Mary Beard's Forbidden Art

Vile Bodies (1x1)

Data emisji: Lut 03, 2022

In the first programme of this two-part series, Mary explores some of the challenging ways that artists have shown the human body. She begins with the Romans, heading to the British Museum to discuss a statue of the god Pan having sex with a she-goat, and from there moves through art from the Renaissance to the present day portraying sex, death, violence and beyond.
