In 1991, after 45 years of the cloistered life, Sister Wendy Beckett stepped out of the convent and into London's National Gallery. Traveling from museum to museum, filmed by the BBC, she shared her immense knowledge about painting and painters, her contemplative insights, and her unorthodox enthusiasm. Seen on PBS. "Bespectacled, bewimpled and with a decided lisp, the 67-year-old woman makes a highly unlikely but entirely likable television guide"-- New York Times. 4 programs, 8 3/4 hrs, 4 DVDs, CC.
