Abstract
"A mystery within a mystery, the painting The Garden of Earthly Delights is the most famous and intriguing work by Early Netherlandish master Hieronymus Bosch. Through unique exclusive access granted by the Prado Museum - such as witnessing the processes of X-raying and restoring the painting - the film explores unanswered questions about the enigmatic painting as well painter himself, on the occasion of the 500th anniversary of his death."--Container

This is a very interesting film with extensive close-ups and details of the triptych. The film would be better shown as shorter clips to support lectures, as the analysis is a bit weak at times and the historical information is minimal. It is really about looking deeply at the image and trying to inhabit the painter's perspective.
