Waldemar Januszczak challenges the traditional notion of the Renaissance having fixed origins in Italy and showcases the ingenuity in both technique and ideas behind great artists such as Van Eyck, Memling, Van der Weyden, Cranach, Riemenschneider and Durer.

No one is as original and imaginative as Waldemar when it comes to dry art history. He holds you captive and never lets you go on his fascinating look at the history of art.
I wish university art history courses were this interesting. I took art history in high school and it was so colorless and bland, it focused more on architecture which is all good but it's just one pillar holding up the subject. My friend took art history in college, and she said it was all pretentious fluffy talk on the part of the professors who handed out tests meant to inflate their egos more than teach history. This stuff is fascinating? I feel like art history and culture studies should be an mandatory class... at least it would be more useful than PE.
I never want him to stop talking. He's got the greatest voice and diction.
Met nadruk op dry,ja wat leert men op school goed luisteren en kijken, maar waren zij dan de ware leraren of kom men het ook op andere manieren het leren hoe men de wereld moet bekijken ,ja mijn levenslessen leerde ik zeker op een andere manier te betrachten en vaak leerde ik dat mijn vertrouwen in mensen eigelijk te groot was en dat was zeker teleurstellend zelfs gisteren nog moest ik het besluit nemen om fiks wat stappen terug te nemen het was zeker al een hele tijd dat ik dacht dat vriendschap veel kan hebben maar nee dat was blijkbaar van een kant die er zo erover dacht en dat was ik ,ondanks ik het al heel lang wist maar men moet eerst ook zichzelf ervan overtuigen dus vaak mijn voelsprieten moeten gebruiken en mijn gevoel bleef steeds haken op een punt van onraad ,met verdriet moest ik de knoop doorhakken en dat was gisteren zo zie je maar weer Waldemar men blijft op school heel je leven leer je levenslessen maar niettemin vind ik historie het verbeeldend vermogen een terugweg of met terugwerkende krachten uit het verleden beeldhouwkunst of schilders echt interessant zeker die het presenteerde ,ook al vind hij mij een van de slechtste leerlingen van zijn klas blijft dat beeldend figuur mij fascineren maar nu met al dat gekronkel zelfs gedacht als domme puber ( wel belegen😅) de Margriet bloemblaadjes eruit te trekken en zeggen ja / nee ja/nee maar durfde het niet bang voor het eindresultaat dus laat ik de Margriet haar blaadjes voorlopig nog houden ,ook zonder deze bloem marteling denk ik de uitkomst wel te kennen ,ben zelf het lijdend voorwerp 😔
@@Fablevill you can be like some people, including Abraham Lincoln by being self- taught..........especially as an adult
Waldemar is good. Because his topic is fascinating and stirring. But yes, Waldemar is fabulous.
What a gift we have in Waldemar. His wit is priceless.
Terrible panic attack. These docs help so much. His voice is steady and calm. Such a comfort.
Should try Fall of civilization Podcast
Joe Pera is great to relax!
I've now watched everything i can find hosted by Waldemar Januszczak. I WANT MORE. What an incredible series. Thank You Perspective.
I agree. His ability to normalize art and make it relate to the time period is fascinating. Loved all of his doc’s.
I totally agree. Love his presentation.
❤
'perspective' didnt make this, the BBC did
Love him
I love how the presenter sounds like he's a Children's TV host. Exuberant and wildly enthusiastic.
Came here for the art history... stayed for Januszczak.
I came here to listen to Januszczak share about art.. he is so good!!!
No kidding. 👍
This guy rules
Imagine if every teacher could make their subjects as interesting!
I love his enthusiasm and knowledge
Besides the fact, that our host, Waldemar Januszczak is a brilliant lecturer, it is his vocabulary and inflection which lend so much verve, humor and vigor to the experience of bathing in the history of Western Art. His down to earth approach wraps its tentacles lovingly around you and you have no choice but to join in with him, and jump up and down like a child in a toy / candy store. This is how one teaches. Thank you.
Oh yes, and don't forget: "...and try to forget she's wearing 2000 dead squirrels"! He may as well have said, "...try not to think of pink elephants"! Priceless!
An especially warm thanks to Waldemar, for ending this episode with one of my heroes, Albercht Durer.
