I am tempted to say it's the greatest sculpture ever created.

Hope you post the video of linear perspective next, great video. Love this and reminds me of what I studied in art classes some years ago. Very informative!

Saw it for the first time in Vienna some weeks ago. Probably my favorite Vermeer. A real masterpiece.

I"m bummed that Carel hasn't put anything up on youtube lately. I appreciate his knowledge and I''ve learned a lot from his information of each work of art he has commented on- many of which I have made trips to see. But I don't know anything about instagram or care about facebook, so I guess I'll have to plod on without Carel's excellent insights. :(

I was blessed as a 12 year old on class trip to New York worlds fair in 1860's. We were on a conveyor belt that went all the way around it. It is gigantic! It is amazing & I was awstruck. It is gorgeous,every vein in visable. The most beautiful work of are of all times! I will never forget the feelings invoked when looked at it.what a beautiful tribute to our Lord & his mom. ❤🎉 today is June 21sr 2024 & I😢 am almost 73 but will never forget!

I’ve been following you on Instagram for quite some time and so happy to find you here. I’m subscribing.❤

I love this channel! Thank you for these excellent videos! I hope you are doing well and will come back and share more Art Stories with us!

Of ALL I've seen on this Portrait...NO 1 has picked up on the fact, that she is wearing..A BELT...IF she Was Pregnant, she would Not be wearing a leather belt. Nor Does she have the increasing bust of a pregnant woman. Looking at the Large pile of clothe on the floor, pulling up All that Heavy clothe, to give a look at .."see all the fur lining my skirts(s)" , as u can also see a blue skirt underneath. That WOULD make a LARGE bulk in front of her. Plus the large elaborate bed behind them also would have spoken of their wealth. The Oranges, would they not have been available Only to the wealthy that could afford "Orangeries" to grow them in?

I love this painting and did my own versions of this scene only recently, but I'm still in awe of Rembrandt's genius. Thank you for this video

Nice Description . Great painting .

Love your videos! Been binge watching and learning so much! Wonderful work. Thank you and Cheers

Very interesting video! Thank you

Thank You!

Everyone should watch this on a big screen! It is a treat for the eyes! Thank you so much for your excellent work!

I would have liked to know how much these pictures run for the price?

I have only recently discovered these rare female painters around the Renaissance period! Fascinating! She was indeed exceptionally talented.

Thank you so much for these videos which I just discovered this morning. I enjoy them so much. Looks like you haven't posted in a year so hope you are doing well.

Did Waterhouse ever address why he painted 2 out of the 3 with the lady having jet black hair and her in the boat with red hair?

Very lucky woman St. Teresa........She could experience multiple orgasms!!!!!!! Reply

Amazing recount!

It is truly the most extraordinary experience, to see the human condition expressed in such a way is beyond words ,the beauty is beyond words, Mary is young looks the same age as her Son it's as if she knows her destiny is to lose him

Would you mind talking about an artist which goes with the Early Dutch Primitives: Schongauer ?

How I miss your precious videos, I'm reading the divine comedy and I found myself thinking how I would like to hear you talk about some works in museums that were inspired by Dante, or talk about Gustav Dore or William Blake. I learn so much from you, here are my humble suggestions, but above all, thank you very much because for your content.

Supposedly Lady Godiva is an ancestor of mine according to my mom's ancestry research. 😊

This is not how you do a documentary, you're constant stuttering is a pain , you need to do more research and make a script before making such videos please note

Thank you very much. I am an African. I love poetry and art. Your lesson has made it easy for me to understand the Lady of Shallot better.

Great video, thank you.

Here's a video I made of my interpretation of the great Italian 15th century painter Paolo Veronese's masterpiece "NOZZE DI CANA" that you inquired about on my brochure. Veronese's original painting is a sublime and massive (6.77 m × 9.94 m (267 in × 391 in) canvas that was painted in 1563 during the Renaissance. The French under the command of the young Napoleon Bonaparte, tore the artwork from the wall of the monastery of San Giorgio Maggiore in 1797 as part of their plunder of Venice. The painting is now housed in the Louvre Museum where it keeps company in the same grand exhibition hall as the Mona Lisa. I put together a short slide show of my creation of "NOZZE DI CANA" ( 80" x 55" oil on linen, price upon request) that I think you will enjoy. I also perform the music: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g5WTlqqEmq14rbc CIAO! Tony www.tonygreen.net

This robbery was the same as when 'The Concert' by Johannes Vermeer was taken. A mention from my first novel. Yet to be found (tho a different end for the Vermeer). At the time of publication, there were 2 prisoners who claimed they knew the whereabouts of the Vermeer but those claims were unsubstantiated. Caused a lot of stir, however.

The Painting is beautifull ,en het was een interessant verhaal .✋❤️

Brilliant

These were some great closeups. I never realized his paint application was so chunky. Awesome!

It is so hilarious the end of this video, very funny and great way to tell stories! Hope to watch soon another new one, thanks

She is getting dressed after a transaction and getting back to work.

St. Steven, the first martyr, was deacon.

The child is the god Telesphorus.

A cavalier can also be a "gallant" or a "ladies' man" -- which is suitable enough.

Thank you

Great video, thank you!

I could hug you!!! It drives me insane that so many "art historians" refer to Waterhouse as a Pre-Raphaelite!!! His manner of painting is the direct opposite of theirs. What are they thinking of? Are they blind???? I must add, though, that the majority of Waterhouse's paintings have classical subject matter, not medieval. He was a true academic painter, albeit one of the most brushstroke-y.

An excellent video! Thanks!!!!

Why would you compare Fra Angelico's Annunciation -- with is tempera on wet plaster in a discussion on oil painting by Jan van Eyck. It's beyond apples and oranges It's idiotic. It is like comparing Dante Alighieri to Luther.

The wealthy Canon suffered from polymyalgia rheumatica, giant cell arteritis, which is evident in the bulging arteries on his temple, and the obviously stiff neck. It's a genetic disease that is common amongst Scandinavian heritage people. Today, it's easily treated with steroids. People suffering with it have cluster headaches, blurred vision, sore and stiff joints, and suffer a great deal.

great job

It’s by far the most exquisite, graceful, divine sculpture I’ve ever experienced…Even just for that going to St Peter’s was worth it…

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this painting! It's my favorite and this period in art is for me, one of the most beautiful. ❤

Last night ganap ok lang na dai piro proud me sa imong performance

I was 12 when I first saw it, tbh I was bored at the museum because I wasn’t really interested in art at the time, but when I saw that painting… I stood there for like 20 minutes completely mesmerized. I don’t know how to describe the feeling, but I felt so connected. What a wonderful story!! (And wonderfully taught)

That was a very good explaination Thank you P.S.: Just found your channel and now you have a new subscriber

So glad I found your channel!!
