The "Private Life of a Masterpiece" series of documentary releases systematically relays the tales behind history's best known and most-revered works of art. Per its title, this particular volume hones in exclusively on three Christmas-themed paintings: by Jan Van Eyck's <I>The Annunciation</I> <I>Pieter Breughel</I>'s <I>"The Census at Bethlehem,"</I> and Paul Gauguin's <I>God's Child</I>.
