Lost Treasures of the Titanic Online
Join Mallory Mortillaro on Wednesday, November 19 at 7 pm on Zoom for this fascinating lecture on the lost treasures of the Titanic.
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 takes a closer look at and tells the stories of some of the more interesting and valuable treasures lost on that fateful night.
