Years ago I was at the Louvre and stood amid dozens of other tourists staring at the Mona Lisa. Right next to me was a man with a group of tourists from Japan. I gagged as I noticed he had a mound of EAR WAX sticking out of his ear...So there I was looking at such a famous and beautiful painting and next to me was this gross sight. I still snicker at the contrast. I love to tell this story. Steve from Minneapolis.

Makes me want to go back to Europe. I enjoyed hearing the story of a place in Florence where Leonardo and Michaelangelo supposedly (I feel fairly certain there is SOME evidence that they did.) hung out. Tuscany is largely delightful. Lombardy is worth seeing, also. Venice is in serious trouble and I feel the motorized boats should dock a mile away from town and put passengers on rowboats or gondolas to travel the rest of the way. Did you see how the fish returned to the canals during Covid shut down? Surprise! Fish can't swim in gasoline.

[@EannaButler]

The Arnolfini Marriage painting was in my history book in the late 80's here in Ireland. I'm so honestly thrilled to see it being treated exactly as I couldn't put my finger on all those years ago.... And to think that the painting is 589 years old now...... Been burrowing my way thru the rabbit-hole of Waldemar videos here on the Perspective channel for the last two weeks. Never felt more appreciative of anyone in a longgg time... Thanks for producing this Waldemar Januszczak, and for uploading Perspective 🙏👏👍👍

[@s.v.2796]

Your solution to the mystery of the Tempest is the ONLY plausible sounding one of all the solutions I've read through the years. Simple, elegant, your explaination leaves nothing out. At the same time it covers new, unexplored territory (the cranes) deftly scoring point after point. Also, I'm so intrigued at how disparaging your tone can be when discussing Da Vinci. Then, suddenly, a 180 and BOOM! Back to respect. Felt the same way when observing my first Rembrandt face-to-face. Ended up studying it for hours. Easily! Breath taking.

One of Walemar's best documentaries (and they are all very good). If I had had the internet when I was in school how much would I have learned? In my time it was difficult to find, and expensive to buy literature about art. So now I appreciate Waldemar's docus even more.

I did art history at school and loathed , Waldemar makes it absolutely fascinating and relevant. I love him and have even started reading some art history works recently . It’s a miracle.

[@danwittmayer6539]

Great cultures generate great Art as seen through the eyes of great creators. Artists never work in a vacuum so we must discover the cultural/political context of the artists' lives. Where did they live & what motivated them to create their product? I ponder these issues every time I visit museums on a superficial level. I applaud Waldemar for the depth of research that he undertakes to enlighten us to the gestalt surrounding the Masters. He provides much food for thought & even argument. Our own study results may differ from Waldemar's while he raises these subjects for our consideration. I love this!

The most interesting art critics. He gets real, not all full of fluff & grandiosity for the artists or the paintings. Keen thoughts, ideas, look at the artist, their are & times.

[@lilianaprina5991]

Leonardo portraits of females are truly mysterious. Most of them arises people's curiosity with the colors he uses, his ladies show elements of a fashionista with curls in their hair like flying with the wind. He also uses many beautiful shots that are different than all the other paintings. He includes close-up images not used by other painters. He concentrates on the ladies beauty features. I love Leonardo, he doesn't build his flying machines and many of his draft inventions, perhaps there were not at the moment in time elements necessary to do so, but they were inventions from his imagination. A futuristic approach to creativity. I do find him fascinating because his almost art that is never done is extremely passionate with elements he is not prepared to build. Often artists don't have the money to do many of their ideas and creative endeavour. In a way Leonardo invents the modern women ahead of time, the same as drafting a flying machine that couldn't be built yet.

[@borge2014]

Thank you so much for sharing your insights, knowledge and curiosity. Your humor and wry observations illuminate Masterpieces we tend to take for granted. I had no idea La Gioconda had such an interesting history. I had only heard of her husband and her last name but never that Napoleon treasured her or that she sort of disappeared for a straight 300 years. Leonardo never turned over the work to her or her husband. Nor did I know about her subsequent "theft." Can you imagine being able to see La Gioconda daily like some billboard poster as you wander towards your morning coffee or demitasse and brioche?!! My such a view!! I learn immense amounts from your videos. I like the way they open my mind and make me think and look at paintings I've always treasured in new and different ways. I've been looking at paintings in museums since I was a wee girl - which was many decades ago and to find new ways of looking at paintings I've seen in person and over and over again in depictions is delightful. Us old dogs love learning new tricks so to speak...we love learning about new ways to look at old things. Bravo!! Gratitude. You ARE fabulous. I wish you would teach.

Vasari was the PR firm for the Italian version of the Renaissance. He did much for the legends of Michelangelo, Raphael, and Leonardo Da Vinci as a trinity. Da Vinci experimented with everything, he perpetuated some mistakes and improved on others. Taking away from his genius seems to be the trend nowadays, it’s unfortunate. As classically trained artist and product of 2 scientist parents, Da Vinci has inspired countless people. Sure he used experimental painting techniques, though his Last Supper in any condition is a masterwork. The Sistine ceiling is a Herculean marvel, so is the Mona Lisa. We’ve become desensitize by art on shower curtains, bath mats, and watch faces. Even Rembrandt was largely forgotten about for a few hundred years till museums. Painting one Mona Lisa is a lifetime is enough of an accomplishment, it’s not fiddling. What really gets me is how people clamor to see it, meanwhile down the colonnade in the Louvre are 5 other Leonardo’s that are largely ignored.

Leonardo da Vinci might have been the most learned man in history. A great painting contains knowledge. Besides that a painter would imbue a painting with his philosophy. The Mona Lisa was the pet project of Leonardo. He imbued it with everything he had to give it. The best painting by the greatest mind. And it shows in the Mona Lisa. That is why it is so great. And I think he wanted it to represent him and his life's work. I have one painting I put my all in. It stands apart from my other paintings. Maybe some day I'll have another powerful message I wish to relate.
