For Sixth Forms: Men and Gods: 5: The Artist as Creator

BBC Television
on BBC Television

Written and narrated by Dr. John Broadbent.
During the Italian Renaissance the status of the artist developed from that of an often anonymous artisan: in many cases the artist came to be regarded as an inspired individual whose fame could spread beyond his own country. This last programme, unlike the earlier ones in the series, concentrates on a single work by one artist - the frescoes on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in Rome by Michelangelo.
