ROYAL
CONCERT
HALL
Young people don't visit classical concerts. Once the center of society, the Amsterdam Royal Concert Hall now knows mainly an audience still reminiscent of different times.

THE BAROQUE SECTION OF THE LONDON NATIONAL GALLERY
"It's just pretty"
The National Gallery is brimmed with portraits, and one thing they all have in common are the clothes that play a large role in the setting and story told on canvas. We still use clothes to express ourselves and we talk about what the influencers and celebs we follow are wearing, but has fast fashion and its path to destruction affected the deeper meaing that clothing once held as well?
