Waldemar's ability to tell a compelling story, and illustrate it with juicy anecdotes, is arguably unparalleled in the art-commentary world. Suddenly, 2-dimensional characters in the art world take on another, and intriguing dimension. I love it.
Perfectly expressed!
Yes Waldemar's excellent programs bring Art to life,... but what happened to the closed captioning? The video is on Holbein and yet his name is repeatedly close captioned as "Hine,".. Tudor becomes "Tuda",... etc etc. Does no intelligent person ever check the closed captioning? and if AI is so great that it can pass the Bar exam, I guess it has it's work cut out for it....
I say that to myself as I watch all of his stuff.
100% agree. love this shit !
I fully enjoy his commentary and narration, it is truly wonderful.
waldemar is one of art history's most important creators and educators. His knowledge, personality, and breadth are unmatched. Truly one of the greatest gifts of light to art in what feels like a growing hour of darkness.
Here here.
Nobody does art better than Waldemar!
What are the names of his writers?
"art better than Waldemar" -- who is comparing art to Waldemar?
Nobody does [talking about] art better than does Waldemar.
FR!
@@MoivinSulunker You mean 'who'. I've been following him for years. This is him. And any production has a team don't you know? 😊😊
@@MoivinSulunker I think we understand the sentiment 😊😊
I love the way Waldemar literally walks the streets, opens the doors and invites us through places and paintings, pointing out mysteries and explaining symbolisms. Like how glass on a table's edge is a reminder that life is precarious and who knew a lizard was a symbol of old age!
I love the way, wherein you use the word "literally" and actually mean "literally" rather than "metaphorically" as so many other whose digital vocal likenesses Ihave heard.
What would you rather do: watch a 2h long, $300m Marvel movie, or listen to Waldemar talking about Art für 3 hours straight?
Yes but…….. I also loved Sister Wendy…… that marvelous lisp….she even made it on SNL!
@@deborah5221Very nice of you to mention Sister Wendy. I loved her, she was wonderful.
Waldemar!
Waldemar every day!
no contest- waldemar!😆
Weldemar never dissapoints is always astonishing, poignant, and highly entertaining.
Waldemar a great art historian and captivating teacher. The video quality and direction of these art travelogues is extraordinary as well.
Thank you, Waldemar, for brightening up my day
A fine trilogy, presented--as we all know--by the best. Life is enhanced by Waldemar's thorough assessments. Plus, now a whole lot more people know of Dobson, and why. Thank you thank you.
Hurray! 3 hours of binge watching! 👍👍👍
We need Walde-More!! Luv this guy
Waldy reminds me of one of those (very) few teachers you had in high school where it was actually fun to go to his class.
You actually end up learning stuff, and almost feel guilty for enjoying school for a little while.
Then later you wonder why most other teachers can't accomplish the same feat. Waldy makes it look so easy. But it ain't.
Exactly what I thinking.
Nobody like Waldemar! What character, what a mind and eye!
These documentaries are superb, as is WJ. 👏👏👋👍🎨
As for Dobson, it may not be so important that history has been unkind to him but that he was compelled to record his times in such intimate fashion and great honesty, regardless, that will keep him in good stead for those who appreciate an uncomplicated Englishman's virtues.
Yay for long art docus narrated by Waldemar!!!🎉
The history and symbolism behind the great art of history is fantastic.
Waldemar is someone I'd enjoy taking a class from or just going to hear him lecture for an afternoon.
I love this guy. I have watched his vids multiple time to make sure I understanding all the complexity that he so cleverly reveals. And also how much he understand what we ( the viewers) are probably thinking. I hope he knows how much he is appreciated.
In Waldemar's "fragmentary remains of a shadowy lute player," in the background of Dobson's Unknown Musician, I think first of all he's describing me, and probably quoting Robert Graves. Thank you once again, Waldemar, for all your marvelous scholarship.
This is just wonderful. I thought I knew something about Holbein--I was wrong. Looking forward to watching the next 2 parts.
