One Hundred Great Paintings

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

Under the theme of Adoration tonight's painting is by Piero della Francesca (c 1415-1492) The Resurrection at Borgo San Sepolcro, Italy
Still preserved in the artist's birthplace, this breathtaking fresco depicts the risen Christ; an uncomfortable, but masterly impression of death itself vanquished, of time losing its tyranny.

(Tomorrow: 'The Birth of Venus' by Botticelli)
