Waldemar Januszczak continues his investigation of the Impressionists by taking us outdoors to their most famous locations. Although Impressionist pictures often look sunny and relaxed, achieving this peaceful air was hard work. Trudging through fog, wind and rain, across treacherous coastal rocks and knee-deep snow, Waldemar shows how the famous spontaneity of the Impressionists is thoroughly misleading.
This episode visits the French riverside locations that Monet loved to paint, and where Renoir captured the bonhomie of modern life. Waldemar also introduces a number of technical and practical developments of the age which completely revolutionised Impressionist painting - the invention of portable easels; the use of hog's hair in paint brushes; as well as the introduction of the railway through France. And a scientific demonstration in a Swedish snowdrift explains just how right the Impressionists were to paint brightly coloured shadows in their winter scenes, despite being accused of 'hallucinating' at the time.
Finally, Januszczak explains Cezanne's part in the Impressionist story from his dark and challenging early work to his first rural landscapes in France, and then his departure from Paris and separation from the Impressionist gang.

After decades of watching, be assured... Waldemar Januszczak is without question the best presenter to ever grace the screen. He is, at the same time hughly informative, and delightfully fun... he is without equal in his craft. My life has been well and truly enriched by this entertaining gentleman. Thank you, Waldemar!!!
Ill give him another try. Sometimes he irritates me quite a bit! Not boring anyway
Yes I agree ,moved to Austrlia and I am missing London .
Have to agree
My favorite is the Viking Ship dig doc!
I couldn’t agree more, funny informative and just great to watch & learn. Art has never been so much fun.😄
The amount of traveling he had to do to film this series is astounding.
Lucky guy
Just seeing Waldemar Januszczak show up at the _actual_ locations of these iconic paintings is an unparalleled joy in itself. His cheeky, insightful-and invariably fascinating-commentary is almost a bonus.
Bijna Bonus !! Hij is Bonus 🤗
why are his documentaries not accessable in the U K?
Waldemar reigns supreme in the world of art history.
And, he's also hilarious.
So glad I found him.
He makes art history understandable & fun.
He is such an extraordinary man. I am amazed at his descriptive way of informing and entertaining us.what a difference he has made to my life. Thank you. Walderma
I could go on and on, and on and on, but i'll say simply ~ Waldemar, you are the best.
Yes. A hearty "hear!!! hear!!!" This is the second video of his that I have watched, and I am amazed at his ability to combine his very keen insight into the art and its history with a very comfortable sense of humor. He is very good at what he does. He has made a great "impression" on me!!
@@josephpedulla7831 Me, too! And I hope he continues to make many more presentations!
Agree ...I'm obsessed and learning so much...ty
Can't dance any more than a bear can talk, but you have the BEST art history lectures on the internet. Bravo! Location, research, enthusiasm - who could ask for more? I am a HUGE fan.
Mag ik de beer 🐻
This series are one of the best i have ever seen in soooo many years. I can’t stop watching over and over again. Well done Waldemar & his crew!!!
Indeed, I put them among Mr J.Y.Cousteau, sir Y. Menuhin, Mr Bombard, Mr Kessel, Mr H. Guillemin documentaries, Bravo !
Mr. Januszczak is a story teller with few if any equals...his ingenious use of tactile visual aides not only keeps our interest piqued, it pulls us through the presentation quickly and seamlessly... he is more than a professorial information booth...he is Brilliantly Fun Entertainment...!!!
Waldemar has a rare talent to use paintings as time tunnel to take us back to history. Thanks for the great work.
I simply have to make comment on each episode. Amazing art historian, researcher and downright genius in his explanation of art, all art! His down-to-earth attitude is to be admired and praised. I studied art history at Uni for 3 years but never was it as brilliant as this.
I'm so happy that Waldemar is still alive after having walked in the shoes of the Impressionists so many dangerous paths.
That's right. Liquor, women, dancing and trists. Leisure, seasides and fun. Cakes. I'm glad he made it through.
@@constancemiller3753 Gravity, dear. You're forgetting gravity.
Thank you Waldemar for another masterpiece about arts!
You deserve Nobel prize for your presentations.💙💙💙💙
Waldemar is absolutely raving bonkers. ( In the best possible way).
This excellent series has deepened my love of art- especially those presented by Waldemar. He, like the artists themselves, will go to any lengths to get the desired result. It's wonderful that thee videos are so readily available. Without culture we are little more than animals.
I love his unique spin on Art and the history and stories behind every aspect of it. Incredible!
Finally! Thank you for making art accesible and fun!
I love this series. Waldemar Januszczak knows his stuff and presents it with pizzazz and a sense of humour, and makes it memorable! Artists are presented in such a way that helps us understand and remember their significance as well as their most famous pieces! Thank you for sharing these presentations! I loved his series on Impressionists when it was presented on public TV here in Canada & USA. Keep up the great work and hope you continue. Love discussions on details in paintings....art instructors here just tell us about the design of the works, not about their compositions. I have always been intersted in art, but did not sudy art in college. Januzczak gives me a chance to catch up on the history and development of art with my contemporaries, as I have been painting and selling through galleries and enjoying that tremendously!
