    These curated talks are worth at least one epiphany; in this one, Ms Herring made me aware of how beach going has evolved. It never occurred to me that going to the beach and having a beach chair and umbrella is a modern thing, that is , there was a time that that didn't exist. These paintings have put it into a societal and historical context! Thanks so much.

    An absolutely lovely video and a wonderful way to visit the beach when you can’t. I love seeing the comparisons the different artists and their interpretation. Thank you.

    The Bonnington is a tiny miracle - only just over six inches by eleven, the perfectly rendered waves are mere flicks of white, and the whole appears as fresh as if painted yesterday. No wonder Delacroix was so impressed, and travelled with him oil sketching. A tragic early death.

    Beautiful video. But may I suggest to show the paintings in their actual format as a whole and not only parts that fit the screen... hope that makes any sense. Sorry for my poor english.

    Who was the early 1900's maritime impressionist coastal painter that painted the vista view of,
    3 fishermen wading in the surf fishing, white sand beach, small white motor boat anchored?

    Hmmm, 6 male artists... any chance of giving the equally talented, yet greatly under-represented, historical female artists a look in? Time to actively promote equality in the National Gallery please.

    • @silvasilvasilva

      Can you name female 19th century artists who painted beaches (which is the scope of this video)? Genuine question.
