It is about the American painter Andrew Wyeth and the people who inspired his paintings.
The film was part of a series of collaborations between Michael Palin, the director Eleanor Yule and the producer Mhairi McNeill.
[1] Yolanda Zappaterra wrote in Time Out London: "It's a fascinating life, and containing as it does interviews with Helga, Andrew's son and painter Jamie Wyeth, and Andrew himself before his death in 2009.
"[2] The Independent's Gerard Gilbert called the film "unexpectedly absorbing".
[3] John Crace of The Guardian wrote that "Michael Palin in Wyeth's World (BBC2) was a little gem; a one-hour documentary about a 20th-century American painter, Andrew Wyeth, of whom I had never heard, yet which kept me intrigued".
