Meet Saul of Tarsus, who is having a very bad day at work. We’ll find out what (or who) is causing all this commotion and how picking a fight with the wrong guy led Saul into an unexpected career change.
And we’ll also talk about the young, impatient Tintoretto who, like JMW Turner, loved to thumb his nose at convention.
