Art History Fun with Dr. Bryan

Art history made fun: famous paintings and sculptures explained by a real art historian, with the best stories and little-known facts.

My friends, I'm Dr. Bryan Zygmont, professor of art history at Mount St. Mary's University. On Art History Fun with Dr. Bryan, we take one masterpiece at a time and tell the story behind it: who made it, how it works, and why it still matters. Why is the Mona Lisa really so famous? (It's not the smile.) Why does the Madonna of the Long Neck have such a long neck? Is The Starry Night the sky Van Gogh saw, or the one he felt?

Expect Renaissance art from Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo, Van Gogh and modern art, and the masterpieces people cross oceans to see: the Pietà, The Last Supper, Lady with an Ermine, David, and more. No art history degree required. Just curiosity.
