Description
Summary:'1000 Masterpieces from the Great Museums of the World' is one of the most successful TV series about art. The original, with improved image quality, takes us on a fascinating journey through the history of art. Comprehensively illustrated and compellingly presented -- the well-known authors of five short art surveys provide a deeper insight into the masterpieces of painting. One of the greatest 20th-century art collections can be found in Venice, at the Palazzo Venier dei Leoni on the Grand Canal. In 1949, the legendary Peggy Guggenheim acquired the unfinished 18th-century Palazzo for use as a residence. Right from the start, she began exhibiting her world-class collection of Cubist, Abstract and Surrealist works -- among them Duchamp's 'Sad young man on a train'. Giacomo Balla: ABSTRACT SPEED PLUS NOISE (1913-14) Marcel Duchamp: SAD YOUNG MAN ON A TRAIN (1911-12) Jean Metzinger: AT THE CYCLE-RACE TRACK (1914) Francis Picabia: VERY RARE PICTURE ON THE EARTH (1915) Emilio Vedova: PICTURE OF THE AGE - BARRIER (1951)