This was educational and pleasant. What a great presenter!
Great documentary. Waldemar really tells it in a comprehensible and interesting way. 👍
C’est toujours passionnant... on ne voit pas temps passer. Merci !
Omg, Waldemar, I didnt think I would see you again!!!❤
I wholeheartedly agree with the comments vis-a-vis Waldemar’s ability to tell a compelling story, etc .. he’s all of that and with a keen sense of humor! A delight to enjoy.
Hooray! Waldemar! Where have you been?
So good to see your work again Waldemar. 😊
I agree with Waldemar's assessment of Cromwell. He was abominable. Thomas Moore was a victim of both Cromwell and Henry VIII.
The first time I visited the Alte Pinakothek and was confronted with a wall of Rubens I was disgusted. As I grew older and learned more...I understood him to be an amazing artist. (Much of that is due to Waldemore's brilliant lessons.)
Additionally, there are so very many different artists and incredible styles it's difficult, or impossible, to choose a favorite. Just like I cannot choose a favorite author.
"Perspective" offers an unparalleled arts channel, showcasing a global array of art. It provides insightful and informative content, featuring a rich tapestry of colors, depths, and a historical expanse covering centuries of artistry. Waldemar excels as a storyteller, blending humor with realism to reveal the art and true lives of the individuals behind the world's most renowned and obscure artworks. Thank you.
Waldermar, I could watch and listen to you for hours! Much love, babe😀
I really like these art performances, thank you very much 🙂🎉❤
When I went to Gymnasium in Germany gazillion years ago I had a professor who taught History in connection with famous writers, poets, composers, musicians and painters. This intertwining of such with History made it so interesting and more alive as well as unforgettable. But Waldemar tops this teacher by far with his animated " stories" . He keeps me spellbound and has me chuckle often. 🔥 damn, what a teacher.
" ... there we shout and sing His praisins in that land forevermore."
This man is just outstanding - there’s no Art Historian like him!
i love you Waldemar! what a description of Samson and Delilah from the great Rubens painting. thank you sir!
I learned SO MUCH from this fascinating set of documentaries! Thanks!
Wonderful art, wonderful Performance,thank you so much😮
Waldemar Januszczak is spot on when he calls Holbein's sketches of More's family 'astonishingly vivid'. The sketch of More's son, John, in a quiet, contemplative pose, at 15:25 enthralled me. A complete stranger from all those years ago, suddenly alive in my living room in 2024. How little he knew that all these years later he would be viewed by hundreds of thousands of people on UA-cam.
Fascinating video! Loved all of the quotes that Waldemar ripped out re Rubens, yes he's had his critics over the years. Regarding Dobson, didn't know of this artist before, his work is really excellent.
Ruthless and bloodthirsty times. There are those that clearly want to return us there, sadly. As of Nov 2023, in some parts of the world, this has already happened. Let's hope that beautiful history lessons like this, can make to consider how becoming evangelical about "good guys and bad guys" can help us to avoid such a fundamental human error.
Let's leave politics out of this, please.
Waldemar you have an amazing sense of humour, among many other virtues, you make art very interesting. Thank you.
the one and only! Waldy!, outstanding! Anchora!
Now I love Ruben’s, as I already loved Holbein. Thank you.
You, Sir. Are my favorite Art, History, Religion and Politics narrator.
Waldemar shall go down as one of the greats.
I love you Waldemar , I can listen to you for hours and never get bored. You are a brilliant educator, you have a gift for communicating. But, don't you think that the main reason we all remember old KHVIII and his "damned wives" is that he publicly executed TWO (out of SIX ) of them? And, maybe Hans had such a great time Chez Moore precisely because he was a Catholic painter, and not a heretic Priest who translated the bible from latin to English so the common people could read it for themselves.
I do have a new appreciation for the beauty of Holbein's portraiture thanks to this video. I have not ventured to the Frick in years but I will be paying a visit in the near future.
