Iris Cornelia Love (1933-19 April 2020)
Iris Cornelia Love who passed away this weekend was a living legend. Despite being a member of the Guggenheim family, and very much part of New York’s salon life, it is as an archaeologist that she is best remembered. Some have even described her as a female Indiana Jones before Indiana Jones ever existed. Iris Cornelia Love I first heard about Iris Love not in a scientific journal but in a glossy woman’s magazine, SHE.
She was presented as a star seeking the lost sculpture
