Yes, i felt a strange feeling while looking at this art piece and im not into paintings. I felt... somewhat of a melancholy with awe, and a touch of homey-ness.
Agree 100%. I will make note of this painter. I love the starry night of van gogh. His style and technique brings the picture into som sort of a live image. I feel the same with this one. Obviously an original van gogh are not an option. But this Cortes might be. Just wonderful :)
@ekimshield I've studied Kinkade’s work from when he was a teenager. He had the chops. Like him or not (I like him, too), he did what no artist has done since Leonardo. The book, ”Billion Dollar Painter” is remarkable. It's heartbreaking how things turned out, but it doesn't negate what he accomplished.
how is that even possible? obviously her grandparents bought the painting when it was not famous, and it stayed in her family all these years. Unless the artist made a duplicate painting all those years ago.
@@ariochiv There's a decent sized art department at the college in my town and it only seems to produce complete rubbish. I see nothing come out of it that elevates and beautifies the human experience. "Hey, I'll paint these burlap sacks pink, fill them with sand, and tie them together. Art!" "Congratulations, you now have a masters degree." "Great, where do I get my 6 figure job?"
Cortes lived from 1882 to 1969, think about that for a second, he grew up riding horses and carriages all the way thru the invention of the automobile, invention of flying, and landing a man on the moon. Incredible to think about
I’m not into paintings or art like that but This is the greatest painting I’ve ever seen. It’s crazy everyone in the comments is mentioning the same sort of thing too.
what a beautiful painting it really sets a mood . . . looks like an early spring evening after a cool rain . . . love the effect that the lights produce, then when he revealed the pin hole for authenticity, just neat . . .
In 2000 my wife had a Cortes very much like this that her mom and dad had bought for $500 before they died. She put it up for auction and it sold for $34,000.00. At that time it was a world record for a Cortes.
I think the popular prints you've seen are of another piece on the same subject called 'Théâtre du Châtelet (EC00852). The painting in this clip is listed in the artist's Catalogue Raisonneé as titled 'Place du Châtelet' (EC00465), painted around 3 years later, although obviously from the same source when you compare the two paintings.
For whomever information, it is a view of the Theatre du Châtelet seen from Quai de Gestures. Interesting to see a painting of a very familier place ! :-)
I did quick search on Google, and apparently there are tons of painting of Theatre du Châtelet by this artist and others. It was very popular subejct for painting, I guess.
TY for the info...I have a pet hobby of locating painting scenes in modern day Google Street Maps... fotos but need the address or place name. So thank you for the help.
@@voltcorp Yes. Bless you for saying this. Especially directed toward those who can't relate to a JMB painting. Just because you can't relate doesn't invalidate.
For me looking at it, it look very much like a Thomas Kinkade. I used to live in a tourist trap town that had a Kinkade gallery. This is very beautiful. Thankfully I've had the opportunity to go to Paris in 1990. Paris is as beautiful as a painting. Thanks.
Oh. My. Goodness. When I was a kiddo, we had a jigsaw puzzle of either this or a very similar Cortès street scene. Imagine having the original hanging in your lounge!
Before cell phones, internet, video games, tv and such, people harnessed their talent into all forms of art including woodworking and painting. Today, it's unheard of.
I'm not an art guy, but this painting I love, the mood or a feeling I get looking at it, is palpable, just feel warm and alive. I know it sounds crazy, but it moves me. 🙏

The reflected lights on the rained soaked on street are for me absolutely magical.
That's a stunning painting
I’d pay 50 thousand for that if I had it.
The thing that really strikes me is the highlights in the windows. So much contrast
@@tbrowniscool what caught my eye was that street light on the left.
@@Briggie I agree its so amazing
I would love even a print of that picture.
That painting has given me a special feeling, one I've never had before. Wow!
Cold and wet?

Crazy, me too.
I didn't get cold looking at this, I just got really really wet.
And I'm a guy
What a gorgeous painting. I can almost feel the rain.
What an incredible painting, it looks so alive.
The painting is magical, transports us there, and looks like it's moving ❤️

what a beauiiful painting, so luminous, it's so vibrant and alive, even in the rain
The painting made me feel alive. Joyful. There is life in it.
The painting feels like it is alive. Like you could step into it. Amazing.
Beautiful painting. I'm a little chilly from the rain just looking at it.
Absolutely incredible piece. The use of light and perspective are perfect, and the tones used perfectly captures the feeling on nice but rainy day.
wow eduard did light very well.. it feels alive almost
I was told he was an inspiration for Kinkaide.

The muted colours around the lights and overall mute colours of the piece, makes the lights look so realistic
When you blur your eyes viewing it.
What a lovely painting. I could stare at that for hours. You can tell the artist loves Paris and observed Paris at all times of the day and evening.
The reflection of the rainwater on the street is beyond magnificent.
This is just beautiful
It really is a quite lovely painting.
One of my favorite artists of all time. His paintings are extraordinary.
Very special painting. Can't really put it into words. I just love it. It feels like you could magically enter into the scene.
This show changes people’s lives. And it’s amazing to see the joy and excitement on their faces
What a beautiful painting!! I love it❤
The light sources in this painting are absolutely stunning, they really seem like they're real. A beautiful painting
such a beautiful painting
Such a beautiful painting. Paused it during the close up and just stared at for a good 5 minutes haha just wonderful.
I really love this painting. Just amazing. Life is depicted so well.
I have often seen the replica of this painting on calendars or posters. Beautiful!!
how is that even possible?
obviously her grandparents bought the painting when it was not famous, and it stayed in her family all these years.
Unless the artist made a duplicate painting all those years ago.
I just did a quick search on Google, and apparently he painted tons of the same subject from same view point with little variations.
love that painting
and I'm not a collector or art lover
Mud Sh-sh-shark agreed, a lovely scene with an engaging style makes for a good painting
It's a rare case where it's valuable but actually a nice painting. :D
me too. just really great paint. not some pseudo art common these days

@@BudSchnelker To be fair, no one or almost no one is getting a 6 figure job with an MFA degree in fine art
Beautiful Painting! I'm so glad for this Lady to Authenticate an Original.
This painting is absolutely beautiful!
I love this painting. I love to drink coffee on rainy days and this image really represents it when I'm at a coffee shop.

