Matt, Each piece of work that you do gives me a peaceful feeling while being educated and carried back, by your amazing presentation, to the time and life of these people. Thankyou, as always.
Thanks again Matt!!! 👍 Another spectacular video. I visited the Huntington Library as a young teenager. One day is NOT enough time there. You have brought back some special memories for me. 💚
You're so right, one day is not enough. I've been there many times, and I always find something new with each visit. It just so happened on the day I went to make this video, the art galleries were all closed. I had to resort to using photos I've taken in years past. Oh well. Thank you as always for your very kind words.
Magnificent! Somehow, I missed this when you produced it, but like finding a long lost treasure, it gave me great pleasure to discover it. So peaceful, so artistic, it does homage to the Huntingtons and their incredible achievements. Your video could well and should become part of the collection of artistry in this Library. Brave, Matt! Bravo!
As always a very well done video. I remember much of the San Gabriel area, San Bernardino, & Redlands growing up in Southern California. Beautifully done Matt.❤️😎
I love your documentaries, Matt! I did a short vlog of the Huntington earlier in the year and I know how much time it took me just to create my visit. I can't even imagine the number of hours you put into yours. Very impressive. Are you a professional filmmaker by profession?
Famous Final Resting Places Thank you! I had an idea to make a video of the Huntington’s when I visited San Gabriel Cemetery... but it was the excellent vlog you made here that got me to finally do it. 😊
Even though we visit some of the same places, our styles are so different that there's not much duplication. I visited Laurel and Hardy's grave sites a year or two ago, but never uploaded a video because you did such an excellent job and so many other UA-camrs have also visited them, but I realized that my visit is very different than yours and the others so I'm going to go ahead and upload it next week. It would be weird for a channel like mine to exclude them, even if I am the last one to the party :-) Look forward to your next video!
Please do upload your Laurel and Hardy video, there will never be too many of them. If ever there was a classic comedy act that deserves to be remembered it's them.
I grew up going to this library. And it is this library that my cousin has the Karpeles Manuscript museums around the nation. Pinky and Blue Boy hung in our house because of this museum. But for some reason I don't remember the tomb. Thank you for the time you have spent on our channel. It is much appreciated my friend.
Love the history, behind all your videos. Thank you so much. They are all excellent !Such A labor of love, by you. ❤ This place is beautiful and so.peaceful. Established in 1919, the year of my mother's birth.Who would have thought it was at one time a private residence of Mr & Mrs. Huntigton( what insight Henry had about California). Guttenberg Bible, the plays of Sakesphere.& the Cantabury Tales, are housed there, very beautiful Thomas Gainsborough painting of Blue Boy. What extrodonary works of Art , literature and the botanical gardens are gorgeous. an amazing beautiful place.. and such a wonderful gift, they have given to people. All of the exhibits are wonderful..And the info on George Patton Sr. didn't realise he was buried here, I love the quotes of his Son,General George Patton. A hard but fair man ! Arabella was quite the lady. Very wealthy, and quite an intelligent lady. You always provide great tours of places and history that some of us could , or never will be able to visit & see otherwise. The works of Andy Worhol naturally have been added, since then .Do they frequently add to this collection? The $ 728,000 that Mr. Huntington paid for one painting, of Blue Boy, then, would be worth, how much today ? The old saying is , it takes money, to make money. I wonder how many people, who were truly poor, ended up being millionaires? This was, and is the land of opportunity so, thats why people have always loved America!
Thank you for your kind and thoughtful words. The Huntingtons were great supporters of learning, beauty and humanitarian causes. So many have benefited from their good deeds.
I enjoy ALL your Videos Matt !!! You have a very Soothing & quite NICE voice !!! Thank You for giving me ( or Us) "Grave Explorations" !!!! GOD BLESS YOU & YOURS !!!
Very impressive. Beautifully done.. Enjoyed this very much.very clear. very interesting couple. You speak like a true historian. This only second video I've seen, wished I'd known of this site earlier. Will look forward to seeing and learning more. I'm sure my teenage sons will enjoy this. Thank you. Have subscribed. Very professional . Neita j and family,:-)
5:27, has anyone ever heard of that artist? John Antoine Whodong. Or have I lives 71 years and missed out on a great artist or are you pull our leg to see if we are listening. All the other artist are very well know and yet you lead off with an artist I couldn't even find on the net.
I don't think most modern-day celebrities have estates as beautiful as this! And I can't wrap my head around the sum of money it took to complete this place, and what it must be worth now. The Huntingtons were extremely generous to donate it.
The Huntington, Frick & Carnegie's of the world with their vast wealth made by the sweat of men, leave all these great places for the public awe. When none of them gave a Rats Ass about the livelihood of their employee's at the time of their lives...and so it continues today with the Walton and Bezos's families and others. Capitalization sucks.
RIP Huntingtons. Thank you for your generosity. The Chinese garden is especially lovely.

