Just wonderful - thank you!
thankyou very much
Part 3 now works fine - thank you so much. This documentary - together with some more also from your collection - is slated for a screening at our local Fine Arts Club next month and I'm sure the local art fans will enjoy. May the wise old owl live long and be able to create many more playlists!

(Gladly done )
I love St. Paul du Vence--so did my artist father
Can anyone identify the music at the beginning of Part 3 of The Colourists?
Usually I like Michael Palin’s commentary very much. Sure the bright colors of the azure coast would attract a colorist. The question though is the sort of not seeing distinctive details in the imagery. To me that asks more than a sort of light hearted reference to the quality of light in this area. Why the unity of lack of details to the style? What anchors this work in relative anonymity? What’s the cultural meaning? Certainly the subject matter of rich peoples daily lives and a lot of young women doing dance poses seem of one in that time. But also not very interesting to look at up close. A kind of aesthetic distancing from reality. Not avoiding outside agitation as the rich might want, but instead a sense of the wealthy know beyond surfaces might be interesting. That may be oft putting, but seeing those details would be interesting.
