Beautiful but shallow: The NGV’s new blockbuster is big on celebrity but light on insight
Mostly, the pieces are designed to showcase the wealth of the wearer, and a jewel is nothing if not draped across a powerful figure.
The National Gallery of Victoria's latest blockbuster exhibition focuses heavily on celebrity and opulent jewelry. While visually impressive, the collection's emphasis seems to be on displaying the wealth of its wearers, often adorning powerful figures.
