Love the content. Is the sound low? Or is it just me?

But isn't that what the left is promoting

Excellent video! Thank you.

This was really informative, well edited and nicely paced. Very good work! Thank you :)

You should be an art teacher!

Let’s face it, now you are more than merely fascinated.

I see some climate activist taking this as a challenge

I think that different monuments represent different things, and destroying art purely because it's guilty by association in ones eyes is an act that imbodies the evil one wishes to destroy. Also the first vandalization of this sculpture was done by the museum themselves when they pressure washed the original finish off because they think the glory of whiteness is greater than any art.

I think religion poisons everything, and you're from NSW lol.

I think the person who did this is a complete moron.

There is more to this story I learned during a guided tour there. A number of the pieces shattered off during the attack were stolen by onlookers and taken away. The Pope went on the radio and asked the people to bring the pieces back immediately as their souls were in danger. All the pieces were recovered.

Any 1 person trying to dictate to the whole world just because they may believe something is Autocratic.. Think about it.

I want you to take notice if you're one of these weak-willed slow brained people that do stupid shit like attack art to get your message across. Notice that she said "he shouted something about religion and art". I'll guarantee at the time he thought his view was just the end all be all smartest thing anybody had ever thought of. Now realize that whatever the hell he said has gotten mashed down into "he shouted something about art and religion". Nobody gives a fuck what he was trying to get across. 'Nuff said.

That he was an idiot. An artist created a piece spending days, months patiently chiseling, and some crazy zealot destroys it

I remember seeing it in person in 1965 at the New York World's Fair. So glad I got to see it undamaged, but the restoration turned out well!!

I think ppl need to have better manners. Some parents aren’t meant to have children

But when an image of Jesus Christ soaked in urine was displayed as an art, nobody, not even the Vatican condemned it, why? Because no image of Mary was there anyway, only Jesus.

I got to see this in person in 1984, I was 12. It took my breath away. I never knew this happened! Disgusting that someone would do that to such a masterpiece.

Art & History should be protected at all costs !

I'm not even religious, and I love this piece. The ability to carve stone as hard as granite or marble and make it look that realistic is a master of his craft.

I remember seeing this statue at a he worlds fain in nyc in 1964. I wonder if it was the real thing?

Why do the hate Our Lady so much 😢

😅

This is very sad that people would do things like this.The world's gone just to hell on a hand basket.Save art, save lives.Behave yourself. Sincerely kathleen

I think that you should never mention the man’s name who damaged it, nor give any credence to his political cause his name, and Michaelangelo should never be in the same sentence

That is the most moving piece of art I’ve ever been to see. It’s magnificent even removed from a religious context. Especially if you have a child.

I saw that in person in the summer of 1976..... I even reached out and touched it when no one was looking... I have no regrets.....😊❤

I'm of the opinion that anyone who intentionally damages priceless antique works of art should be jailed for a minimum of 5 to 10 years depending on the piece and the amount of damages

What did they do to him?

It’s attempted MURDER. Life in Prison. It’s no longer an Italian patrimony, it’s transcended into a Human Patrimony. It belongs to humanity. A historical testament to Human Creation

I like Michelangelo, and this sculpture is a masterpiece. Small people who destroy beauty for the sake of it are garbage.

I'm always on awe of the beauty that men created and wonder why other men wish to destroy that beauty. This sculpture is breathtaking.

😢😢😢 as an artist who had her personal collection of works destroyed by her jealous sister… I know it’s only a matter of time.

Hol up that was not drawn by Vincent van Gogh??!

Uh hello...No one is Home ! On both accounts 😂

This was so nicely done :') thanks queen

What was the bit about white men? Inventions made or stolen? Wtf.

What a good looking woman!!!!

It's insane that this video doesn't have any comments yet. Thank you for providing so much imagery. If you're more interested in the subject, I'd definitely recommend "Death of an Artist", the podcast. They dedicate an entire season to this with interviews and expose deeper problems within the art world.

What's the name of the sound??

He died the year I was born.

I also have a semi colon on my wrist, I got it about 13 years ago 😍

I used to have that song as a single on cassette when it came out! I'm old lol. Still, this is funny.

I love all of these! I literally just commented on your short about Judith and Abra.

I feel she's portraying really strong women. love this piece, thank you for this.

His wife kicked him out the house whenever he quit being a stock broker and decided to be a painter😂

Pray that this is the last time I have to study for an art exam 😭😭 don’t wanna retake this test bro

Great video!

I got so invested I didn’t even realise it was 5 minutes long lol

My fav artist is Edgar degas❤
