Directed by David Bickerstaff (UK, 2023, 93 min.). Presented with Open Captions.

For many great artists, the garden has long been considered a desirable subject for the expression of color, light, and atmosphere. Claude Monet is perhaps the most well-known painter of gardens, but other greats such as Van Gogh, Pissarro, Matisse, and Sargent all viewed the garden as a meaningful focus for their talents. The work of these great artists, along with many others, featured in a major 2016 exhibition, 鈥淧ainting the Modern Garden,鈥 at London鈥檚 Royal Academy.
 
This dazzling film takes a magical journey from the gallery to the gardens鈥攖o Giverny, Seeb眉ll, and other glorious grounds favored by artists. Discover how early-20th-century artists designed and cultivated their own gardens to explore contemporary utopian ideas and motifs of color and form.
 
鈥淎 ravishing joy from start to finish.鈥 鈥Guardian
