LEONARDO
Leonardo, presented by Alan Yentob, is the portrait of a genius of extraordinary diversity who lived a roller-coaster life of success and failure; who associated with the most powerful figures of the day, yet remained an outsider; who fought a succession of bitter rivalries and who suffered a personal battle to come to terms with a world of demons.
Through modern technology and dramatic reconstruction, the colourful life and amazing achievements of this extraordinary artist, scientist and engineer are revealed. Myths are exposed, paintings assessed and inventions tested in compelling re-evaluations that reveal the true nature of his genius.
The series follows the highs and lows of Leonardo's life: learning his craft at the heart of the Renaisance movement and facing execution at the stake; his rivalry with Michelangelo and the unveiling of his masterpiece The Last Supper. State-of-the-art technology is utilized to reveal the complex thinking behind his great paintings and for the first time his parachute, armoured warfare vehicle, glider, underwater diving suit and other inventions as built and tested.
THE DIVINE MICHELANGELO
Five hundred years ago, Michelangelo created three of the art world's greatest icons: the statue of David, the painted ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican, and the dome of St Peter's in Rome. This revealing drama documentary traces his development from angry young man to pride of Rome.
