But who was the enigmatic Barocci? Hear from the National Gallery's Director Nicholas Penny and exhibition curators, Carol Plazzotta and Judith Mann (Saint Louis Art Museum), as they reveal more about the celebrated late 16th-century Italian artist, the scope of his talent and imagination, and the universal appeal of his religious subjects.
