As long people knows who painted monalisa and other Leonardo arts and no need to fight for it as long they take care of it I'm sure Leonardo don't mind...

Beautiful melodies.

beautiful

What is the name of the song being played?

Funny how it sounds like a lute.

People take the modern Boehm flute for granted but the transverse orchestral flute has a very fascinating history of evolution from wooden conical bore keyless instruments to various configurations of partially keyed instruments and leading up to the modern, fully keyed, cylindrical bore flute. The tone, volume, intonation, and versatility of the instrument changed quite a bit, giving rise to celebrity virtuoso players and all kinds of raucous debauchery at concerts. These sorts of traditional flutes are still made and played by Irish traditional and American folk musicians. It's good to care for and preserve the original pieces as best as we can, and continue playing and maintaining them. They will degrade, rot, and crack if left abandoned in museum drawers for decades.

wonderful and interesting lecture

💚

Although the piano is my all-time favourite instrument, if I had to pick the three most beautiful sounding instruments, it would be the erhu, the harp and the tin whistle/flute.

WE'RE GOING BACK TO LIYUE WITH THIS ONE🗣️🗣️

Vincent is absolutely worst painter and draftsman in history and at same time biggest artist.

I Don't deny he had talent....but they look like....Out of Focus Pictures! 😮😳

Ahora imagina tocar metal con eso y distorsion 😂

Bravo 🍾

Beautiful

Great instrument, great musician!

...and they are not "pictures," they are "paintings"!

I got a little bit bored at about 1:12...I think it was the reading of the notes.

Richard Ormond is so delightful! And of course, Erica Hirshler is fabulous as always. I invite people to consider the *trouble* it was to do all this traveling back then! Even with posh accommodations here and there it was still an ordeal to go from place to place.

I remember struggling with her in Sekiro.

I often use erhu music for practicing Tai chi. Very inspiring

I so appreciate your lectures!! Not being able to get down to Boston, I get to watch them on KZbin…what I like to do is listen to them while painting…thank you!

Lady, you're the bomb! Thank you for being so well prepared instead of just blabbing off the cuff like so many do these days and thank you for speaking at a good, even pace and taking care to enunciate. Also very appreciated is your rich but not snooty vocabulary. And, of course, most important, the talk was very interesting and enlightening. I hope you see this comment!

His work is so much more complicated then people generally give him credit for It wasn’t just an “emotional technique that he somehow channeled“ his use of color shape and brush strokes is masterful. He was a student that dissected works he admired and incorporated those techniques.

Amazing lecture - rare and very objective view on art and science in paintings.

love this talk just the thing about jour kid maby you misread her understanding uderestimating it i do the same thng with certain painters to see their relièf

Thanks a lot for this so claryfing lecture about Moore´s public sculptures.

Very disappointed. First, that white thumbnail is equivalent to saying “nothing worth watching here” on KZbin. This is one reason there are ver few views. MFA needs to seriously update its approach. I gave up after about 30% or so. It is just unwatchable. The content is flat & boring (I don’t need to hear the history of the building, seriously). The images are way, way, way too small. I watched on a tablet & could barely see. On a phone, it would be impossible. The art & the speakers would be minuscule. MFA, you need to look at how V&A, Met, and British Museum does it. Start with a montage. Engage the viewer. Cut out extraneous material AKA edit. Create an ENGAGING thumbnail.

A very interesting person. Talented, yes. But also, he's an explorer. I like that. Thank you.

好吸引人 讓人專注不移 最美的藝能表演 最莊嚴榮重的音樂和言辭 超級喜歡 謝謝所有表演者

Could ben19th Century B.C. Psalteries are ancient-style imstruments.

This must be one of the instrument Nintendo used for a lot of the TOTK music

Kindergarten level talk about some piece of painting ❗️👎

awesome 🎉🎉🎉

Fantastic video, thank you very much for posting this.

Her stone face vs my bass face!

Are these the instruments they play in Mali and other parts of Western Africa I use to listen to a group called tinawarien this sounds similar to the band

What is the name of this song?

Oh, what a full resonance! (I can´t play it, but I just learnt how to spell it)

Claude Cernuschi appears to be a very fine art historian and excellent communicator. Interestingly, Cernuschi has very similar vocal characteristics to Yuval Noah Harari, who is another very fine scholar.

Excellent lecture…talking instead of reading notes…talking about methods and materials instead of artist’s intention, motivation, metaphor…thanks!

Loved looking at the drawings. The speaker is kind of unbearable.

I’m a professional photographer I appreciate Gordon Parks work he told authentic stories in black & white. I always tell people that black & white tells a more intimate story. I’ve shot over 50,000 images, they were shot in color but I had to convert them into black and white so the images would speak to viewers. I’m working on a project in my beautiful city New Orleans, all images will be edited in black and white. When I studied Gordon, I realized we have a lot in common. I always believed that should be photographed in it’s most authentic moments without too manipulation. I’ve had the honor in shooting anything from protest, fashion models and shows, public figures, and just good old American families. I never planned to put all my eggs in one basket because I believe everything has a story even if it’s not breathing. I had the privilege to photograph the Lakota tribe during their fight and the issues they faced at Standing Rock. The tribe just happened to be visiting Iowa at festival I just so happened to be there. It was truly an honor to capture them chanting and beating the drums. I’m so excited about 2025 capture sweet New Orleans in all of her glory.

Is this the reason why Spain stole everything from he West?.... Pathetic.

This is EXCELLENT. I'm sorry I missed this!

Excellent presentation. Art collecting is a strange endeavor, but we Bostonians owe these men a great debt of gratitude and can enjoy the fruits of their efforts every day.
