Abandoned Famous Painter's Home - Hundreds of Paintings Left Behind

[@kayhalliwell4404]

You have a lovely clear speaking voice and you don't overdo the talking. Great video!

[@alliehearst4862]

You by far have the most unique exploring videos . Your commentary is perfectly soft spoken but never boring . Your filming is exceptional and you can tell you put lots of effort into your craft. Stay being you and killin it ,you have so much support :D

[@DarkExploration]

Thank you so much💚

[@NinaRoad]

Oh my. I’m Russian (sorry for grammar, do not really know English) and I write poems, and when I saw the notebook (it even reminds me mine ones!), I was like...wow!!! Fascinating feeling. Extremely. Unfortunately I can barely see the words, but it looks like a man was writing a poem for his wife on their 35th anniversary. The memories are passing by, still warming, We have been married for 35 years, You are still mine Dulcinea, I am still your faithful Don Quijote. Воспоминаний ряд проходит, пламенея, В супружестве с тобой уж 35 год, Ты для меня осталась Дульсинея, А я по-прежнему твой верный Дон Кихот. One of the most romantic and beautiful thing that ever happened to me.Thank you for this!!

[@havencook8200]

Isn’t don quixote a sketch? Maybe he was referring to the sketch. Similar to saying “you are my Juliet and I am your Romeo”. Idk I did a quick 5 minute google so I could be mistaken.

[@eroc22able]

This was my grandpa. Wild to hear because honestly I thought the two of them hated each other lol

[@luckychocolate1650]

If this house belongs to such a famous artist, then the proper people should be contacted so the artwork can be displayed in a gallery or Museum. Just to sit there and to go to waste is a shame. Needs to be viewed by the public.

[@bloobeee]

That was my thought exactly. The amount of salvageable work in there is astounding

[@ohmyscrap]

@@bloobeee I thought the same thing, otherwise they will be destroyed and lost forever.

[@muskndusk]

I'm not sure the video is genuine. Looks like they took a mate's paintings into an urbex.

[@kat42934]

@Gennie Jefferson dude it's abandoned, chill

[@fdfsdfsvsfgsg4888]

None of the art is of any quality whatsoever.

[@archangel5627]

What I always find hard to believe is that family members or even friends didn’t do anything with his paintings and works of art that were left in his workshop.

[@Ohmylantaa]

It makes you wonder how the house looked like when it was filled with people and their laughter..

[@dorisrosa62]

Wrong hands ?? The place is falling apart and about to collapse, the best that could happened to those paintings is that they get sold or taken to a gallery before the place collapse. Or that someone looks for any family members that don't know about these paintings. It's ashame to see all that go to waste.

[@CrystalLynn1988]

I looked into and found this place is in the catskills in NY. I can't find any family but will keep trying.

[@lindaromero1435]

This so sad!! All that mans beautiful work left behind. Does your research show that any one has ownership now? Maybe the state could do something to honor this mans work.

[@combatgirl38]

I became hooked on some of these channels because of all of the abandoned vintage stuff left behind all over the world, but as an artist and collector of vintage/antique art supplies This video has affected me Hugely!! Vandals piss me off as it is but I'd like to knock the blocks off of whomever trashed that first studio! I'm sure to most who don't recognize much more than paint and brushes the objects spilled out everywhere just looked like stuff but I could see a lifetime of carefully collected creative tools strewn everywhere. Were I an explorer this house would test my moral code to its core. In my observation that first art studio looked to belong to a woman and the upstairs possibly to the man-though gender specific findings weren't obvious in that space-unless the first was staged to showcase certain objects that were placed to catch our eye. I'd really like to find other videos posted by anyone else who has been here to get a better look at more of the things that remain, if they're out there. Thank you for bringing us inside this incredible artists home!

[@janae9212]

I'm also hooked on these abandoned places videos and it really upsets me that people go in and destroy things or even the buildings themselves. Just leave them be the way they were so we can all enjoy them!

[@combatgirl38]

Sadly, I've seen 3 other videos taken here and they document the trashing and "explorer" staging of the place. That antique reptile terrarium is now completely Smashed and its contents have been destroyed. The attic studio is inaccessible through the destroyed rubble. If I knew where this was I'd blatantly park a U-Haul truck out front and get to rescuing the bits that remain.