That's a beautiful painting, I was instantly drawn to it
I can feel the cold air from this painting. Extremely Beautiful Opus piece.
Wow - what a gorgeous painting! So luminous and alive... just stunning!
As being a painter myself, I can see how he romanticised the colour into beautiful expression of shade and light.
Great atmospheric painting!!
I am a great fan of cortez,how on earth do you make the lights look so real on the paintings
I rly appreciate Edouard Cortez 's art style and life. He is one of my favorite painters of all time
Even brought a tear to my eye. Fantastic find.
What lucky people - to live your life in a house with that painting on the wall! Magical.
The painting is very evocative--and, it's lovely. Nice lady, and this is one of my favorite appraisers, Mr Nichol.
Beautiful painting. The vibe and the mood is spot on for a rainy cozy day.
This is among his best work
Beautiful painting. The wet, the cold, the dark opposite the warm
bright lights.
Love that style of painting...
you can almost feel the damp air after rain and all the light reflection coming from the wet street and lights, really stunning
Great painting. Look at how wet the pavement looks. Look at the reflections in it. Amazing.
I’m not into paintings or art like that but This is the greatest painting I’ve ever seen.
It’s crazy everyone in the comments is mentioning the same sort of thing too.
This may be my favorite painting. You can almost smell the season of winter and feel like it’s going to snow in the city.
That skill set to paint something so alive and in the moment is beyond comprehension
The detail in that painting is amazing. I'd go so far as to say that it's probably the most fascinating and interesting painting I have seen..!!
This is one of my fav paintings of all time!!
Thats an amazing painting.
Completely agree. That's a painting I would buy.
what a beautiful painting it really sets a mood . . . looks like an early spring evening after a cool rain . . . love the effect that the lights produce, then when he revealed the pin hole for authenticity, just neat . . .
Great painting. A bunch of blotches of paint that magically transform into a picture. Quite fascinating.
What a painting 🤩 light comes to life Mr cortez 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

I love that painting !
So much going on in this painting, but all so perfect & composition amazing
one of the best pieces of art ive ever seen
Thy sky is so well done. I get a feeling of cold yet warm vibes by looking at it
What a great painting...love street scenes
The light and rain effects are amazing
The lights are amazing
beautiful painting, beautiful owner, beautiful appraiser
What a stunning painting, it looks like a beautiful dream
I love & watched AR for many years on the tele . So wonderful it’s now on my iPhone. 👍😎❤️👍
Beautiful painting and I always enjoy Alasdair's appraisals.
That’s a beautiful painting!
Beautiful painting with the lights.
This has to be one of the most well known paintings of Paris in the world! Prints of it are everywhere!!

The use of light and reflection is great. REALLY nice painting.
i am not into paintings.. and most of the time i laugh with the prices ..i cant understand them.. this one actually i like..great painting
If I won the lottery that's all I would do is research and buy paintings
now the next time you feel like laughing at the price of a piece you can picture other people feeling what you're feeling about this one
@@voltcorp Yes. Bless you for saying this. Especially directed toward those who can't relate to a JMB painting. Just because you can't relate doesn't invalidate.
That's a really beautiful painting to be honest. The 3D and the reflections of lights are amazing.
What an amazing painting. Beautiful.
So beautiful.
Something about that painting is just incredible
That’s art that everyone who views it can agree is incredible, there’s just something about it that makes you want to keep looking at it
Those kinds of paintings do not normally impress me. That one does. It's really beautiful. I Love her reaction.
He did some beautiful work, I could look at it all day.
I absolutely love this painting.
The gentleman has a very nice modulated voice and the enunciation is impeccable!

Beautiful painting...love the colors.
Beautiful painting. I’d never heard of this artist before.
I love that painting. It reminds me of Christmas.
That painting is gorgeous !!!!!!!!!
The lights look amazing. This painting makes me feel a type of way.
Oh. My. Goodness. When I was a kiddo, we had a jigsaw puzzle of either this or a very similar Cortès street scene. Imagine having the original hanging in your lounge!
I’ve always loved that painting.
I've never heard of this person and this painting is beautiful! I want one!
Beautiful painting. Love it.
A truly remarkable artist.
Such a beautiful painting!
What a splendid painting!

Lol 2:52, that lady in the background almost dropped her antique vase.
should've gone up to her after she smashes it on the floor and said "that vase was worth 1 million pounds, what a shame you've destroyed it." lol
If you shlepped some vase to this roadshow, you are hoping it is worth a lot, so why take it out of the bag with one hand?
Thank to her titties, all is well.
@@Neildo430ci And they also helped her catch that vase.
@@kevinmartin2961 that's what he was saying...
I like when the videos have an extra clip of the original roadshow representative reflectIng back on the discovery.
One of the most beatuiful painting ive ever seen
Love this show 😍❤️💯
2:50 Grandma's favorite vase almost became a 1,000 piece puzzle 😮🤣
