The Private Life of a Masterpiece

Season 6 Episode 2: Salvador Dalí: Christ of Saint John of the Cross

This extraordinary crucifixion scene - inspired by a weird mix of Spanish mysticism and nuclear physics - is often called the 20th century's greatest religious painting. Yet the artist was a notorious blasphemer whose work had provoked outrage in the Catholic Church.
