Painting the Holy Land with Lachlan Goudie (2018 - 2018)

Episode 1

In the first episode, Lachlan follows Jesus's last days on earth, travelling from the north of what is now Israel to Jerusalem. It is a pilgrimage that millions undertake and a story of love and suffering that has inspired some of the world's most remarkable masterpieces. Lachlan has always wondered what it might be like to visit and paint the actual sites where the Bible stories took place. He explores the Holy Land for himself, sketching and painting the people and landscapes he sees there - looking afresh at its sacred sites and bustling streets. Along the way, in a series of surprising encounters, Lachlan meets locals who have their own take on daily life in the Holy Land.
