Dark Goya (Full length): The later Works 2103pm 13.1.23 i doubt the images are seriously horrendous... works without a hint of goya? probably painted by that other wild man blake, then... who had claimed to have invented such a printing process.

This is great! I was in Madrid recently and saw the Black Paintings and Goya's other works at the Prado Museum. Seeing these works in real life affected me unexpectedly as I never realized just how rare it is to see paintings with dark themes and palettes. I was also surprised at how big or small some of the pieces were and just going into the room where the works were kept was lit with low and moody lighting. Before my trip to Spain, I had little idea of how much of my art knowledge was surrounded by Spanish Art (Goya, El Greco, Picasso, etc). I realized that now that I am older, I can empathize with these works with complex themes even more so now than when I first saw them on a printed art book. Thank you for this video, James. Just know that your hard work is greatly appreciated.

I've been aware of Goya my whole adult life. I was never that enraptured with him. Now I see him in a whole new light and just how my modern life preferences blinded me to this "The last of the old masters and first of the moderns" artist for the ages. I didn't want this video to end. It added a new chapter to my appreciation for art and I'm grateful.

I gotta say, man, you've exposed me to a new way to appreciate art. I always had a hard time "getting" art that seemed both obscure surrealism or hyper realistic. But because of how you explain these artworks, I can see that there's almost always something there that actually means something and isn't superficial.

Francisco de Goya is the person that made me relized art can be brutal, horror and does not need to demonstrate a sense a beauty. Los caprichos evokes all these emotions that most contemporaries did not dare depict.

Its rare that a youtube channel changes my answer to the question "Do you like X", but from someone who knew 0 about art, you really have inspired a love in the subject from me and many others. Thanks again.

Goya is one of my favorites, and I enjoy these long form analyses of his life and painting. Many thanks.

Your first video inspired me to go see his black paintings in Spain. I leave next month. This is perfect timing. Thank you

Your videos are extremely useful to anyone who enjoys and wants to learn about this visual art. I've discorvered the works of Francisco Goya because of your two other videos about him. And I was mesmerized by his work: : "Los Caprichos", "The Third of May 1808", "The Disasters of War", and "The Black Paintings". I don't know much about art, other than the things we learn in school: "Da Vinci is the the greatest painter eho has ever lived - just look at the Mona Lisa"; "Michelangelo was the artist who painted the Sistine Chapel ceiling". And because of your videos, I've learnt about artists such as: Edward Hopper, Francisco Goya, Basquiat, Hieronymus Bosch, Botticelli, Caravaggio. And in this craving to learn more about art I'm currently reading "The Story of Art" by E. H. Gombrich. Thank you very much for your content, which provides, in a really appealing way, the necessary knowlegde to understand and to be curious about art.

Another artist that I will admire in the future and look forward to his art in Madrid!

While I was at Prado, the painting involving the thread of life gave me chills and nearly brought me to tears when I thought about your connotation.

This is a fantastic conclusion to the Goya deep dive. You have me convinced there was no insanity - it just looked like it because the rest of the world was so insane and he was clear sighted. It was interesting to note that in the Third of May 1808 painting the colors of the focal character and the lamp mirrored each other. Another way he subverted the martyr image.

An excellent discussion on some of the most striking and fascinating paintings of all time

Thank you for another brilliant video. Beautifully worded and well-edited as always. Goya’s works are so visceral. The blood and anguish practically drip off of them. I’m amazed at how he was able to create such depth and specificity of emotion with so few strokes in his later paintings. I agree, it truly takes a master to do that.

This is so enlightening and engaging - I look forward to every episode and this may be my favourite so far

I really like how you are able to bring the stories behind these paintings to live. Makes them even more impressing and immersive (or in this case devouring).

A video worth the long waiting! I was so impressed by the scope and the depth of your analysis of Goya’s Black Paintings👍👍👏👏

Truly, Goya was doing vent art before it was cool.

Your section on the the dog painting moved me to tears with your summary. You are a masterful orator and narrator, what you have achieved with this video is utterly incredible and inspiring. Thank you for your continued hard work.

What a fabulous documentary - connecting the history, context, and motivations of the artists all in one go, while being able to understand the paintings. Thank you!

What we get from Goya is that the more things change, the more they stay the same. 200 years later and humanity still hasn't evolved. Shame on us.

I agree… This is what we get for restricting ourselves to a construct of what is “normal” and what is not. We still look toward leaders in times of uncertainty. Even the least intelligent humans on the planet are still one of the most adaptive creatures in earth. Yet we still make the same decisions as the Neanderthals made with their underdeveloped prefrontal cortex…

It always felt like The Black Paintings were one last sputtering remark of a dying old man. His pessimism surprises anyone who comes in contact, expecting a sweet, dumbed man. Instead, he expresses his dissatisfaction of the world and how his life was a first seat view on how it came to be that way. His wit and insight are made ragged by the exasperation of his age. Yet one walks out of a conversation again feeling like they've seen some hidden side of the world only seen by the glimmer of elderly wisdom and the words that spring from within it

Outstanding work as always. Congratulations.

Thank you so much! This was really illuminating. I have seen the painting of Goya with his doctor many times at the Minneapolis Institute of Art.

This is an amazing breakdown of Goya's art. What's more, it does it in a very approachable way. A lot of the description of art gets lost in it own floweriness. That is not to say you're making it simple, but rather you aren't being as abstruse as possible (avoiding words such as abstruse). Brilliant work!
