Symbols of Lives Past: the Rambova Collection
KUED · 1980
"'Symbols of Lives Past: The Rambova Collection' is a half hour film about the fascinating collection of Egyptian antiquities donated to the Utah Museum of Fine Arts by Natacha Rambova, exotic wife of Rudolph Valentino. She became a research scholar in symbolism and comparative religion. She collected artifacts that, to her, were tangible symbols of man's search for deity and everlasting life. Some of the pieces are very old - 3500 B.C. "The artifacts are of specific interest, not only for their antiquity, but also for their symbolic nature."--1980 Peabody Awards entry form.
