The Art and Architecture – Part II
by Dr. White on July 31, 2024
Dr. White concludes Part Two of his commentary on “Art and Architecture” by describing how Waugh’s love for baroque art as a young man was reflected in the character of Charles Ryder the painter. White also points up the impact art had on Ryder’s love affair with Julia, a liaison he characterizes as a long, adulterous, sinful relationship. And in spite of his distaste for television in general, White heaps effusive praise on the Masterpiece Theatre production of Waugh’s classic opus, Brideshead Revisited.
