Hieronymus Bosch - The Temptations of St. Anthony

The Temptations of St. Anthony is an oil painting on wood panels by the Early Netherlandish painter Hieronymus Bosch, dating from around 1501. The work tells the story of the mental and spiritual torments endured by Saint Anthony the Great, one of the most prominent of the Desert Fathers of Egypt in the late 3rd and early 4th centuries.

please dont stop making these, especially the long ones. all are appreciated. never enough hieronymous bosch

[@hanakarim2275]

it so sad to think how some simplistic and in my opinion useless videos can generate so many views when a master piece like this goes under the radar. I don't want to sound pretentious and people are free to do what they like but my God are they missing out or what? Great work.

This is beyond high quality content, it's TV-grade material. Your narration is as good as the works of art presented, and all the setup and sound background are up to the nines.

[@freshprinceofsd]

If you’re gonna narrate, narrate. Why have an index card worth of narration in the form of a caption every tenth frame? Just read it. It’s distracting and takes away a lot of flow from the edit.

[@soundclock2939]

Another fantastic project. Hoping you can get to the other pieces such as the Last Judgement.

gah. the demonization of women throughout history never ceases to amaze. thank you for the informative video

[@bohomouse8890]

What a fool i was to dismiss all religious paintings. Id assumed they'd all be dull. Not Bosch's work, he's remarkable and though provoking

PLEASE DO ANOTHER I'M DYING OVER HERE!!

[@shelleyisom2639]

I've been reading all the Hieronomous Bosch novels by Michael Connelly and they are wonderful but pretty soon somehow the painting intrudes. I used to have a copy above my desk for several years. Then it began opressing me and I took it down ... Now it is oppressing me thru Connelly's novels -- humanity doesn't seem to improve over time.

It is in solitude and isolation not because you want to but because nobody understands your so called visions or feelings.

[@jacksonjennings9960]

I can’t state enough just how exceptional these videos are. I gained a love for Dutch art from your works on Bosch. What you’ve done is truly remarkable and I hope you start making videos again.

The best art cxommentary and analysis I´ve seen.

[@TheAlfieobanz]

That was BAD ASS!

Love what you do, editing, research, voice... Thank you & keep up the good work!

[@m0m065]

Amazing. Thank you. This was incredible to watch.

[@robertgutierrez7453]

To this day I find Bosch's paintings very: intriguing, disturbing and lurid and dark all at the same time. Indeed nothing is new under the sun in regards to man's filth in his soul. Thank you for this channel and the narration of this piece. I greatly appreciate it

[@Thesp88]

Thank you so much . This is a truly gripping video . What a privilege to listen to someone with such understanding of paintings and who can extract profound meanings out of them .

[@johnnywhite58]

I've just stood in front of the painting in Lisbon and watched and listened. Marvellous. Thank you ! Brilliant research and explanation. Especially the cross references !

[@AbishaiC]

I was on student exchange in Portugal, when I got to see this masterpiece in person, at Lisbon. I spent much time reading the painting there, and it was quite moving. Thank you so much for this wonderful video, it gave me an even more profound understanding of the work! It has drawn me closer to my time in Europe...
