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.
Can a painting’s single glance read the disposition towards us of the ruler into whose presence we are ushered? Velasquez, van Dyck, Tischbein, Veronese, Rubens, Delacroix and Ford Madox Brown hold their breath in the presence, as do Marco Polo, the Nibelungenlied, the Gawain poet, Wyatt, Pushkin, Tolstoy and Calvino.
