Great Art Ep.5: Pietà (Michelangelo) | NTD Arts & Culture

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Michelangelo was a visionary artist who thought of himself first and
foremost as a sculptor. He dealt as much with spirit as matter in his
art, and retold stories everyone knew in ways that forced us to see them
with fresh eyes. He took the tradition of the pieta and turned it into
something eloquent, poetic. Still in his early 20s, the young
Michelangelo worked with his mind as much as he did with his hands to
reach for his philosophy of perfection.

    The antiquities in the old masters are breathtaking beauties, and they shall prevail forever. The so-called contemporary “arts” are pitifully temporary

    I saw the Pieta at the 1964 World’s Fair and to this day I feel incredibly moved by it and the experience.

    I believe Mary's hand is expressively outstretched to show the question of the great "why" she is in every way sinless and asks "why" anyone would sin and cause her son to suffer and die. The outstretched hand is eternally asking us to think before we would sin and add to the reason for his suffering.

    To create something so stunning as the pieta out of solid marble is miraculous.

    One small point to wander, that is, if Muslims would have been succesful in they effort to conquer Italy in 1480 all this would have been lost, all Italy would have been a waste land filled with Mosques and minarets, no Michael Angelo, Leonardo, no St Peter Basilica, no Baroque, Nothing that people flock to Italy to days to visit for, would Exist.

    I have been brought to tears by only two objects, and the Pieta is one. It is absolutely the most beautiful object I have ever seen. This is a great episode, but the gentleman who narrates, his voice and manner of speaking is very distracting.

    Perfect explenation. Now i did already explain a similar way some year ago. BUt It Is very good anyway. A full meaning of art and religion in the pietà.

    Mary holds Jesus in death the same way she held Him at His birth . She tenderly cradles her son at the end the same way she did in the beginning.

    I had always assumed that it was a sort of metaphor of the young mothers knowledge that he would be crucified, a sort of look into the future. I had thought thats why she looked so young

    The Pieta depicts Venus and Adonis, the hands show that they were lovers.
