Such a great painter, full of humanity.
Really agree. And I'd never fully appreciated how he captures the personality sitter through their attitude - a pose, for example. He's not so much delving into the subjects psychology like Rembrandt as capturing their humanity. This show was a treat!
Thank you so much for sharing this. I went yesterday and I was stunned. The video, good as it is, cannot show the skill of rendering the fabrics, the lace and the sitters' expressions. I love the casual and natural stances - they just don't appear "posed" and to see people smiling and laughing is so unusual for that era. When you consider how stiff and formal most portraiture was in that age, it's all the more remarkable. You feel you could brush the hair from their faces, cuddle the children, dance to the music and stroke the enviable folds of brocade and lace fabrics. I now want to visit the Frans Hals museum in Haarlem and I am very glad that the National Gallery put on this wonderful show. It made me very happy.
I am so glad you got to see it before it closed - wonderful, wasn't it. Everything you could hope for from a Hals show. Also, you are so right - the videos can never replicate the experience of pushing up close to a Canvas and seeing the brushwork for yourself. That's why I produce them - to encourage people to get out there and see for themselves! The Frans Hals museum is a must see - very atmospheric. Also, the Hals show is transferring to Amsterdam from February to June but even when that is not on, the Rijksmuseum is on the Hals trail too. Thank you for watching.
I’m really glad that you have shared this. I love the warmth in Hals portraits, not showy, but genuinely humane and unpretentious. Beautiful work.
Thank you so much. It is pretty much the whole show because I couldn't decide what to leave out! Totally agree - a master.
I'm still smiling. I have been an aspiring portrait painter since I was very small. Frans Hals was one of my first crushes. I remember trying to crawl into the encyclopedia to get a closer look at the Laughing Cavalier. I was smitten then at 8 years old and I am still smittened. I am off to look and see if I can find where this show will be exhibited in the US I have to see it! Then I will watch your video again. Thank you.. Thank you..
Looks like I missed it. It didn't make it to the Southeast US where I am. Thank you again for sharing. 🤗
Thank you so much for watching - such a feel good artist and it's crazy that it is the first major survey of his work anywhere for over 30 years. The last show reach D.C. but sadly this one is transfering to Amsterdam and then Berlin. I am really surprised it's not heading to the States because a lot of the loans have travelled from the US (and one from Canada). Hopefully a Frans Hals exhibition will be launched there soon.
Truly one of the greats. The Laughing Cavalier alone is worth the trip. See it!
Really glad you liked the exhibition when you visited. It is perfectly balanced.
Perfect Video! Music is an excellent addition. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for watching. An wonderful exhibition!
Great video! I’m visiting the exhibition in Rijksmuseum tomorrow. I’m excited!
Wow, lucky you. I would say that I hope you enjoy it but I know you will! (as long as it is not too busy). So many masterpieces.
Спасибо огромное вам! И музыка подобрана чудно!
Thank you for the kind comment and for watching!
Thank you George for another splendid video. Look forward to the Frans H show
Thank you so much. A very memorable exhibition indeed. I very much hope you enjoy it. There's nothing like seeing them in the flesh - especially the wonderful shades of black on the clothes of many of the sitters.
Большое спасибо. Видео вполне позволяет представить и концепцию выставки, логику наполнения залов и главные шедевры, особая благодарность за съемку парных портретов. Всех благ Вам. Спасибо.
I missed it! But this review of show was wonderful. Will look for a few of the paintings at NG and perhaps even get to Wallace!
Thank you for watching. Definitely get your Hals fill in London. On the off chance you can go, it is on in Amsterdam until June. www.rijksmuseum.nl/en/whats-on/exhibitions/frans-hals
Thank you so much for your efforts in creating this magnificent video. I am going to see in May.
Thank you for watching. Enjoy Hals in Amsterdam!
I remember seeing some of his paintings at the Rijksmuseum, very good.
Definitely - there are several choice loans from the Rijksmuseum in the show, which were a delight to see.
Great content! Thanks for sharing ❤
Thanks so much for watching.
Many thanks.
Thank you so much for watching.
Great video thanks. Whats the music that is playing behind
Thank you for watching. The first piece is by Christoffer Moe Ditlevsen and is called 'The Break of Dawn.' The second piece is a String Quartet in F major.
You are excellent! I wish I could “like” this vid’ 1000 X!
Thank you so much for watching and kind words. This show was such a highlight and I'm already planning to go back!
Good video. Looking forward to visiting later this month. Visited the Haarlem house in my early teens some 65 years ago. Btw, showing my ignorance, what was the accompanying music, which loved?
Thank you for watching and I hope, very much, you enjoy when you visit. The music was String Quartet No. 5 in F Major, K. 158: Tempo Di Menuetto Part 2.
Thank you
Thank you for watching.

Great video. What is the piece of music at 8.00 mins called?
Thank you for watching. The piece is called String Quartet No. 5 in F Major, K. 158: Tempo Di Menuetto Part 2. It's a traditional arrangement which I found after a search on Epidemic Sounds.
Thankyou! @@artgalleryexplorer
