Renaissance: The Blood and the Beauty explores the lives of three rival artists - Michelangelo, Leonardo and Raphael – who created seductively beautiful works of art during an age of violence and upheaval.

Featuring contributions from contemporary artists Antony Gormley, Alison Lapper, David LaChapelle, a host of experts and a star turn from Charles Dance as the older Michelangelo, this landmark series reveals how some of history's greatest works of art, from Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa to Michelangelo's David, emerged from an era of brutality and bloodshed.

III. Redemption

As Michelangelo sets to work on the Sistine Chapel, his rival Raphael is working on the Pope's private apartments just a few hundred metres away. Each man is determined to outdo the other and win the favour of the Pope.

Meanwhile, Raphael unveils the School of Athens: a work of iconic beauty that casts Julius II as the inheritor of the wisdom of the classical world, with the figures of Plato and Aristotle surrounded by great thinkers.
