the background team is also great making this video with the master Waldmar, specially the camera man and background music producer... 100 out 100..

I play Waldemar's videos while I work on my own art. I don't mind repeating videos, either. Some I've seen half a dozen times but the information is so dense I learn something new every time.

I just bought a book on the history of art , virtually compelled by Waldemar‘s videos to learn more and more about art.

Outstanding presentation of Venice, history, art. Thank you Waldemar, you transformed Art Masterpieces into divine spheres. You are magician.

That is my home, y'all. 😊

"A series of islands floating on the edge of reality, just like Venice". I love it.

Yet another great film from Waldemar's, just love his style and humour. One hour of education and entertainment.

Waldemar Januszczak is such an amazing host. I usually hate when hosts put a lot of themselves into the documentary, but I am actually always interested in Waldemar's opinions and his way of presenting the information.

I wish I had this guy's job. Travelling around the world visiting great art is my idea of a dream. I am lucky I live near one of the greatest art museums in the USA, but I doubt I will get to visit any more art in Europe in this life.

Watching his videos and commentaries, I learn, and laugh, and love Waldemar's brilliant analyses ❤

Love Venice. Love listening to Waldemar. What a way to spend a Saturday evening. Ace.

That's just it - I cannot fathom why in this age of covid anyone would want to go out. (aka young people partying) ....there is so much online that now we do not have to leave our living rooms to enjoy life.

Simply marvellous by Waldemar and his team for their effort in research planning studying and above their studied presentation in getting us engrossed to every following word . No second is lost in this beautiful video. Thanks Waldemar for having turned an hour to a minute.

Thank you for making this film. I appreciate Waldemar showing his viewers that the Renaissance art was eccentric and messy at times. The whole video is full of myth busters. The plague churches give me hope. I thought this COVID 19 pandemic was the end of the world. It was so comforting to see that pandemics are normal. I'm a new Catholic. I know almost nothing about the saints. Waldemar tells us St. Rock is the patron saint of plagues. Now I know whom to pray to for help. I also appreciate all the large figured women in the paintings. My family has been controlling my weight and body shaming me my whole life. The large women in these paintings in this video dispell this myth that we must be skinny to be healthy and attractive.

Remarkable , a privilege to see while listening to you . Compliments !

A lovely detail about Venice is that it is home to a Fine arts college, and there are impromptu concerts and modern arts exhibitions everywhere. Usually no charge but carry something to drop in the plates or hats.

Waldemar could describe grass growing, paint drying or read the dictionary and I’d still watch.

These videos are phenomenal! I love them. They are educational as well as humorous. Bravo!!

Fantastic program. Venice is the most magical city on earth; there's no place like it. Everything is a beautiful work of art, slowly crumbling and melting in to the sea.

Magnificent, a work of art in beautiful words.

LOVE this one!! Thank you!

Another eye opener.

very helpful and educational videos , as a rt student i love this !!

Absolutely fabulous, every sea, sky & dreams minute!

That shifting colors fabric is gorgeous. I couldn't find it on Google under the name he called it. But I did under "two toned silk".

Le Titien est notamment et également l'un de mes artistes peintres préféré. Ainsi que le Tintoret, Véronèse et Bellini.

Thank you for your effort.

Oh là là, Waldemar goes soft porn à la Renaissance, as only Waldemar can! @ 7:32 "Venice is made out of 116 islands, all of which's been connected-up like a quilt to create this thin strip of solidity sandwiched between the sky and the sea....There's nowhere else like Venice, floating off the coast of reality and these delicate, whispery, fragile moods soaked into Venetian art and made it unique....There's a word for this mood you get in Venetian art: Poesie. It's sort of poetry but with mystery thrown in, so you are never sure what you're looking at." **sigh** I just love what this man says and how he says it. I'm a Waldemar groupie, fer sure.

Saint Marks Square is where I began too! But, very soon the waters came in, so I got up on scaffolding and was ushered through the Church and out! So then I took a boat ride through the city gutters of sewerage. At least the boat driver was young and cute. I'll tell you later about the fun back into the canal ways! Hah! Oh yes, pigments, paints and porno. That's what art is about! Venice, art and sex!

Waldemar, you obviously did not read Yigael Yadin's book about Bar Kochba the 150AD Jewish rebel and the beautiful glass plates found in Babta's cave, which gave him an urge to pick them up and look at the other side, to find "Made in Japan". .

@ 33:58: "Now, the Renaissance was supposed to be this great rebirth of civilization, a triumph of knowledge and all that. So, how come it was so interested in the bed hopping antics of Zeus? Well, one answer, the obvious answer, is that it wasn't really a rebirth of civilization at all, and that the forces coursing through the Renaissance were the same old darknesses that have always coursed through us humans."

