Mystic Nativity

BBC One
on BBC One London

by SANDRO BOTTICELLI
A programme about one of Botticelli's finest pictures, now hanging in the National Gallery, London. Written and presented by Edwin Mullins
Painted in Florence about 1500, the Mystic Nativity is a remarkable blend of the natural and supernatural in which the Virgin and Child in the humble manger are surrounded by an astonishing variety of humans and angels. But an incomplete inscription has puzzled people for centuries and Edwin Mullins offers a possible solution.
