Brian Sewell - A Moving Farewell, from his Grand Tour

Brian Sewell (1931 - 2015) was an English art critic. He wrote for the London Evening Standard and had an acerbic view of conceptual art and the Turner Prize. The Guardian described him as "Britain's most famous and controversial art critic", while the Standard called him the "nation’s best art critic".
Grand Tour (TV Series 2008)
Brian Sewell, Britain's poshest art critic embarks on the most famous journey in the world. From C17 - C19, Britain's well-to-do considered the Italian 'Grand Tour' - the trip through Ancient and Renaissance Italy - an essential part of a rounded education. Brian first did the 'Grand Tour' exactly 50 years ago - so for him this is also a journey into his own past. A beautiful, complicated, funny journey.

So erudite yet modest. Miss you, Brian.

Yes, goodbye Brian. Much missed 😢

At the end, Brian's courteous "thank you" to the boatman is somehow redeeming of his waspish persona.