Thank you for your wonderful videos, I hope you do more of them. The world needs to appreciate art more (maybe it will deter bombing the hell out of the planet) and you do such a great job.
It was the squinting eyes that told me it was Henry VIII.
I initially said Henry VII.
THANK GOD FOR WALDEMAR THE MIGHTY!!
I guessed Henry VII. I was only off by one Henry. 😐🧐🎩🍗
I absolove love it when he rips up the " opinions "!!
It won't be long time until we hear the angels singin a song of victory.
I had no idea. Freakin genius.
The distorted skull is GENIUS
I enjoy and I learn.Thank you so much!
Ah ha. That's why my art history professor spoke like that while prancing around the lecture on his tippy toes. He was imitating Waldemar. 😅😅
LOVE this guy......makes art real....
Thanks for posting
Can we get NEW Waldy???
No
Shame. I would love to see some new content, but am also enjoying things like this, from 2010.
sztuka ma Januszczaka, kuchnia ma Makłowicza- art has Januszczak cuisine - Makłowicz. Good and knowlegable story tellers.
there is so much whereat to be looked.
Hi Waldemar. Another brilliant documentary!! Well done! You’re a star! I am now at the 3rd time of watching all your documentaries on UA-cam so please keep producing new ones! I am just back from the Louvre in Abu Dhabi and was good but nothing like the real Louvre, so you might do a documentary there and give your expert opinion! Thanks for many hours of great entertainment and education! Are you doing any lectures?
Entertaining Narrative & fascinatting !!!
great story about a great master 👏👏👏
thank you
Amazing story telling ability 😮wow!
Very interesting Performance,Waldemar thank you very much😮😊
Waldemar's Deep Diving
Honor the Gerund!
That was bloody great.
Thump up to the viedeo even before the advertising finishes... Henry the 8th...i mentioned it before I knew it. thanks to Waldemar.
You're right about Holbein getting Sir Thomas More right.
Thank you
Thank you for the truth and saying that Cromwell was a louse - a Himmler of his time
Can you all talk about the Artists and not about Waldemar? Holbein is a genius quite unmatched.
Thanks!
Yessssss🙌🏾
there is a lot of Reubenses out there.
one lot.
What's the name of the background music during the first 40 minutes? The soft traditional instrumental with a female singer.
For an update could Mr. J give us an additional comment that in March of 2024 the Louvre cleaned and conserved Holbein’s 1539 Anne of Cleves. The colors are vibrant! 😊
Teşekkürler.
I love this guy.
when you first come into here.
Waldemar's deep diving.
Why was Johannes van der Meer called "Jan" and Johannes Holbein called "Hans"?
Jan is a Dutch thing
@@160rpmI already figured that
War not so much "erupted" as "was fomented by agents of families who came out of Venice"?
Love it
Im from Bavaria, best arthistorical doku! Love the cut, the music, the fun, the absurdity. A lot of bad things to say about you english but certinly not your humour.
I'll take the Art talk everytime!!! easy🧐
Waldmar for President!
I liked Sister Wendy. She was passionate, knowledgable, and inciteful. Not only that but she was very keen to share her passion. I haven't seen anyone to match that, however knowledgeable. Certainly this is interesting, but still, I'm sorry, I don't see that joy.
that's he there.
Waldemar - the penultimate story teller!
Uwielbiam Pana opowieści.
I love art. I adore you. Keep itup sweetheart.
Henry sent a letter to (I think it was) parents of Mary of Guise, asking for her, and stating that he liked her height. Maybe I saw it reproduced in the LOC. He was rejected.
rules get to be broken.
💛
Waldemar?! instant click
✨
Go Waldemar go!!
Between 248 and 292 A.D. the pale horseman rode forth, and the roman empire crumbled into the most dreadful state of disorder and chaos.
Those 200 angry Lutheran gangs from Basel in 1529 remind me of the Antifa gangs nowadays destroying statues and other things ,nothing has changed regarding human behavior
