Description 1 online resource (53 minutes)
Summary Long closed to foreigners due to its proximity to Chinese Tibet, the treasures of the kingdom of Nepal were discovered ten years ago. Luigi Fieni, a renowned Italian painter of sacred art, was put in charge of restoring the temple paintings of the capital. Faced with the enormity of the challenge, he had the idea of asking local farmers for their help. From simple farmers, he turned them into artists as they gradually rediscovered the culture of their ancestors
