From 1973, Kijû Yoshida produced Beauty of beauty, an enterprise of unequaled scope in the history of cinema on artistic forms, as scrupulously documented as it is open to the imagination. Selected from the 94 chapters that make up this worksum, the 20 episodes offered here are devoted to the masters of Western painting. Confronting the works with their geographical and intellectual environment, the filmmaker once again makes hear, in the hollow of the landscapes, in the whites of the painting, the rumor of bygone eras.
