The Underappreciated World Of Dark Age Art

This documentary sees art historian Waldemar Januszczak challenge the idea that the Dark Ages were a barren time when civilisation stopped. Journeying through the art of the centuries after Rome's fall, he reveals a period of surprising beauty, skill and invention. The film overturns old assumptions to celebrate a misunderstood age. Engaging and persuasive, it is a rewarding watch for lovers of art and history. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
