The idea of Heaven on Earth haunts the human imagination.
The story ends with Picasso\'s Fall of Icarus, made for UNESCO in 1958, which already seems to signal - perhaps to prescribe - an age when all futures are dead..
Was it to painting\'s advantage, is Clark\'s question, that in an age of enforced orthodoxy (threats of hellfire, burnings at the stake) artists could reflect on the powers and limitations of religion without putting their thoughts into words? At the heart of the book stands Bruegel\'s ironic but tender picture of The Land of Cockaigne, but also Veronese\'s inscrutable Allegory of Love.
He goes back to the late Middle Ages and Renaissance - to Giotto in Padua, Bruegel facing the horrors of religious war, Poussin painting the Sacraments, Veronese unfolding the human comedy.
