The Buzz -- The first two years of the Louvre Atlanta belonged to the Royal Collections and the Ancient World, respectively, but year three is all about the concept of the masterpiece. What is a masterpiece, and how have different generations defined and applied the term? Why have artists gone overlooked in their own times only to have their genius discovered years, often decades after their deaths? Find answers to these (and more) questions at the High Museum.
