Event Details

James Cameron’s Titanic told the invented story of the Heart of the Ocean; a fictional blue diamond necklace lost tragically in the ship’s famous sinking.  But what about the real treasures that were lost when the Titanic sank?  For over a century the world has been intrigued by the story of the Titanic.  When tragedy struck on April 14, 1912, in addition to the incredible loss of life, a nearly incalculable amount of goods plummeted into the ocean, never to be seen again.  This lecture, given by Mallory Mortillaro (art historian and lecturer), takes a closer look and tells the stories of some of the more interesting and valuable treasures lost on that fateful night.
