1 ~~~ Hi from Rick: The Happiest Art Teacher in the World ~~~ Rick Steves
Dear Traveler,
All alone with my TV crew in a monastery in Milan, our attendant let us plug in our lights.
The colors on Leonardo's fragile Last Supper fresco popped like never before.
And, as our camera rolled, I thought "The happiest art teacher in the world? That might just be me."
Why? My team and I just completed what feels like the capstone of a lifetime of TV production: 360 minutes of what we're calling Rick Steves Art of Europe.
This six-hour miniseries — which tells the story of European art, from pre-historic caves to Picasso — premieres this month on public television airing in nearly every city in the country. (Check your local station listings for details.)
Imagine the joy of putting this sweep through art history together:
Being a teacher, so eager to share your love of art, free to work in galleries filled with the most beautiful work that ever graced a canvas.
