The nude in art with Tim Marlow The Renaissance The Renaissance.

Streaming video - 2014

If there is one genre of art that seems to have played a greater role than any other, it is the nude. For at least 30,000 years, humans have represented the naked form in a variety of ways. From the ideal to the real, the romantic to the surrealist, there have been almost no end of works devoted to the unclothed human body. This series - presented by writer and broadcaster Tim Marlow - will examine those artworks, the societies that produced them and the artists that made them. In this episode The nude -The Renaissance, marlow travels to england, France and Italy on a lively, visual journey illustrating how the Christain idea of nudity associated with sin was replaced with ideas of nudity being associated with beauty and sensuality. Include...d are Botticelli's 'Birth of Venus, Michelangelo's 'David' and Giotto's 'The Last Judgement'.
