The fascinating stories behind the art that has shaped three dazzlingly beautiful cities. Amsterdam, St. Petersburg and Barcelona are visited by tourists in their droves who tread well-worn paths around great galleries, palaces and plazas. But in this series, art historian Janina Ramirez and art critic Alastair Sooke reveal the essence of each city in a fresh and fascinating way by going off the beaten track to visit their own selection of must-see sights. In Barcelona they reveal a city defined by the Catalan struggle for full independence. In Amsterdam, they explore the contradictions at the heart of the city that fueled masters like Rembrandt and Vermeer. And in St. Petersburg, they discover how art has been harnessed to enhance the power of leaders.