@Ziad Suidan No. What I am saying is I enjoyed learning about the art and their artists, for the sake of learning more about both, not necessarily rejoicing in their suffering. EVERYONE suffers some misfortune in life, that is to be expected...life is NOT always a bowl of cherries. If you want to dwell on the dark side that is YOUR choice. It is, however, not mine. I enjoy learning about the art and artists. Period. Whether they had a hard life or not will not be changed according to how you or I feel.
If you don't like Waldemar Januszczak's presentation, that is YOUR choice. I will not argue with you. Now let ME enjoy what I enjoy!
@Ziad Suidan Just because I disagree with your point of view does not make me "not intelligent enough...". I disagree, I have my own point of view. If you are too stupid to respect that, that is YOUR problem. Not mine! I did not wish to dispute anything with anyone. I merely stated that I enjoy his presentations. Period. The rest is really none of YOUR damned business!
@Ziad Suidan Yes.
The cinematography of this video is outstanding. The framing of many of the scenes creates works of art in themselves.
I can't get enough of these awesome videos... so refreshing for the study of art history.. love this guy!!!! So informative and entertaining. Wish I had these when I was studying art history at University in the late 90's. So many art historians and teachers were so stuffy.. This is such a breath of fresh air and love his sense of humour. The pig scene was a riot!
Thank you for this! I swear I learn more from watching documentaries on artists than in actual tutorials!
The impression I've got from this episode is one of marvelousness. I had to go outdoors for a bit, but I'm back indoors again now to finish watching this to the end and my impression - in spite of the fact that the light has changed a bit - is still one of marvel.
These video's are incredibly informative and entertaining. Thank you!!
i literally had to check if this was under Waldemar's playlist before watching it 😂😂....that dude knows his stuff RESPECT🔥🔥🤟
Waldemar is like the James Burke of art history
Oh man, it was a fabulous line. This is a fantastic series. He is irreverent about Monet because Monet earned it.
Thanks again Waldemar. I can't get enough of your stories. Thanks for reliving the moments, even if you have to wet your feet, (or dance with them ladies)
Wowwwwww !!! Waldemar es una maravilla. Disfruté muchísimo el cuidado de encontrar el lugar exacto en que se hizo ese arte y el trabajo real que habia en llegar a ese sitio y entonces crear ese arte. Nunca lo hubiera imaginado. Bravo !!!
Ja daar is vaak geen kant en klaar klusje maar soms zeker gevaarlijk strapatsen ( Ukraine ) 😲👉😱 zorgelijk
Waldemar Januszczak, as an Art History enthusiast myself, I deeply appreciate the amount of work you and your team has put into these movies. It is an art in itself. I feel more knowledgeable than yesterday and your videos are truly making my brain grow and appreciate art in a whole new level. I would LOVE to see a video by you on the Propaganda Art (Postcards and Posters) and its influence on the culture. Maybe set up a P.O Box where your fans can send you one of a kind postcards - would that not be lovely?
Zal van de week eens kijken 📬
Video ?
Fan’s ? Heb er een W 😍
As a lifelong painter this guy is nailing it, it's a beautiful thing.
Brilliant!! Bravo!!!!!!👏👏👏👏👏
I only hope Mr. Januszczak is getting something for my views of these shows....because he is awesome!!!!! Thank you so much for uploading these fabulous programs!!!!
We are all blessed to have you, make art accessible to us all. Thank you, I have learned much.
He can act, reenact, entertain, and certainly dance, what a delightful piece of art to watch Waldemar, while talking about art.
Not only were their paintings beautiful but they made the rooms or houses they were hung in more beautiful. People love that and is why it takes more that technical skill to wow them.
Thank you from France
These documentary series are useful to help people understand Fine-Arts, the Artisans and Artists as well. Bravo !
Waldemar is the best art history documentarian ever..perfectly coordinated information really appreciate this immensely..pandemic lockdown savior, too!
Your videos deserve a Cannes film festival gold medals.
At least acknowledgement.. Hehehe perhaps some special prize.. It's really unique series..
This guy has me hooked - not only his wonderful voice, but how he stimulates curiosity (mostly by hauling stuff around on his back). Bravo Walde!!
Again this blows my mind...Art History University degree never even encroached on this subject...so so sad. Waldemar you are my hero...so inspired by your videos. Keep working.
As a "plein-air" painter, I found this Perspective particularily entertaining. Laughing out loud at the opening/closing segments especially, as people have no idea the difficulty, the effort, the terrain, the bugs, the wind, etc. that painting on location is. Definitely not easy! Thank you Waldemar!
So much information served up with immense wit and charm. And oh, that delicious voice!
Waldemar...you are teaching me SO much!!! Thank you, thank you♡♡♡
Love, love your programs! It is my respite, my panacea against work stress... Keep them coming!
I love this art. Waldemar's style of presenting makes a difference. Great documentary
Waldemar got so skinny during the Impressionists. I cant believe this channel is only a year old! I hope it get a million subscribers. Best art history ever!
