Discover the Thyssen Museum with Alaska: Expulsion. Moon and Firelight, by Thomas Cole

Date:
5 July 2022
Language:
Spanish with English subtitles

On this occasion, Alaska examines Thomas Cole’s Expulsion. Moon and Firelight, painted in about 1828, another of her favourite pieces at the museum. She explains the symbolism of this painting as a metaphor for 19th-century industrialisation.

Alaska shows us her favourite works at the Thyssen from a different point of view, explaining the impact these artists have had on other cultural expressions.

The trends of the past have always influenced new artists born centuries later.
