Starting in Italy and following the spread of the wildfire across Europe and beyond, art critic Waldemar Januszczak takes us on a tour of the finest examples of baroque art to be found, and tells the best stories behind those works. In Baroque! From St. Peter's to St. Paul's, Januszczak follows the trajectory of baroque from its beginnings as a Vatican-sanctioned religious art style to its ascendance as the first global art movement. {{http://forums.mvgroup.org/release.images/DocFreak08/vlcsnap-2017-02-24-00h04m09s857.jpg?200&nolink }} **Part 2 Spain and Netherlands** Waldemar Januszczak follows Baroque to its dark heart in Spain, focusing on the route of the pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela. Spanish painter Velazquez renders an incestuous royal family in grotesque glory, while Zurbaran paints the fervent ecstasy of martyrs and monks. Then he explores Baroque art in Netherlands. In Holland, Vermeer and Rembrandt break new ground with intimate portraits of locals at work and play, while Rubens pursues voluptuous passions in Belgium. ==See Also== ==Trailer== ,,Full Version Available Upon Request,, {{ youtube>GrVvIm5evYk }} \\ {{tag>HD Art Baroque Painting Italy Spain Netherlands England BBC SER BBC_-_Baroque!_from_St._Peters_to_St._Pauls_(2009) 2009 Ar02/17 Name}}