Thank you Waldemar!
My introduction to Impressionist art was the cover of Rod Stewart's 1976 album "A Night On The Town" (the one with "Tonight's The Night" on it). This is a true story.
Thank you so much for the pleasure
of viewing all this beautiful art 🎨🎭. Thank you for posting this, lovely.
Absolutely fabulous as all this series is. No artist. photographer or painter should go without these views. An inspiring story and script, remarkable filming, exquisite editing and an art form as the main character is .
18 minutes in, so far an amazing documentary that really embodies an artistic evolution in Paris
Lovely Documentary.
Thank you for your passionate and informative narratives of art history and indeed impressionism are truly impressing. For me the paintings of water by Monet are mesmerizing - captivating a World of light in movement - somehow paintings of the World mirrored in our soul and our soul mirrored in the moving water
A atmospheric look into impressionist ascetic coated with animal hair. Bravo 1st. Class presentation. As a painter I value your videos greatly. Thank you.
Aesthetic?
Man these docs are so well done. For the past month I have slowly stopped watching my usually programming because I am so excited to go home, drink a glass of wine and start up one of these. Wish I had the appreciation for art history in high school. Also wish it didn't take a decade later for me to really fall in love with the path art has taken to get to where it is is today. One thought I have watching some of these, especially the subjects on Bosch, Leo and michelangelo is that these guys were so beyond talented that I wonder if there are modern day people that will have the same impact that are working on there masterpiece right now. Or if these people even exist at all? And I mean the impact it had in the world, not comparing apples to apples because obviously art has come a long way. I hate to mention 3 men as there were so many women that I think should have had the spotlight but in my opinion during these times women didn't get the same attention as they would have today and weren't encouraged or supported to pursue art (which even today I still believe being a man has a slight advantage purely based on sex) and sadly didn't leave there mark like the works of men back in the day. This was a rambling thought but just my 2 cents.
Really great sound editing, playful throughout the series. Bravo!
So much fun to watch!
Thank you for this... too. Most grateful for all the amazing information, interpretations & performances. Yours is a wonderful, vivid, and glorious world each and every time indeed.
Waldemar, you are amazing! You stories so captivating!!!Thanks you for your work👏
Wow!!!! So educational and entertaining. Love the snow and shadow piece, it must have taken a few days to film that scene going from day to night and back to day. Bravo! I am addicted to you, Waldemar!
I love all series. Thank you.
In Waldemar's presentation, he has s pun an impressive work of art.
It killed me to see Waldemar throw those canvases on the rocks lol. Really though, great job and thank you for the informative and interesting videos!
He's the most well traveled person I've seen
So fun, entertaining and educational!!!!!! Thank you!!!
What a comedian! I love impressionist painting and this was fun and hilarious.
super
Waldemar! It would take awhile to write about all you do here. You are a brilliant thinker and producer. You make me love the paintings even more than I did. You make me want to know more. And, you are so damned funny! Thank you!
You are the greatest! I love your series about history of art. Everything is amazing 😍Thank you so much
Lovely series, I want more and more. Thank you!
Amazing ! Thanks for this incredible series !
Truly entertaining and the best way to get people remembering things,by making learning fun ...keep up the superb work old chap ...fantastico
I loved learning about Camille Pissarro. Watching for the second ok maybe 3rd time. Such great content I can appreciate and pick up on different aspects each time I watch. Thanks Perspective!!
Thankyou!!- & Waldemar! - Brilliant
Keep up the excelent work you are doing with these videos, your style is unique and extraordinary..!!!!
Very enjoyable, Waldemar!
Its all been said, but I'm on my third round of viewing. His cheeky take on everything brightens my day1 🤟
Wow！Thanks for sharing the video！
You are AMAZING! THANK YOU..
My biggest takeaway from this is that Monet was a certified badass. It's such a shame that in his last days he was considered an outdated Impressionist.
Love this!! Merci Waldemar! U are the best...
Very entertaining and very informative, Waldemar makes art appreciation so much fun
Fascinating!
Thank you for these wonderful documentaries
This opening is one of the funniest things I've seen!
"Sack of provisions" lol I just love Waldemar.
great doc on an Art period I loved
Thank you!
He's absolutely brilliant the Art teacher you dream of
EXCELLENT ART SERIES AND RICH DEEP, YET SIMPLE VOCABULARY FROM A PROFESSIONAL
What a great lecture.
amazing,, entertaining, informative, wow, thanks!
what fun!!
So interesting how you explain things!!!!!😊
Now I must add an apology, because I enjoyed this thoroughly, and the whimsy and risk-taking is much appreciated. Sorry.
The intro song grows on you, too. I didn't get it at first. Now I do.
Brilliant!
Very much appreciated!. Please number the presentations; it's confusing and hard to find and watch in order. Thank you again for the "perspectives" on impressionism.
Amazing
THANK YOU
Waldemar is the David Attenborough of the History of Art.
great visuals, narration & art. Loathsome music
What would we do without Waldy, during the current Socio/political/pandemic Crazies? Cheers from Wyoming, mate! 🥰
