Inventors, Artists & Composers Library Description

The brilliant lives of 6 inventors, 6 artists, and 6 composers come to life in this collection of award-winning, live-action DVDs!

In each special, the featured inventor, artist, or composer crosses paths with a young person. From their encounters comes stories that educate and entertain both parents and children alike.

In this exciting 18-DVD collection produced from Devine Entertainment, your children will learn

  • how Albert Einstein, a German physicist, developed the theory of relativity
  • how Thomas Alva Edison invented the light bulb in addition to the early phonograph and the first industrial research lab
  • why Leonardo da Vinci is considered to be one of the greatest painters of all time, having created the “Mona Lisa,” “The Last Supper,” and “The Vitruvian Man”
  • why Galileo Galilei is often referred to as the “father of modern astronomy,” the “father of modern physics,” and the “father of science”
  • how Sir Isaac Newton determined the three laws of motion referred to today as “Newton’s laws of motion”
  • how Marie Curie—the first woman to be awarded a Nobel prize and the first woman in France to complete her doctorate degree—discovered radium and polonium
  • how Mary Cassat established herself as an American painter and printmaker
  • how Francisco Goya’s work provided a model for later generations of artists such as Manet and Picassco
  • why French-born Edgar Degas is regarded as one of the founders of Impressionalism
  • why the term “Impressionism” is derived from one of Claude Monet’s painting Impression, Sunrise
  • why self-taught Winslow Homer is considered a preeminent figure in American art most famous by his marine subjects
  • why Rembrandt (Harmenszoon van Rijn) is generally considered one of the greatest painters and printmakers in European art history and the most important in Dutch history
  • how German-born George Frideric Handel’s work helped lead the transition from the Baroque to the Classical era
  • why Johann Sebastian Bach is regarded as one of the greatest composers of all time
  • that  Italian musical composer Gioachino Rossini wrote more than 30 operas
  • about the life of French composer and pianist Georges Bizet
  • why Franz Liszt is considered to be one of the greatest pianists in history, despite the fact that no recordings of his playing exist
  • why Johann Strauss, Jr. is haunted by constant pressure to outdo himself with each new composition he creates
