- Michelangelo Buonarroti, Moses, 1513-15, Carrara marble, 254 cm (8 feet, 3 inches) high, Tomb of Pope Julius II (della Rovere), 1505-45, San Pietro in Vincoli, Rome
I love how the commenters sound like sportscasters explaining a golf or tennis match
lmao
They're actually in the chapel itself. They speak in hushed tones so as to not disturb the other onlookers there also.
As if the man wasn’t busy enough, then the pope after setting him a monumental task in sculpting his narcissistic tomb he says oh btw I want my ceiling painted too!!! The man was a complete genius, my favourite artist ever
Well if it wasn't for these narcisistic people we may have never seen these amazing sculptures
AmazinChannel very true but give the man a break, at least a KitKat
Beth and Steven have a kind of artsy symbiosis that's really quite appealing. The way in which the two play off each other, offering insight and often times little known knowledge about the piece in question. I learn something new with each video I watch.
Thank you for that! It's what keeps me coming back again and again.
I have to say, as an audio engineer, recording the commentary on location, is a brilliant touch. The hushed tones of comments, the reverberation of the space itself with the background sounds of other patrons. With my headphones on, it gives one a real sense of being there. The first time I watch a video from this channel with headphones on, gave me a whole new appreciation for the quality of the production.
Thanks to all involved in the production of these videos.
And especially to Steven and Beth, for keeping it so interesting. Bravo all!
Thanks so much for reaching out. And thank you for your thoughtful comments about recording on site. It has its challenges but we think, for the reasons you noted, that it's worth the effort and helps bring listeners into the churches and museums and archaeological sites we visit. It also helps us, as we can respond directly to the work of art.
@@smarthistory-art-history Yes, please continue this channel for as long as possible!
Those sculptures are perfect, it's hard enough DRAWING the human figure!! Incredibly gifted man
2:41 Felt Cute, might design a tomb for my death later, idk
Lmao
Modern humans don't get bad ass tombs.
Love how great the background voices sound explaining, and how the environment sounds. Great work.
thank you for this thoroughly enjoyable and intelligent presentation .
The dynamic and style of this naration sounds like I am watching the olympics of figure skating, complete with a discussion of the competitors personal life challenges. (while whispering in a library)
I expect to hear Bob Costas follow up. :)
A different kind of video presentation. I've only been out of the USA to Canada, and to Italy, and Moses was visited on that fantastic vacation in that wonderful country. Sooo much history there. And each of the cities visited was a different world with unique qualities!
I can't ever decide if The Pieta or Moses is my favorite, but every time I see them I am completely captured by the emotion of the pieces. They speak volumes, even after 500 years and yet still, no one knows exactly what they're saying.
No one's ever gonna know what they're saying. Humans perceive emotions differently.
La Pieta is breathtaking.Moses isnt conveying anything to me.Sort of static imo.
@@jokesonyou1253 Thank you Captain Obvious
I love Moses statue, it feels like you are seeing the real Moses.
In 1964 the Pieta was loaned to the New York World’s fair. I was a little kid, but even I knew it was a big deal. It was on a rotating platform . What struck me, aside from the stunning beauty, was the marked greenish color-Dad explained to me that over time bacteria had grown on the surface.
AH!!! ADORED - MICHELANGELO 'S MASTER PIECES THEY WERE ALL BEAUTIFUL - MY FAVORITE IS THE " PIETA" BEYOND EARTHLY TALENT!!! FROM U.K.(2021).
Most epic art I have ever seen.
I like this video. It's a masterclasses for me. Congratulations!
I recently had to watch, "The Agany and Ecstasy" an amazing film about Michelangelo painting the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. The movie shows him wanting to continue his work on the tomb and paired with this video it's clear why that is.
Great coverage of this amazing tomb. Surprised that no mention was made of the change in position of the head of Moses as the original orientation was not as it is today - at least that is the description given in 1996 when I visited Rome.
The amount of work Michaelangelo has done is amazing. The Sistine chapel took Him 9 years.
2:45 I bet Michelangelo purposefully avoided sculpting people he disliked or felt that weren't worthy enough due to their personalities and believes/morals.
people that might have had too much pride, gluttony, and self righteous.
We used to watch these videos in my Art Appreciation classes. We watched these via Khan Academy.
~.~ Priceless treasure ~.~
I remember this one from another playlist. :)
The magnitude of this is staggering. I can't imagine making a little doll-sized figure, much less 47 figures of this scale with such incredible detail. And look at Julius presuming that God's angels would exert themselves in carrying his throne - fresh!