You are an entertainer, a historian and very much an educator; it is so very easy to learn with you and most enjoyable.

So true. It was really nice to see how much you think of them in your video.
@@graveexplorations Do you know how frequent they add, or how they determine what to add to the collection ?
I grew up going to this library. And it is this library that my cousin has the Karpeles Manuscript museums around the nation. Pinky and Blue Boy hung in our house because of this museum. But for some reason I don't remember the tomb. Thank you for the time you have spent on our channel. It is much appreciated my friend.
I went this past Saturday and I don’t recall it either. They have some sections closed to the public. I wonder if it was located it there
Beautiful work! You have a rare talent.
FetchTheSled You’re very kind, thank you 😊
You are so gifted. Each of your pieces feels like a wonderful History Channel special. Thank you.

Great job! That library was huge!
RhettyforFun Thank you, my friend! I only got to a small part of it and man it was a lot of walking.

Glad you enjoyed it, thank you!
I love your videos! The production and commentary 👍🏽. What is the name of the ragtime piano piece featured? Would love to learn it
Thank you! The piano piece is "Pineapple Rag" by Scott Joplin.
Love the ragtime piece, by Scott Joplin ! Ragtime piano is wonderful.
I agree! And Scott Joplin is easily the one of the most recognized composers of the style. :)
Grave Explorations thank you so much!!
Loved this

Awesome video!!!! 😃
Yes, it has quite a face, almost like it saw it's reflection in the mirror for the first time! Haha! Thank you for watching.
Liked subscribed and extremely appreciated with your work🤝 better than discovery or history channel 💯
Welcome to Grave Explorations! And thank you for all of your very kind words.
Lovely
I despise rich people LOL Very well put together, thanj you so very much. Wonderful history.
Ah but you have to admit They have the money to put these beautiful gardens etc together for others to enjoy long after they’ve gone on! 😎
@@lindamckague2251 You are so right. I love videos like this that shows old stuff very beautiful and educational. Blessings.
Aunt Kitty Hashtag Thank you very much I’m glad you enjoyed the video! 😊
Can you post music artists for this video? Especially during the George Patin segment
5:27, has anyone ever heard of that artist? John Antoine Whodong. Or have I lives 71 years and missed out on a great artist or are you pull our leg to see if we are listening. All the other artist are very well know and yet you lead off with an artist I couldn't even find on the net.
I believe the artist was Jean-Antoine Houdon
The Blue Boy was in the Wax Museum,along with Pinky.Tony
It's the guy from the old meme at 6:12 !
Do they have an area for a picnic?
No they dont! You Can only eat at the cafes or restaurants inside the gardens
They should bring back the Red Car.
☹☹☹☹☹😢😢😢😢😢😭😭😭😭😭
I don't think most modern-day celebrities have estates as beautiful as this! And I can't wrap my head around the sum of money it took to complete this place, and what it must be worth now. The Huntingtons were extremely generous to donate it.
It's interesting to see Andy Warhol.Tony
Doesn’t anyone else think it’s weird that he married his aunt after his uncle died?

Dude that music makes your video unwatchable.
