Awesome thanks

Bernini and Michelangelo were two of the greatest sculptors of all time.

You never forget the first time u see his work... like all great art.

Whoa ! LOTS of mispronunciations ! 😮

15: 47. He was talking bout a more. Those children was by moors he even called them ugly. Meaning black. Probably. The Florentine woman. He said they was made in the dark. Just saying.

Who was the black man in the picture and why is he wearing all white. He was leadership I bet he was overthrowed by the inquisition

Acts chapter 10 say that Jesus was hung in a tree. Where and why is the cross in the picture

Just say no to tha annoying British AI accent, common to all these videos. Superiority expressed through education.

Genre of grotesque

Disturbingly vivid

The music drove me bonkers and almost ruined a wonderful documentary.

A major reason that his backgrounds were 'dark' was to save time painting any extraneous detail.

All I can think of is Dead Can Dance.

I enjoyed your video, I like the narrative.

Imagine what he could with an IPad, and Photoshop.

Impossible! Thank you for this feat of sheer magic!

Excellent documentary. I enjoyed every second of it.

18:32 Pay attention to the cross shape - this is the correct cross, how it really was, not that thing in the modern churches

Apparently, you didn't check your pronunciations before filming.

Caravaggio pierced his opponent’s femoral artery with his dueling sword, causing him to bleed to death in a very short time. The nature of the injury, close to Tomassoni’s groin, may suggest that Caravaggio intended to wound his opponent sexually. Wounds were meaningful in the honour culture of the time, so, for example, a facial wound might be inflicted to avenge an insult to reputation, or loss of face, while a genital wounding or attempted castration might mark a dispute over a woman. Caravaggio and Tomassoni may still have been competing over Fillide Melandroni, or perhaps they had argued over Tomassoni’s wife-the presence of Tomassoni’s two brothers-in-law as seconds gives some credence to the latter hypothesis. Whatever the cause, the killing would have a profound effect on the rest of Caravaggio’s life.

Italy wasn't a thing yet

46:20 Okay, I love you but this panel is about as ambiguous as purchasing tissues and lotion.

The mobile photo would have twisted his nipples

BRAVO! Jeroen! There is one Burgundy, that still draws breath...

I realize that there might....JUST MIGHT.... be a not-so-subtle statement Caravaggio was making as I examine the thumbnail picture a little more carefully than I have ever done before of that particular painting....The "statement"-- much more pornographic than "spiritual" or even "religious". But then again-- my comment here COULD be an indication as to where MY OWN MIND has resided** for quite a while, and even though my mind has climbed OUT of it, it still stumbles into it waaaay more than a man of my age should be stumbling into such a place....I mean I aint exactly a 21 year old enlisted soldier or college FRAT BOY anymore.🙄😶 ** The proverbial "gutter"

Is this a computer reading the text? .Since it cannot even pronounce correctly the name of the artist. It is not boucher...but pronounced booshay.

Great quality presentation overall. Thanks for the upload. It made me wonder about the restoration process and the removal of not only dirt build-up but actual paint layers during in the "cleaning" process. Can this happen? For example, In the Adoration of the Magi 46:33 , some of the more subtle modelling that seems to be present in the original work is no longer apparent in the restored version. I can understand that the deep mid-tones of the yellowing and dirt in the orignal may create the illusion of shadow detail that isn't there however there are a few areas where I question this. Look at the shadow underneath the arch in the far upper left side of the painting and on the face of the supposed self-portrait in the lower right where the modelling of shadow around the jaw and cheek blending into the region around the mouth and chin appears to have been lost completely and as a result much of the character of that portrait has been lost. I’m not an expert but perhaps some of this subtle shading was achieved with extremely thin and delicate, semi-transparent glazes and therefore more vulnerable to accidental removal? Maybe someone else has more to say on the subject? I appreciate what might be gained from restoration of a piece like this however it may not be without its downsides. I’d love to hear what someone with more experience on the subject has to say about this.

Wow. Great info. Thanks for sharing.

Also remember that hashish was legal in edible lozenges and by itself. Alice B.Toklas put her recipe for hashish fudge in her cookbook. This was the famous "Alice B.Toklas' cookbook". She described it as just right for a get together on a rainy afternoon. Her recipe is for a very strong cannabis edible. Modigliani took hashish lozenges all day long. That and the absinthe he drank destroyed his liver and bankrupted him. It finally killed him. The drugs that Amedeo Modigliani took distorted his paintings.

People now have minimized the effects of drugs on artists. Many paintings were described as being painted in Absinthe during the Eighteen hundreds. Many painters drank absinthe, a liquor with a narcotic called Thujone mixed with the extract of Calamus a root containing the non-amine precursor to TMA-2, at 147 proof, Absinthe is a very strong hallucinogenic and narcotic liquor. Real Absinthe is banned now as it attacks the liver in two ways. The early impressionists drank absinthe. They painted many pictures called "The Absinthe drinker". Look at them.

In his day drugged wine was the fashion. Like super Absinthe containing TMA -2. This is a drug so strong it was a chemical warfare agent. This liquor was made by extracting TMA-2 (Trimethoxy-amphetamine)from a plant and then dissolving it in alcohol to be163 proof alcohol. This makes a very strong hallucinogenic liquor. I have done this and would never take it again. Though many of my friends liked it when used in small amounts. It does attack the liver, which is what Caravaggio was hospitalized for and then died of. He died young using this drug.

Of course you know he was known by his friends as Bish Bash .

Many artists of his time and after picked up his style and painted in his genre. This was just as the mini-ice age began to take hold in Europe.

Intetesting.

In his day: purposely perverse; decidedly demonic. In 2024: screwy and momentarily amusing.

A time when the old ideas were strong, yet the renaissance gave artists the tools to express and understand IE ABSOLUTE TORTURE lol

I can’t stand the super heavy religious stuff. But I appreciate that anyone who would dare to paint that much of their interpretation and feeling into such doctrinally official and sacred subject matter HAS to have some level of irreverence inside of them. Otherwise how dare they? Who are you to add anything to this?

I think this is possibly an AI created youtube channel. (Nothing wrong with that, just saying) Although I enjoyed the documentary, there's something about it that doesn't feel right. Anyone else notice this?

This specker dos'nt know his ass from a hole in the ground a total insult to Lautrec..

Such a waste of money and resources, making the history of this person a complete and non sense bored and shameful narrative, you promotes another step for never evolving, for maintaining a nationalist and non sense narrative

Rub bish

Nationality italian? 😂😂😂😂 so what happen in 1859 then? Garibaldi,anyone? 😂😂 also Vinci is a town, not a surname, his surname is ROVIRA( Rovere)

Just hundreds of years ahead of his time. The vignettes stick in your memory, reminding you of the vastness of the human mind.

Some people glorify vulgarism...

This is an astonishingly revealing documentary. I'm increasingly disturbed by the dissonance caused by such a pious artist producing what is essentially blatant sin porn in such exquisite photographic detail. His skills are extraordinary. Still, I call it SIN PORN that lets the viewer feel like they are superior to other sinners.

the once in a lifetime experience to see Bernini's sculpture at Borghese gallery...speechless.
