Religious display as art has long been a contentious subject, and people's perspectives on it rely greatly on their cultural background, religious beliefs, and personal values. In this podcast, we talk about the highly controversial Ghent Altarpiece, also known as the Adoration of the Mystic Lamb. It has been the target of thefts, controversies, and a variety of ideas over the years. The theft of several of the panels by Nazi forces during World War II, which sparked a multidecade hunt for the missing pieces, is possibly the most well-known of these. Listen to this podcast to learn more about this extremely fascinating and rich work of art.