At Marks is the chapel of the Doge, the elected leader of the state. If it were a cathedral it would be given to the pope.

interesting interputation. but there are other ways to look at these paintings. so many virgins named mary or just marys. one mary is not a prostitute but rather a "mother" of many children. children of the street. orphans, maybe just given away by moms because there wasn't enough food or some other problem. she was a mother like a dormitory mother. keeping watch over her brood of leftovers. she and her cohort yesus used these mathews, marks, lukes, and johns in the alleys of jersusalum to reap the benefits of young flesh for the interested. Not only did the disciples fish for johns. but they also fished for the unloved children of the night. Magdalene, the magic mountain woman, kept watch over the disciples using them as laboratories, incubators and pleasure givers to the men who had an itch. Magdalene the lady of oily hair. the madame, if you will, was known to the night stalkers as the pusher. the oil was a potion/drug maybe nector, ambrosia or the purple. all the marys kept the oil in their hair and washed the "feet" of a certain messiah before he and his boys indulged in an evening of the bacchanalian mystery. Even zeus got into the act as seen in Veronese's Zeus and Europa ascending into heaven. Zeus showed up as a bull and licked the "feet" of europa. certain people used the potion and were also the vessels, grails, and temples of everlasting life. you must die before you die to have everlasting life. eat my flesh and drink my blood. there were other orifices available to deliver the goods. such as eyes, noses, ears, and "feet". A crown of thorns would come in handy, too. pricking the skin caused an opening like a syringe to deliver a mary's purple rubbing oil. Or, maybe just scar the skin with an intentional abrasion that clears a path for the "relieving" agent to have its desired effect. or what some call a sign of the plague was nothing more than a self-inflicted abrasion. so johns could deliberately scar themselves and apply a potion by rubbing the opening or attaching a potion bandage.

Poor Mary; not much milk left.

I wonder whatever happened to the golden shower

Hii

What "Russia" are you talking about in 15-th century? It was Rus in Kiev that was part of Grand Duchy of Lithuania (Lithuania, Poland + Rus), small Moscow Zulus as part of Golden Horde. There was no "Russia" back then.

In The Tempest, the baby seems to be to big for a newborn.

7:54 Luckly the Spaniards never got their hands on Venice, lest they did what thet did to Mexico City.

Low on oil.

My hair doesn't do a very good job of drying anything.

Mr Januszczak gets it entirely wrong where he claims that the Renaissance was not at all a rebirth of civilisation but merely driven by the darkness of men, 'as always'. He wants to demonstrate this claim by showing sensualist paintings by the greates artists, as if to say: you see, all debauchery. He does not have a clue how the Renaissance painters transcended sensuality into art, beautifying it, and thus elevated it to a higher civilisational level, showing a human potentiality beyond the vulgar way of seeing it. Januszczak sees sensuality apparently as the old Christians considered it; dirty, bestial, low level. It is a very narrow-minded view and msises the point of Renaissance painting entirely. It is regrettable that such person is supposed to 'explain' Renaissance art, he merely represents the 20C materialist, vulgar, trivialising representation of both painting and sensuality.

Don’t buy that st mark square is Baghdad’s mosque patio, a plaza surrounded by colonnades? There are hundreds of those all over. He’s fun to listen but there are a lot of unfounded statements. Unique that art still hangs where it was intended... unique? Rome, Toledo, Mexico City are just three where that’s the rule, and Europe never stopped making glass so , it didn’t depend on the Middle East for it. In fact Germany invented glass blowing to make the orbs needed for fine round wine glasses.

True. There's some creative exaggeration by Waldemar, for sure. He's very inspiring and a poet really, and all of his statements can't be taken at face value.

We should really watch out for rodents from China...

Just wait till Cancel Culture gets to Zeus He will have them Balls Deep in Hysteria

I don´t find the ´explanation´ of Giorgone´s ´Tempest´ at all convincing. Obviously, the painter has collected various elements together to create atmosphere and beauty, NOT meaning. That is a rationalist approach contrary to the poetry of fantasy which is not after conveying a message but creating an image of the beauty of the world.

I, too, love his presentations. I just wish he didn't 'weave' back and forth....makes me nauseous, SO distracting.

If these superhuman masters of art could see what art has descended into they'd be in total despair. It also saddens me to see these great works stuck away in obscurity; and I've never understood the atrraction of paintings on celings and I never will. A total waste of talent in my humble and ill informed opinion.
