Thanks for posting this wonderful upload. Matthew Collings is a magnificent broadcaster who shows great respect and understanding for both his subject and his own modern audience. He always manages to strike a fine balance between theoretical, analytic and biographic exposition.
This is a great series. It emphasizes that beauty and pleasure are just as important as shock and angst. The latter is our present Salon art. Perhaps beauty will make a comeback.
Thanks for putting this up. I too watched all 10 straight through and enjoyed it thoroughly. I have long been an avid reader of Collings's diary pieces in Mod Painters. I'd love see more of his stuff on video!
Pauvre Renoir, Bazille and, oh, so many others forgotten! ... Pauve Cezanne ...