[@carriesnest]

You are by far one of my favorite explorers! You don't talk like a thug, you don't disrespect and you don't play terrible annoying music like some other explorers I've seen. I enjoy your content! It is so sad though to see all that beautiful art just going to waste and rotting just like the home and all the beautiful furniture in it. Thanks for sharing what you do!

[@matthewthomasjames]

I assure you, if he were world renowned, those paintings would have been claimed long ago. But still, they deserve a worthy spot, like in a gallery or on someone's wall who will love and appreciate them.

[@brainstorrming]

8:44 Judging by the style of the poems, the owner of this notebook is a romantic woman. This woman wrote poetry in Russian, referring to some gentleman, and mentioned waiting for 35 years.

[@justpassingthru3186]

Awww that's so sad 😢

[@bloobeee]

It seemed like a very feminine home

[@MekareP]

Someone needs to go and save that art. It should be kept safe. This makes me so sad. 😔

[@laikathunderchild5746]

Yet another fascinating exploration conducted in your usual sensitive & respectful manner. Thanks so much 💚

[@Wine-or5jx]

This in one awesome find ! If possible you could let the local museum know about it so they could save and preserve all the paintings. So sad to see them all abandoned. Great video !

[@singersoul111]

LOVE THIS! thanks so much for sharing this with us all! much love x

[@rainbowbrite4406]

110% know the kids in that picture but for the life of me can’t remember which of my friends posted it as their family. Commenting so I can come back after I figure it out.

[@GirlRiotInspired]

Any luck?!

[@justinweisel3337]

They look familiar, almost like the stock image one of those picture frames would use in the store in the 90s.

[@ritajimmie3361]

Just got to wonder why it is that places are abandoned. It's so sad that millions of dollars spent on homes and belongings are just left to rot away

[@SavannahUrbex]

This is completely insane but I'm so happy you found it! I can understand heirs may not be able to take large furniture, but they should have saved the art. Congrats on 100k!

[@painting_bhawya]

As an artist myself... I feel disappointed about those beautiful artworks. As we all know, art is so underrated in this world. I start to worry about my paintings! What will happen to them after I die!!! But i loved that you found the workshop and explored it. 💜

[@greydoe]

Ohhh - someone should be able to see those paintings. That's amazing. Best explore I've seen in a long, long time.

[@HautePinkFluff]

The picture of the two kids looks more recent than the 1950s.

[@TheDianne888]

Probably his grandchildren.

[@lilvegan]

Vanessa Dugan Yep, and at the end there's a shot of a bunch of magazines, one of which you can see an advertisement for a 90's minivan... I feel like this was abandoned closer to that time frame, considering the condition of everything inside as well.

[@HautePinkFluff]

Yeah I don't understand how this could possible be abandoned since the 1950s and be in that decent condition.

[@MP0813]

Building was 50s. Picture and frame look from mid to late 70s

[@Lithostoic]

He said the house dates back to the 50s, not that it was abandoned in the 50s

[@GlamGal001]

It’s a shame that all that stuff will probably be lost due to decay. I love that you’re trying to protect the property, I wish people would have more respect. Great video.

[@JennyBrett]

Amazing! So much to see here 😍

[@RichieRouge206]

That yacht picture at 5:27 is gorgeous- my heart sank

[@TheDynotuner]

Nice explore... Sad to see so much art & antique's go to waste. You can see the roof is leaking in multiple places. With that being said it won't take long for mother nature to take her toll

[@stephygirl55]

Yaaaasss...I was so excited to see a new video today! Another good one!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@sallya.2412]

Great exploration there. I love the fact how you have respect for the place in not revealing who this famous artist is. Sad the artwork is just sitting there. Something must've happened to leave all that abandoned.

[@patigiddens1314]

So sad. Too bad some family or friend didn't come there are preserve all that work. Thanks great video!!

