Thank you for spotlighting Durer - he is the most inspiring artist of all time!

[@pedro-pascals-armpit]

it's either Dürer or Duerer.

[@ArtReviews]

Great video! Dürer rarely gets the respect he deserves.

[@artem.non.odit.nisi.ignarus]

Another video of intellectual and aesthetic indulgence. 🥰 This time about one of my all time favorite painters - Albrecht Dürer. 😃 Thank you so much! ❤️

[@athenaartfoundation]

He's just amazing, isn't he?!

[@actuallyfrankie]

AAAAAHHHHH!!!!! So happy you have a brand new video out! I absolutely love your channel, both for the content and for the cuddly cameos of your feline assistants. Hullo Jimmy the floof!!

[@TheArtTourist]

Yay thank you! Jimmy says hi! 😸

[@Kay-kg6ny]

Oh yay a new upload! It's a good day.

[@arelcrest]

I've seen those apocalypsic pieces in an art museum!!! They’re hauntingly beautiful.

[@jamesblack9958]

And another little point. I've noticed that you work hard to wear a different outfit on each video. As a visual person, I really appreciate that. It is much harder to remember a name. But much easier to remember a particular outfit.

[@Soppsleven]

My forefather was friends with Durer. His name was Melchior Lorck and he was an artist himself. He made a portrait of Durer, a profile picture with his long curly hair.

[@Farmer_Maggot]

Lovely piece, but hard to imagine they were that good of friends considering Dürer died a year after Lorck's birth

[@billyandndiogbe3806]

Thanks for the education. As a budding art enthusiast, your channel is the perfect gateway to the beauty of human imagination; both past and present. Keep it up!

Thanks Rachel for a resumed but thorough glimpse of Durer's life, that ends up explaining his art. Magnificent video and testimony.

[@TheArtTourist]

Thank you!

[@rodrigoestrada8347]

@@TheArtTourist as an Intellectual Property lawyer, I was very pleased to learn that Durer's was the first case of copyright infringement! a big bonus for sure (will mention in my classes now 😃)

[@TheArtTourist]

@@rodrigoestrada8347 Cool!! Some sources say his was the first art-related copyright lawsuit, others say one of the first, but either way sounds like a historic case in your field!

[@rodrigoestrada8347]

@@TheArtTourist definitely! I will do some research and will share my findings with you 🙂

[@bluefish4999]

One of my favorite artists, I have a very old book from 1936 in German of Durer, a lot of the prints being fold outs.

Dürer was a selfie pioneer. Got to respect that 😂

[@christiananderson4909]

Thanks!

[@serendpt1954]

I loved this video. Thank you so much! It only occurred to me now that manet's luncheon on the grass is inspired ( more like borrowed) by Raimondi 's judgement of Paris. I lived in such darkness😭 Durer is so sophisticated and i love his monogram.

[@TheArtTourist]

Such a good point - thank you for adding!!

[@harkmay]

These ancient painters influenced SO many artists over the centuries... you can see the influence clearly on Paper money and tatoo art today. totally epic compositions. How prolific he was!

[@TheArtTourist]

Indeed!

[@jameslabs1]

Same looping music in every video. But all else is very good. Thanks

[@williewonka6694]

All thats necessary is look at his self-portrait as a 13-year old, to grasp his greatness.

[@michaelbenenson]

Much learnt. Durer's magnitude immeasurable but eloquently received via your S.C. commentary. Ta! Post-Durer, ironic that Germany took a lone direction, separating artistically from the treads of Italian/French portraiture etc. Why?

[@TheArtTourist]

Many thanks! I wonder whether it's because of Durer - he seems to have prompted a new kind of German nationalism in art and literature, especially come the 18th and 19th centuries with Goethe, Friedrich, etc.

[@mabonbran8913]

Hi guys, excellent as ever, I've been eagerly awaiting you next upload with baited breath and you never fail to impress. Quite the occult following for Albrecht, would love to see what these old masters would make with our modern technology and techniques, probably something like your videos... Thank you. 🙋

[@TheArtTourist]

What a compliment! Thank you!!

[@toddaulner5393]

I made a large version of his Rhinoceros. Really blows my mind he could do such detailed work in such a small scale, I struggled at 10 times the size.

[@carmenflorica1216]

Super artist

[@nirjharaloy6108]

Great initiative! I just found your channel randomly today. Are you a painter? Durer's detailing was incredible!

[@Waynetsunami]

I would love to see videos of Richard Diebenkorn and the Bay area painters.

[@dylansearcy3966]

This is what i love about duper

[@octaviaroodt4584]

Gorgeous episode, as always... But I'm not sure about the statement @ 13:00: if Flanders is considered "Northern Europe", surely the Van Eyck brothers' 1432 "Het Lam Gods" was one the first large scale nudes coming out of Northern Europe? With possible earlier examples?

[@octaviaroodt4584]

Oh, hehe, and then it is shown in the next few minutes :)

[@TheArtTourist]

Never underestimate Rachel’s ocd when it come to her research.

[@magmasunburst9331]

Maybe he painted himself as Christ because he saw Christ within himself by an act of Grace which is the true message of the new testament.

[@ripvanwinkle1819]

The middle ages in the church did a spiritual exercise called " contemplation of place". Rembrandt did same putting himself in the sea of galilee with christ. A self portrait, but in the context of the object or.place.of the painting

[@4478nick]

this channel is too precious

[@amysomething3370]

'Childless for reasons unknown' Historians have speculated that Dürer may have been gay or bisexual, and in a relationship with author Willibald Prickheimer, who he also made a portrait of. (Also, see his 1496 work 'the bath house)'

[@TheArtTourist]

That could be it!

[@kvk1960]

Agnes was a shrill fish wife with zero understanding or appreciation of Durer's monumental talent and importance, always pushing him to let her flog cheap copies of his prints in the local markets. Plus, yeah, he may well have been gay, too.

[@SrSacaninha]

Oh great video! I'm a Dürer fanboy lol

I'm confused is this a Ceveral Circles video? Why does it have a different name now?

[@TheArtTourist]

We re-branded! We’re going to focus on art destinations going forward!

[@marcosnino6052]

Would you be willing to do a video on Hugo David Pohl?

[@artfrontgalleries1818]

If you get to go to Nuremberg, the old city, you will see a contemporary statue of a giant cast bronze Hare emerging from it's den and cruising all of it's children and all other smaller creatures in it's path. I believe it dates to the 1960's when students and artists alike were feeling pretty dammed repressed and overshadowed by the dominance of art created hundreds of years before they had their voice

Why is it so difficult to spell Italian/German/Dutch names correctly?

[@robertgiles9124]

There is a sulpture in Rome's Verano cemetery that has an angel based on a figure in Durer's Melancolia. Near to where I live in Alameda. California are two excellent copies of that Italian sculpture in Oakland's Mountain View cemetery. The two versions are also featured in my video of MV Cemetery: kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6Ovh4mNg81larM
