A series about the visual arts, exploring stories and themes by focusing on the locations where the art was produced. The Great Indoors
The story of artists who paint the studio or room in which they work over and over again. One of the most fascinating of them - and now one of the most expensive - is Danish artist Vilhelm Hammershoi , who created more than 60 paintings of his Copenhagen apartment in the first decade of the last century. Robert McNab visits
Hammershoi's dwelling and tries to find out what these introverted artists of the interior were telling us about themselves or, indeed, ourselves. Producer David Perry
