The Spanish American war benefited William Randolph Hearst in many ways. He owned much the logging industry which made the paper he printed his newspapers 📰 making him a very wealthy man. Then in a ghoulish act of greed he purchased much art and Spanish icons including valuable memorabilia from their culture for pennies on the dollar acquiring millions of dollars in wealth. Robbing them blind. He had no use for much of the art so he stored on a dock in San Simeon California located on the beach below Hearst Castle where it sits today. You can see it on a dock when you drive on the 101.
Interesting, knew about forests but not him buying this art. We have some truly evil people at the top. Thank you for posting this. It adds more to my article, I appreciate it
If you are ever in California and have time visit Hearst Castle. You learn all about his collections. He even had exotic animals like zebras I think imported from Africa. Today, you can see zebras all around the foothills of San Simeon. It’s a fascinating tour snd beautiful especially this time of year it looks like Ireland. It’s isolated, overlooking the ocean.
