Regarding the woman looking into a mirror on a demon's butt, there's a relatively famous medieval woodcut of a woman looking into a mirror and combing her hair, however the reflection in the mirror is the devil mooning her. The message being that a woman who indulges in vanity and spends too long looking in a a mirror will end up as ugly as the devil's arse. Bosch might have been referencing that.

Bosch’s art style looks so incredibly sci fi. The fact he made it in 1503 makes me feel like the time before us, especially in the Roman times was so much more futuristic then we will ever imagine or see. Like some of the animals the made extinct and so on. I know this is off topic for the video but I just was so taken aback by that. Thank you for this beautiful video.

When you were talking about the center panel of the Bosch painting, I couldn't help but thinking about how humankind's relationship with nature changed as people were converted from ancient pagan religions to Christianity. In some ways, people were closer and more integrated into nature when they still worshipped the sun and such. Christianity aimed to set humans apart from (and above) nature and animals. Ancient humans donned animal masks to sort of take on the aspects of that animal, whereas Christians of the time would have seen this as demonic behavior. It's hard to explain. I watched some documentaries on how Christianity spread through Europe and how it changed the way societies worked, or how it kept some things the same in order to be accepted. The Church sort of demonized nature in a way and our close relationship with plants, animals, and seasons. The middle panel, while it is supposed to show something obscene from a Christian point of view, could actually be seen as sort of idyllic to someone who thinks we should be more free and closer to nature.

When I was young girl we went to Hermitage in ST. Petersburg Russia. I have been there many times before, since my relatives live in Russia. The place is overwhelming. The amount of information your eyes need to capture will truly make your head spin. Obviously you don't have time to see everything. In order to appreciate each painting for at least few minutes, you would need to stay in Hermitage for 8 years straight. Anyway, I was rather young the first time, about 5 years old, so it was boring and nauseating for me, but next time I was 15 and could already cherish the art. They also had Egyptian exhibition there at that time, which tickled my pleasure buds. As we were leaving, I saw the souvenir outlet, which sold all kinds of postcards, pins, fridge magnets and books related to art and Hermitage. they also sold art supplies! My mother bought me watercolors and 2 easels and a book of Heironymous Bosch's art. I knew of him beforehand and as soon as I saw the book I wanted it. I still have it. His works have always exited me, with it's details, horror and weirdness. You look at it and you see the whole picture, but zoom in and smaller stories emerge. I was amazed at his imagination and ability to depict something unexplainable and unseen in such a human way. It's as if he translated Hell and Heaven in to a language humans can understand.

I also really enjoy your videos, in particular when you talk about obscure themes like you did in the video about Goya's dark paintings. So I thought that would be interesting for you to dig deeper into the lore of Divine Comedy, I believe it would be great to listen to your thoughts about it, there are lots of paintings and so much to discover about the fundamental book of Italian literature If you find interesting the topic you can also look for Go Nagai manga version of the Divine Comedy, wich has wonderful drawings.

Probably because we're such carnal creatures. It's a curse and when we follow carnality, we tend towards hell, when we follow biblically spiritual aspirations we tend towards heaven. But we're obsessed with the world, and find the physical trappings alluring. Evil loves when people defile and corrupt themselves, and our natural state of rebellion and selfishness ensures we always like to see how far we can push the envelope. Just my two cents.

Sometimes I wonder whether Bosch's hell was meant to be scary or humorous or both. It looks so surreal and goofy to modern viewers that it gets referenced in cartoons. I was raised to have a morbid phobia of hell (/recovering fundie) but weirdly enough I have never seen a _depiction_ of hell that I found truly intensely scary. I think it's the same principle as why you don't show the monster in a horror movie.

The mind can imagine far more frightening and awful ideas than can be conveyed through visual art. Though some things come pretty close I'd say. Personally my ideas of hell have nothing to do with demons or physical pain. One that's always really horrified me is just the idea of eternity and having your consciousness awake and aware but stuck somewhere for all eternity with no escape and not even suicide would be possible. That seems like one of the worst hells imaginable to me. I remember an example of this idea in a Black Mirror episode, a man's consciousness is stuck in a digital space where he experiences being electrocuted forever with no escape. That seems immensely cruel even for the worst person who ever lived.

Napoletano's painting is the closest I've seen to the sights of hell from a dream I once had. I dreamt a giant maze of old stonework, the joints glowing with fire that the floors and walls were a boiling heat. There were screams coming from them, the wailing of those trapped inside, unable to move. Others hung from glowing hot irons from the ceiling. These souls constantly writhed and screamed, but they couldn't break free. Most souls just walked through the maze. Some were tied together by shackles; most were just on their own. But there were others there, too: demons. They were huge against the humans, about twice or three times as tall, with feathery wings that could touch both walls. They were pretty like angels, but their eyes glowed with fire. Their shapes were muddled by clouds of smoke around them. These spirits carried spears and whips and would chase the souls around the maze, cornering and ripping them apart, sometimes with their bare teeth. The deeper you went into the hell from my dream, the more broken the space became. The walls and floors crumbled into dark pits. The pits were the scariest part; no sound came from them, just the faint whistling of wind. These deeper parts were often flooded with boiling water. These hot waves crashed against old stone. All in all, it was a pretty scary dream. Don't sin, kids.

This was really exciting and intriguing for me and I’m a young artist, I’m 14, and I loved this video! So dont go thinking only older people will be interested in your videos. I love videos like these where beautiful art not only gets to be told with vision but also with a deep story, especially when its older art.

I loved this breakdown of Hell Art, as you put it. Excellent choice of works to display and truly, I appreciate your breakdown of elements of the panel and then the levity of some of the absolutely WILD inclusions that some of these artists placed in their paintings. Also, the Andrew Sales works were very interesting. I'll definitely be following up with some research of my own to see what else he has made!

enjoy your analyses, been watching these since I found the Goya black paintings one. coincidentally I've also been reading paradise lost and the divine comedy and looking at some of the latter's medieval art, so this one is great, like weirdly perfect. mentioned it on an old video, but wanted to suggest nick blinko's work again. since I've seen a few of your outsider vids, he's a British outsider artist/musician with schizophrenia. he intentionally stops his medication when he writes/draws, uses ultra fine tip black pens seemingly able to draw in microscopic detail. and very into HP Lovecraft. his band, rudimentary peni, are still around, but their 1986 lp 'cacophony' is completely unique, and completely insane. all this assuming you haven't heard of him before. he has a book of artwork but it's very hard to find, out of print I think, but much of it exists online.

When I was a youngster, my grandpa warned me to never go near a certain tree at our local cemetery. He called it a dead tree, he said never touch it or try to climb it, wish I had listened for once. I did touch it and I felt like I was hit by electric, my body seized up, screams and crying filled my ears and the most terrifying vision of hell in my mind. No idea how long I was stuck there but when I came to, I had a bloody nose and pissed my pants. Nobody would believe me, I was in and out hospitals and talking to doctors for years. Grandpa was upset with himself because he didn't explain the warning and I wish I had followed it. The visions aren't so bad these days, meditation and medicine help alot. Always wished I had the talent to draw or paint to get these images out my head.

I've watched this at least 2 to 3 times now. I love this art and the way you describe it. But one thing that sticks out to me about The Last Judgment by Fra Angelico, that you don't mention, is that on the "heaven" or redemption side is that the majority are rather humbly and similarly dressed. There a re a few with crowns or non-halo headdresses, but most have rather simple head coverings or styles. Whereas the "hell side" appears to have many more crowns and headdresses that are, by design, standing out more than their heavenly counterparts. Displaying that the arrogant and the false prophets are more likely to fall than the humble and meek.
