TV Show Information

Overview

Documenting the Louvre's study days, in which works by five major artists--Rembrandt, Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, Watteau, and Poussin--were collected together, removed from their frames, and set on easels, replicating the feel of an artist's studio. Curators, historians, restorers, and scientists from around the world came to examine and discuss them in total freedom.
