A New Vermeer, the Story of how an Old painting became so very New

[@PyronsLair]

Amazing video as always, keep going with your exciting work

[@TheTeacher1020]

Fascinating information on Vermeer! I thought I was familiar with this genius, but you have reminded me that there is always much more to learn. I always enjoy your intelligent and engaging presentations. Thank you!

I am loving these videos about Vermeer 😊 thank you for sharing with us all! I hope you enjoy the exhibition.

[@ChristienGagnier]

thanks so much for this video. I am fascinated by some of your observations. I have not properly understood about curtains in front of paintings before. The curtain is like a fifth wall but is also references story about Zeuxis and Parrhasius. Amazing! Vermeer was a clever guy!

Thank you!

I so thoroughly enjoy all of your videos!! So much amazing information! I, like many people, I imagine, thought the green curtain was part of the letter reading girl's room, not a trompe l'oeil! Thank you very much for sharing your expertise and I look forward to your next video!

Thank you so much for this wonderful explanation about the painting, Carel! I found it really fascinating 🤗 If I ever go to the Netherlands I would love to hire your services. Your videos are just amazing 😯

You're welcome

[@EnglishDreadnought]

Thank you very much for this video. You mentioned forged signatures used to fetch higher prices. Do you have a video discussing these practices and the results of them? Or is there another resource I can look at? Thanks again!

[@jetpetty1613]

I look forward to stories of art! These videos are always interesting. Btw, I think you'd make a top-tier docent 😊

[@storiesofart]

Thanks!

[@armcuts]

The Frick it is a very amazing place. Have you ever visited Carel?

[@storiesofart]

Yes it is amazing. I have visited it, but the last time was way back in 2016. I hope I get the chance to go back

[@MichaelaHrdinová-r1o]

I´m sorry but from what I found the Zeuxis and Parhasius is the other way around. Zeuxis pinted the grapes and Parhasius won. Otherwise its really informative. Thank you. I find especially interesting the restorative work and how long it takes to get it done .. UAU
