"Come, eat my food, drink the wine she has prepared!"

❤❤❤❤❤❤

For viewers who only want to hear one perspective, and limiting that perspective as only coming from an NG staff curator, perhaps those viewers ought to search a bit more on the NG's channel? There is such a video on the channel. But for this video, it seems perhaps a trifle silly to complain about there being multiple contributors when the thumbnail of the video clearly states "many voices".

THANK YOU EVER SO MUCH FOR YOUR INFORNMATIVE AND WONDER FILLED TOUR OF THIS CASTLE AND IT'S ART!

I would like to point out, that like a Luncheon on The Grass, Manet plays with our perspective. The way the soldiers point their rifles at Maximilian, it would seem to suggest that he and his attendant are ~7.5 feet tall! Not a small painting, both in the idea it represents, the stir it caused, and the literal proportions themselves, and not discounting his obvious distortions of scale, I am truly impressed. Truly a masterpiece that I am glad the National Gallery owns, so I can see this masterpiece!

I think she just wanted to wear her bonnet. The punk made her take it off. I'd be annoyed too. (jk)

Twenty five minutes of talking and I'm none the wiser. Frankly, I'm not a fan of art historians.

You ladies are absolutely tops in every way. I enjoyed your tour so much, not only for your erudition but for the charm it was presented. I’m sure the current earl appreciates your style and skill in representing this amazing collection. Kudos to everyone involved.

Just so interesting. I knew none of this

I loved your insight, I love this painting, and your final words were so poetic and more true in this so called modern world than ever

Gorgeous Van Dyke, How much I looove him ..! 🤍🤍🤍🤍💫🙌

Fabulous❣️

I enjoyed every second of this episode. Thank you to everyone involved in this fabulous production. As a little aside …. I was delighted that the video wasn’t polluted with “musick”. Instead the music that was used was contemporary with the period and used judiciously. I really appreciate this as I can concentrate on the information and the art. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

What an imposing castle. An impressive presentation and tour.

The first thing that sprung to mind was Dame Edith Evans portrayal of Lady Bracknell listening to Ernest Worthing prattling on before declaring "A Hand-bag!".

On a recent trip to the Minneapolis Institute of Art, Sorolla's massive "Before the Bullfight" painting (98" x 146") was located where previously a few medium-sized Sargent paintings had been. Having never heard of Sorolla, this enveloping painting led me to learn more about this incredible painter. I love his dedication to capturing his subjects from life and using many sketches to complete his large works, a great lecture given here, Thank you!

What fascinates me most isn't the fly but that she wears not one but two rings on a single finger. Strangely modern touch, IMHO.

The work of art .. a little less conspicuous..left for an art lover to judge!!

Thanks very much. Beautifully presented by two charming and knowledgeable presenters.

Thank you. I enjoyed your thoughts on Turner and The Fighting Temeraire.

😮😮😮😮😮😮u

love the frozen river scene, thanks for explanation

Thank You, Ms. Susan Foister for your presentation.

Thank you for this beauty ❤

Thank you for this wonderful tour.

Excelente, gracias.

室内装飾の美しさに感動しました💚　壁、柱等の細かい装飾、その色彩も素晴らしかったです。 エリザベス1世が住まわれたお城で、美しい家具や装飾品に囲まれて、絵画を鑑賞できるなんて夢のようでした。 美術館に飾られる前、日常生活の中に置かれていたそのままの状態を、今に残していることにも感動です。 ぜひ訪れたいです!

A wonderful presentation with professional indepth descriptions of the paintings and furniture. I hope to see more in the future.

This was wonderful, thank you for all the information :)

Magnificent castle, furniture and paintings: Plus the remarkable explanation transported me to their times. Thank you. 🌺

Both the magnificent castle and it's breathtakingly beautiful artworks are truly awe-inspiring!!😍😍❤️❤️

Wow, to me I definitely see a family resemblance to Queen Elizabeth.

Clearly a brilliant scholar. She makes it look easy.

I too was surprised that memento mori wasn't discussed here. The fly & forget me nots, a reminder that death is inevitable regardless of age, wealth.

I love your hair 💕

Excellent visual analysis of this beautiful work and its many allegorical elements. 🙌 🙌

Looks soft to me the helmet stands out in the work what is that it seems to be a guard on the lance if that is what we are looking at please explain the satyr with the giant helmet.

Fantastic presentation! These days social media gets a lot of flack but it also a very liberating time we live in. As always there is always quality out there. I love it.

This series is disappointing: bad audio and mediocre video. It' really too bad.

I found this painting rather creepy, especially the little girl. Sorry, but that's how I felt on seeing it.

I saw this two weeks ago on a visit to London, I absolutely love this painting and to see it, in the flesh so to speak, was a massive treat.

Lovely and interesting talk. I do wonder why the curator settles on the fly being a joke, when even I as a total amateur know its often symbolizes death, decay, transience. The other details of the painting also indicate it's a remembrance piece and not a "jokey" painting. The forget-me-nots, all the black in contrast with the pale face, the positioning of her hands and the white fabric... It's a sombre but beautiful painting.

What people do not understand, is the idea of beauty is different in every period of time!

That was such an informative lecture. The most amazing thing for me was how much contact there was between countries. How Rembrandt was aware of other painters in Europe, and referenced to them in this painting. It was a very special time, he probably played with the children of the pelgrim fathers. My favorite Rembrandt is the drawing of Elsje Christiaens, its heart breaking. Rembrandt captured that feeling of a lost life so perfectly.

Thank you @Asok Roy

I love art but I am never able to see all the elements of a painting without a wonderful, rich and insightful description from an expert art historian! I learned so much. Thank you! ❤

She looks a lot like Venus in the "The Birth of Venus" by Botticelli. Perhaps this is her sense of boredom of a man who has fallen asleep after a few moments of passion. It happens!

what a lot of interesting information you have provided, dare I say, to flesh out our understanding of this, frankly, still seductive work. thank you! (I think the tube'y'all unsubscribed me. an error I have rectified)

Fantastic analysis! Thanks!

I've been a student of art and art history for 40 years, and am just realizing recently: *Botticelli is the greatest Renaissance artist of all.* His paintings express the joy of life, universal themes of humanism, and the visual decadence of a true master painter.
