Another was the great Ansel Adams, who like Weston had grown out of an early Pictorialist phase and fully embraced modernism in photography.

No wonder photography finally came to be recognised as an art form; the misleading influence of painting had been overcome at last.

You've seen this painting a thousand times before.

It's American Gothic, painted by Grant Wood in 1930, one of the world's most famous works of art.

The Arc de Triomphe in Paris is one of the world's most recognisable landmarks. But... what actually is it?

Here's one clue: it has a statue of Napoleon as a Roman emperor being crowned by the goddess of victory.

And they also sailed to Britain, Spain, Italy, Russia, North Africa, the Middle East, and... Paris.

This is the story of the Viking Age:
