Beato Angelico - Gli affreschi di San Marco

A brief (and somewhat chaotic) guide to the paintings of Beato Angelico. In this first video, we'll take a quick look at the artist's frescoes inside the Convent of San Marco, trying to understand the world in which he lived and worked, and how that reality influenced his art. Text, face, silly jokes, video editing, and related expletives by Enrico Comar. No artists were harmed in the making of this video, but some may suffer from it...