That's what I just said! 100%
@Stephi Varjan I'm just curious where I can find a toy/candy store.. I'd really love some dark chocolate coated honeycomb and a few new plushies.
Vanwaar deze vreemde ondertoon men zegt dat tonen de muziek maakt ,maar dit stuk muziek zit vol valse tonen ,laat iemand anders u onderricht geven in muziek maken met dan de juiste tonen prettige dag verder nog ,nog veel te leren Stephi
@@joseffinat966 Perhaps, but we all have much to learn. Thank you.
Studied art most of my life but now because of your lectures I SEE not LOOK
at works of art, in a whole different way. I could listen to you all day and night.
Thanks for your insightful thoughtfulness discoveries.
_Seeing & looking_ are as closely related as _listening & hearing..._ really, those aspects of art are not just separate, but they're miles apart.
@@St.Linguini_of_Pesto ja Miles apart zo realistisch ben ik wel dat het om iets anders gaat daarom voel ik het ook zo niets meer of minder een studie OBJECT HET LIJDEND VOORWERP alleen mij is niets gevraagd om te poseren voor EEN STANDBEELD zeker een hele eer alleen wil ik niet voor een AFGOD SPELEN ,omdat ik de Ware God vrees omdat hij mij altijd overeind heeft gehouden dat zijn zoon ons tot leidraad is gegeven verdient God alle Eer voor ons bestaan als SCHEPPER VAN HET GEHEEL EN ALLES OMVATTEND 🙏
The producer and narrator of this series makes art available to everyone with an accessible language without violating History. This is fantastic and the result is both educational and fun. I love this series and always recommend it.
This is important history!: We owe a debt to Professor, and teacher Waldemar Januszczak. NOBODY quite tells it all, with the charm, talent, and learning of this good man! Thank you so much!
Waldemar is great in his presentation of an art history. great story teller, interactive, entertaining with a weave of great humor . Thank you for such a fantastic presentation.
not schooled in any sort of art/painting/sculpture, i find this series most educational, enlightening and just genius in its presentation. it brings me much joy in watching. thank you!
Absolutely same feelings, and I’ve been studying and making art since before I could wipe my own behind
You’re not alone. But I dare say we’re learning fast from the undisputed grandmaster of art history in any medium.
Wouldn’t it be cool if he went on tour and did live shows? Waldemar Speaks - at Madison Square Garden hmm
To those of us that were unable to attend college years ago, your presentations are a joy and a delight. Thank you many times over for these wonderful videos!
It's funny, I didn't know that a lot of art history glossed over the Flemish painters. Back when I was in college, my art history teacher, here in the States, spent an entire section on them, (referring to them as early renaissance,) and Jan van Eyck in particular. Eyck has been one of my favorites ever since. That was one of the best electives I ever took.
Waldemar is like having a close family friend...who just so happens to be one of the most knowledgeable, engaging and revelatory Art Critics and Historians on offer today.
Thank you, Waldemar, for making me fall in love with Art...all over again.
I just discovered this series with the episode about Rubens. I’m hooked! This guy is absolutely fantastic! What a presenter👏👏👏👏
So true! He's amazing... I really liked to see him in the series about the "Barbarian's Art"!
Ok cool
Me too! 😁
So blessed you are!!!!
Go discover all Waldy documentaries!!!!
Like direr the presenter loves himself too much would like to see less of him and his case and more close ups of the paintings he’s discussing
Another enchanting glimpse into the details inside the famous paintings: clothes, materials, armor, plants, landscapes, portraits, self-portraits and everything in between. Thank once again, Waldemar Januszczak: It was magical indeed.
Mr Waldemar Januszczak makes art history a work of art in itself with his imagination and great personality, not discounting his knowledge which goes to minute details we hardly know about. Great documentary indeed, worth the time invested to watch right to the end of it.
Love this guy, He tells me obscure stuff I did not know.
I stumbled upon Januszczak this morning and watched his Islamic architecture documentary and now I'm addicted to his series! what a great and passionate presenter!
Is-Lam--Het lam Gods--Jesus IS-Lam-GODS EN Israël--IS-RAEL--EL Elion Elion Eli Eli Eli God Himzelf hoe wonderbaarlijk THE LION 🦁 GOD ALMACHTIG ZO PRACHTIG 🙏🙏🙏
"Oh look... it's Durer."
