《法国蔚蓝海岸：名画的历史 第一季》是一部由英国地区于2013年出品的记录类综艺。该片由现代著名作家担任编剧，Spike Geilinger亲自指导拍摄。主要演员包括Richard E Grant等英国著名影星。Richard E Grant follows in the footsteps of artists who he lived, loved and painted on Frances Cote dAzur.Painting ParadiseRevealing the intertwined relationship between modern art and the development of the French Riviera as an international tourist hen, Grant explores how Impressionist painters Cezanne, Monet and Renoir first discovered the region in the 19th century when the newly-built railway arrived there. Captivated by the light and colour of this undiscovered landscape, the painters immortalised its shores on canvas and in doing so aertised the sage beauty of the region. For Neo-Impressionists Paul Signac and Henri Edmund Cross the region provided a vision of utopia, while for Henri Matisse the vivid colours of the area inspired him to adopt a new palette and in doing so set modern art en route to abstraction. With visits to LEstaque, St Tropez and Nice, Grant maps the pogress of the region from cultural backwater to bohemian hot spot.The Golden EraRichard explores how modern art and the Riviera grew up together when Frances Cote DAzur became the hedonistic playground and experimental studio for the great masters of 20th century painting. With Henri Matisse and Pablo Picasso resident on the coast, other artists from Jean Cocteau to Henri Lartigue, Raoul Dufy to Fernand Leger and Francis Picabia to Sergei Diaghilev were drawn to the area. As transatlantic liners brought Americas super-rich to the region, art and celebrity became integrally intertwined as cultural gurus and multi-millionaires all partied on the beach. In an era of sunshine and bathing, of cinema and fast cars, of the Ballet Russes and Monte Carlo casinos, Grant discovers the extraordinary output of what became briefly the worlds creative hub.
