include artwork, he should go see the Peanuts cartoon hanging in the Louvre.
