S9 • E8 Feb 20, 2009 30mBurt cruises the French Riviera and Provence along a Mediterranean coastline that made it a playground for the rich and famous. The region is filled with ancient ruins, 2000 year old towns, unique shops and good things to eat and drink. The warm weather, intense sunlight, and magnificent scenery attracted artists like Van Gogh, Cezanne, Picasso and Matisse. Burt takes us to the places were Van Gogh painted and contrasts the paintings with today's landscape.
