The National Gallery in London houses one of the world's greatest collections of works by the seventeenth-century painter Diego Velázquez. In this film Leah Kharibian investigates his paintings, both those in the Gallery and elsewhere, and attempts to explain this Spanish master's almost universal popularity.
