Our take
A lush garden where lovers float in bubbles next to extraordinary, many-headed creatures: such is the wild, ecstatic imagination of Hieronymus Bosch. From many angles and expert opinions, this documentary puts the painter’s fantastical triptych, The Garden of Earthly Delights, under the microscope.
