One reason I became a historian is the joy of encountering moments in the past that are foreign, yet also oddly familiar. These moments seem to ripple outward, lapping up against the present in unexpected ways.

Watch Netflix at home or catch a film in the theaters, and you’ll get the same washed-out color grade on either screen. Glance at the logos of the world’s largest companies, and you’ll notice a shrinking palette.
