Come along on a thought-provoking journey as we compare the perspectives offered by a Rembrandt portrait and a photograph, examining the treasures of wisdom each medium holds, and explore the case of Socrates' portrayal. We'll discuss the possible insights provided by the Rembrandt portrait as well as the unique qualities that an Alfred Stieglitz photograph may possess. Do we prefer the image over the Rembrandt picture now that Stieglitz was involved? We'll also look at if wanting to know more about Socrates influences our choice of favorite work of art. Tune in to "Capturing Socrates" for an engaging exploration of art, philosophy, and the nature of representation.
