Description
Hailed as "the best talker on art since Lord Clark gave us Civilisation", Sister Wendy Beckett is also the star of two hit PBS series, Sister Wendy's Odyssey and Sister Wendy's Grand Tour.-- In this companion volume to the television show, Sister Wendy visits the finest art treasures and museums in Edinburgh, Oxford, London, and Cambridge.-- Casting her expert eye over art from six centuries, from the society portraits of Van Dyck to David Hockney's nudes, she sheds modern light on classic works, while illuminating the historic influences that have shaped art today.
