This protrait of "the Divine Guido" considers his paintings in the light of his time, his teachers and rivals, and his belief that an artist’s pictorial concept, style, and technical skills were the means by which a message of divine grace could be revealed. Magnificent photography illuminated by the search for both artistic and art historical themes is strengthened by scholarly narration. (28 minutes)
