Hour Two: Charles R. Knight's
Paleo-Art
Many popular images of pre-historic life--including dinosaurs,
mammoths, and sabre-tooth tigers--come from the paintings and
drawings of artist Charles Knight. Knight's work also influenced
scientists' perceptions of these extinct animals. In this hour,
we'll take a look at the life and work of Charles Knight, the
father of prehistoric and wildlife art.
