Themes in American History

The lost museum is the secret of today’s New York City , and broadly, the secret the U.S., that is how the societies and it’s culture had been.I was amazed by walking into the museum,  where I  revealed a gorgeous  past. In the first floor i found “Iranistan”, where P.T. Barnum  got the idea of establishing  an “unique” building by visiting Europe; he was influenced  in “Portraits of P.T. Barnum”, there were several picture; one picture shows Barnum was leering at a dancer: these proves his interest on arts and entertainment. Barnum was an rich business man and he took full advantage of it. His interest transformed a four ears old into a celebrity.

“Scipio Hunted,” Uncle tom’s cabin, 1853, gives the insight of fight between slavery and atni-slavery. Slaves  were treated badly.On that time, white people owned slaves and they had all rights of their slaves, means they could do anything they want, which was against the human rights.  Few states were ant-slavery, but most of southern-states supported slavery. Even the Constitution had been changed by several amendment. In the 14 th amendment slavery was abolished.

In second floor  found the study of Dr. Dutchmen’s on human’s facial expressions. It was immersed that even in that time , people acknowledged  the psychology of human; there were several facial expressions and I think it was the starting of  the today’s psychology.

The lost museum  is the important place that documented most of the past histories about New York City and  about The United States.In my opinion, the strongest part is that it has maintained a serial sequence of past events and years, and a little details about those event. The weakest part is, it  was not well organized, at least to me. Some pictures needed more details.
