Great Art on Screen- PERUGINO: ETERNAL RENAISSANCE

 

Regarded by many of his contemporaries as the leading painter associated with the revival of Italian art at the end of the 15th century, Pietro Perugino was widely praised for introducing a style of painting characterized by a unique mastery of perspective, line, and the color. This visually rich documentary leads the audience on a guided discovery of the artist's harmonious work. Perugino employs a perfect balance between humans and nature, realism and idealism, as seen in paintings such as The Delivery of the Keys in the Vatican's Sistine Chapel, Lamentation over the Dead Christ in the Galleria Palatina in Florence, and the Pietà and Agony in the Garden in the Uffizi Gallery.

Runtime: 1h20m
