Peter Ackroyd's Venice

The City as Art (1x2)

Data di messa in onda: Set 13, 2009

Peter explores the art and artists that Venice has inspired over the centuries, including Guardi and Canaletto who created the most recognisable views of perhaps the most frequently-painted city in the world. He finds it is the buildings that star in the paintings of Venice; not the people, and explores how the city inspired a number of uniquely Venetian innovations in its artists.