I also found it interesting that Jacob's wives surround Moses - why is that?
It was nice to hear the explanation of the horns this time.
Sungguh karya2yng luuaarr biasaasaa baaguuss sekalee tdk ada duanya di seluruh dunia !!!
Greatness.
Спасибо вам огромное за это видео.С Новым Годом и Рождеством вас ваш канал ваших близких и родных.❤🐬🎭💚😙😗💛⛵🐟🌹🌞🧡😘😇💜⭐🍇🏺🌈👋😍😍👁🏆🌍💙😚💋
I heard Michelangelo was paid 10,000 Ducats to make this, which is around 1.4 million USD today
Makes sense since Michelangelo didn't want to do all this s**t but the Pope was nuts and wouldn't let him leave.
Maravilloso, como de costumbre
No artist appreciated the male body like Michaelangelo
Glad you mentioned the mistranslation of Moses' rays of light as " horns."
Can you make a video on Giuseppe Sanmartino's *Veiled Christ* in the Sansevero Chapel in Naples?
We want to get back to Naples, an amazing city.
I went to Rome in 1985, but i never saw the tomb of Julius II. So the statue of Moses is impressive. I'm certain that sometimes tourists who visit the tomb and see the statue comment oh how familiar it resembles Charlton Heston from Ten Commandments.
It’s near the Colosseum.
Amazing.Amen.🙏✌😇😎🌍💛🤘🙌. Patron.
Art appreciation done right. 👍
Very interesting
Great
Now I know why there are horns!
I love this channel, but 360 video would make this 100 X better.
Thanks MMDD. Interesting idea.
Smarthistory. art, history, conversation. I agree, especially when in churches where the architect and artist are the same person, like in Santa Maria Della Vittoria's Cornaro chapel with Bernini - they were designed to be an immersive experience, so 360 video would be great!
I disagree, it would distract and inhibit the viewing when used for academic purposes .
Leonardo DaVinci and Michael angelo is my greatest artist!
👍
as an artist, Michelangelo regarded himself as first and foremost a scultor...
Era pra Moisés ficar olhando pra frente olhando o papa, Miguel Ângelo fez olhando para o lado, essa obra ficou tão perfeita que ao terminar o artista bateu com o martelo na coxa da estátua e falou, FALA MOISÉS.
Moses must have been working out so hard so he can carry the tablets. I’m sure the tablets were very heavy.
Do you know how mental midget level that statement is? Is that really your best, keenest observation? Even after listening to SOME expilanation...that is your best output ??? Tisk, tisk, tisk, smh.....dull mind much???
Energy, drama, tension.
This Site contains the Chains which held St Peter before Angels freed him
Of course it does
Türkçeleştirin lütfen🙏
I love history
47 real size figures? Where? Not on this monument...
2:54 Focus on Moses
How did they know how Moses looks like?
These features are based on convention, that is, it follows the traditions of its time and location (Italy in the renaissance). Art is often much more a mirror of the culture that produced it, than the subject it depicts.
@@UNUSUALUSERNAME220??? Ignorant!
As much discrimination to the Jews that came about from the HORNs on Moses it is sad to gloss over this issue. The Roman Catholic church really did a great job in hating the Jews with the miss translation of the Hebrew texts .
So... I mean, who has horns. No one raised their hand and asked, "Horns? Wait. Are you sure that is the word for horns? Am I the only one that thinks that might be incorrect? "No? So were goin with horns huh? Alright.. I mean, it's not like anyone is ever gonna ya know sculpt a huge statue of Moses with horns." That's why we have a sculpture of Moses with horns. Aint history great!
I was thinking, how could anyone mistranslate “rays of light” for horns. I have read several times that Michaelangelo loved to sculpt and was distraught about painting. From the depth of beauty of his paintings, I would never have guessed that. I’m thinking the horns may have been a way for him to vent. Pure speculation on my part.
@@suzanh7777 arises from an error by Girolamo, who translated the Bible from Hebrew into Latin in the fifth century. The author, during the translation, confused the word "keren", which in Greek means horn, with "karan" which means ray of light.
Girolamo in relation to the Exodus writes: "His face (of Moses) became horned (keren)", instead of "his face became luminous (karan)".

@@alanalan2732 See. So I was kinda right. A little smarter every day!
