The story of an unforgettable meeting is always a gift for artists and writers alike. This well-illustrated weekly series will bring us face to face with paintings, poetry and fiction in which fame, beauty, myth, history and the human spirit bring people together in such dramatic circumstances that they, and we, are left thinking that never before have we seen, or read, anything quite like it.
Is the idea only ‘for the birds’ that a human being can be transformed into some one or something else or does it have a direct bearing on our lives? Ovid’s great poem is more than mere magicking, even if it did enchant Raphael, Tiepolo, Velasquez, Caravaggio, Poussin, and almost every English poet since Chaucer.
But why did it?
