I don't know alot about art. I just know what I like when I see it. The self portrait of Elisabeth Vigee LeBrun is stunning. I could look at her all day. Great video! Thank you 🌻

30:31 the famous French female court painter Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun isn't holding an EASEL (that's the often wooden contraption/stand that painters put/rest their canvasses on while they are painting). What she is holding is called a painters PALETTE on which they hold & mix their paints.✌🏻☺️. I love & I am very grateful for your channel, where you take us with you on your Museum tours. As, these days, I'm housebound due to several chronic illnesses (MS). Luckily I did visit many of these beautiful museums, in the past. But thank you for taking us to these places, some of us cannot (no longer) go. 👋🏻from 🇳🇱.

I’ve got my next 3 NG videos planned! Bronzino will be in my “Strangest Paintings in the NG” video. Constable is in this video, btw. The Hay Wain.

You definitely need to go to Versailles! I would definitely watch that video. It's incredibly to hear that only 22 portraits are by women... I very much doubt that others lacked the potential talent of their male counterparts, but more likely the patronage and time. I like that in more recent times, other forms of art/craftwork have been elevated to a place of recognition.

Most of the female painters had fathers or husbands who were painters, which gave them an opportunity. I’ll be talking about it more in the future!

I found the execution of lady Jane Grey absolutely amazing when I saw it there last year

I love the variety of paintings you showed in this video and learned so much from your clear explanations of style and content ... more please 🥰

I’ve watched your first video of top before going to National Gallery for the first time yesterday. Great selection indeed. Unfortunately, the boy bitten by a lizard and rokebuy venus weren’t on display. I instantly became an art lover yesterday. I always believe that art is the most profound expression of one’s emotions, and I just had this belief confirmed yesterday. Gazing at those paintings almost shows you an open window directly through the artist’s heart and thoughts during the times the paintings are being made. What a joy. I certainly need to go back for more.

Ive never seen your channel but i really enjoyed the upload. Mine is just being silly. I love art. And gush all the time. Actually i wished i lived closer to a museum or gallery.

London is always a great trip!

You re doing a lot of good by making these type of guided tour of art museums. Especially one as prolific as the London's National Gallery. Some of us haven't had the privilege to visit there. I hope you'll do this more often with other masterpieces. Not just paintings, but also the sculptures, East Asian arts, and decorative arts too. So yeah, definitely more art museum. I'm not much for any other kind of museums, though.

JMW Turner's "Rain Steam Speed" belongs on your list.

Another absolutely wonderful selection of very varied paintings, and a fascinating series of short art history lessons as well. Thanks for another great video. I actually went to St James's Park a couple months back, and unfortunately the pelicans were all locked up in quarantine on their island to protect them from avian flu. All except one indomitable bird that was still loose. I'm sure there's some kind of interesting story there.

Great suggestion! Part 3?…

The National Gallery is one of my favourite galleries, but sadly I don't get many chances to go to London now. Maybe I'll need to try and remedy this next year. You've covered some of my favourite pictures here - I remember the first time I saw the Wilton Diptych, for example, and thinking how beautiful it was. Works of art are very subjective, aren't they, and can be quite polarising. I'm going to have a look at your fist episode of this series now. And yes please to a Versailles video!

Delightful! Thank you!

Yes go to Versailles and don't forget about the two teachers from England who visited there I think before WW2 or after they were Maybury and Jourdan and they saw the ghosts 👻 of Marie Antoinette and her court while they were there...If you don't know who they were they made a book called I think A Trip Through Time or something like that