[@sharonn1853]

Great video again you never disappoint 😊

[@oksnow1008]

Out of all the abandoned placed Ive seen this is a masterpiece worth saving. Id love to clean the place up if I had the chance. The way its left is proper but in a way still so disrespectful. They wouldn’t want the place they stayed and loved to be so horribly ruined.

[@InfamousCrimeLocations]

Congrats on 100k Devin!

[@DarkExploration]

Thank you !

[@septemberquest6393]

Incredible...this guy's artwork should be displayed at some museum....his art tools should be donated to an art school or center...I'm a free lance cartoonist myself and it's a waste to have your family leave stuff like that behind.....you guys get better and better at what you do....I like your style....no loud soundtrack drowning the narrating....no fussing or getting off the subject at hand,....steady camera action and subtle explanation of what is at hand... keep up the good work,guys!👍

[@cindysutton2491]

I find it sad that all the beautiful paintings will just rot away instead of being enjoyed.

[@ShiverzInJapan]

Stunning!! I'd love to find a treasure trove like this. An art gallery in itself!

[@ItsMeKelso]

Damn this is like something you would see in a movie.. it’s very rare to find such structures existing that haven’t been completely destroyed

[@taylorq23]

The pictures of the kids looks like early 80’s or 1970’s.

[@bleachedin2mysoul]

Such a great video!!

[@big120treez]

Your videos are great. Thank you for being so respectful of the history of the families of the properties you explore. Great filming. I can tell you have a real passion for your work. Would soooo love to know who the artist is, but understand why you do not give out the info. Respect bro. Sorry you fell and got hurt. Hope you're doing ok. Keep amazing us with your work and much luck in future filming and endeavors.

[@mikefitchNYC1971]

Fascinating exploration. Awesome job on this exploration.

[@heru-deshet359]

I would have to intervene, save everything in that house, then contact survivors. There's too much of a legacy going to waste there.

[@miac4908]

So sad that all that art is going to waste.Im guessing health issues would be the reason someone leaves all that art work or a sudden death.

[@TheSwords99]

That artist should have made a will and left his paintings to someone

[@kimb4285]

What an amazing find, all those paintings, so many of them, what a shame the people that tried to do the house up didn't take them with them, or some family member, such a shame to see them get ruined, fab video, thanks for sharing.

[@thuyrannosaurus]

This is a thrifters dream house. Vintage perfection. Do you ever take any of the items that are abandoned?

[@thatonegirl4676]

Urban Explorers never remove things from houses and they try and leave them how they found them.

[@grinningbarrett1]

Hi, great videoes, Dark Exploration Films! Have you ever tried what I have written below? I would love to know your answer. Since you know the physical address, you can go to the local court house and look up who the current owners are. It is a matter of public record if you are in the USA. You could then contact them and offer to purchase the property. Or if abandoned and the taxes were not paid on it for at least 3 yrs, It may only have to have the back property taxes paid for by you to out right own the property. Would be worth a try!

[@Katie-cn2mv]

grinningbarrett1 you’re ignorant. He doesn’t want to buy it. I’m not sure where you thought that up

[@deendrew36]

Why do you think he wants to buy the property? 🤔

[@AbandonedMaryland]

Love the video I can only think of one painter to paint like that but I ain't saying shit

[@dearlykat9581]

I enjoy watching your vlogs Fr. 🇵🇭

[@lavenderflowersfall280]

There is no way in the living daylight that that house is from the fifties. I was going to say about 10 to 20 years initially. After seeing those magazines I'm going to say 90's to early 2000s.

[@deendrew36]

I feel like the house might date back to 40’s/50’s or even older, but definitely abandoned much later. 90’s?

[@cruisingwithwilliam]

amazing place

[@shanonsmichigan4120]

yes. books are always bought the same day as a house gets abandoned. that is how we date the departure. 2:25

@@DarkExploration no its not :) I mean, I have books I bought 20 years ago. How could that possibly be. If you found a news paper, that might be closer at least.

Nicely made.. your an artist creating thes vids. I think people should paint more landscapes with self made canvasses and brush in hand and tap into our element's of our nature in nature that can be therapeutic and healing to body, mind and soul. It's becoming a lost artform just like penmanship or calligraphy that we can distinguish the wonder and beautiful style of our own. Thanks💖
