Description
This genre-defining series explores the history of civilization through the prism of art. Great masterpieces are brought closer and made clearer than ever before, from Cambodia’s majestic Angkor Wat temple to Michelangelo’s exquisite Basilica of St Peter. Inspired by Kenneth Clark’s groundbreaking series, it’s an epic story of passion and struggle, introducing a new generation to classic works created across the continents. Civilisations explore the visual culture of societies from around the globe, revealing alongside the magnificent objects made in the West the wealth of treasures created by other cultures. From the landscape scrolls of classical China and the sculpture of the Olmecs to African bronzes, Japanese prints, and Mughal miniatures. Told by three presenters, each bringing their own skills and perspectives to the series – Simon Schama, Mary Beard, and David Olusoga.