Man this line cracks me up 🤣
I sit down and enjoy these art docus the way I would watch Bourdain. It's always a special time when I'm able to sink into the art work and the wonderful 🎶
We all wish we had an Art History professor like Mr. Januszczak!
Professor Kosmer, you were at least as good as Waldy!
We do have him :)
the greatest art historian ever...
waldemar makes learning about art history as thrilling as watching action movies
I must say after watching this documentary, I feel so much more better educated as well sensitive to how to view a painting. Thank you so very much for your superior presentation.
" I feel so much more better educated" I can't imagine what it was like before...
I can’t get enough! Already loved the art and history of this time period, this guy (I can’t begin to spell his name without looking), his insights and humor have me looking at what I thought I already knew with renewed enthusiasm!
Best narrator ever!!
This is the best document I’ve ever seen im for sure with the ideology of a renaissance it’s soo needed in America
I am totally hooked on this series. I have visited Albrecht Dürer's house in Nuremberg, so it was sn added pleasure (I think AD's arrogance was rather amusing. I am never going to forget about the squirrel slaughter for the woolen gown lining in the Van Eyke painting.
I can't wait for the next epidode.😊
Ja dat is zeker waar en zoiets mogen wij mensen zeker niet vergeten zo’n slachting maar het is nu in het tegenwoordige tijd en velen zien het nu veel beter dat moet zeker in ogenschouw worden genomen ,daarom vind ik Jesus uitspraak wie gooit de eerste steen niemand is zonder schuld men mag alleen op genade rekenen ,ja wij dachten voor God te kunnen spelen wat een misvatting wat een hoogmoed ,het inzien ( een prachtige woord INZIEN) in je binnenste IN-ZIEN ) ziet men al velen dat zij het IN- ZIEN SJALOM ,VREDE IS MET U EN MET ONS ALLEN MAAK EEN MOOIE DAG ERVAN 🤗
Op zoiets staat zelfs een verbod op THE next EPI-DODE verheug U niet is er gezegd Jean ross spotters huisjes branden licht en men zal het IN-ZIEN EN WIE HET NIET IN-Ziet zal het voelen ,ieder die zachtmoedig is zal de aarde beërven daarom VREDE ZIJ MET U MISBRUIK HEM NIET
“Has it ever struck you that life is all memory, except for the one present moment that goes by you so quick you hardly catch it going?”― Tennessee Williams.
This wonderful man has done so much to expand and deepen my art practice and my understanding of art, history and life. Thank you, thank you, thank you x
Waldemare and Lucy bring history alive! Love this series ... thanks for uploading!
Moet je bij Lucy zijn die woont aan de overkant doe haar de groeten ( toch maar niet )
Very hard to beat these British programs! Exceptionally paced and analysis.
Well done, Waldemar! Playing with the Venus statue and the picture of the Mona Lisa on the suitcase:
unforgettable
Come for the art history...stay to find out which giant clunky thing he will be carrying around on this episode. Great series!
Just love the way this man brings art to us His enthusiasm is catching and his opinions are spot on. Agree Miss dee Thinking he is so good as a documentary narrator.
I just love the way Mr. Januszczak tells a story.
In Will Durant's book THE REFORMATION he mentioned all these painters and I had to google all of them up and their work while reading so I could understand the book a bit better. I didn't really care for the art of 15c and always went to the impressionist section at the MET. Now after reading that book I realized that I was ignorant and now would have to spend more time in 15 and 16 century section at the MET, and this film definitely confirms it.
Knowing that Waldemar Januszczak was here in Bamberg makes this city a more special place for me.
Not only do you get wonderful art appreciation and analysis but subtle stand up comedy as well. Perfection! Should be taught in schools.
The haircut. Of course. Great to spend time with you again, Waldemar. And thanks.
There's not a masterwork in Europe left without a spray of this man's spittle.
Mr. Januszczak, I don't stop admiring the way you put your show together. From the simple approach of a view on the street to the intimacy of an art creation. Fantastic. I am retired from TV and Cinema. Congratulations to you and your team. I never saw anything so useful as the many ways to pass the message. I love the view on the ground between your shoes. The walks and the whole technique. I wish I had a team like yours for my show. Thank you very much for the many lessons you taught me in the last few years. Marc.
I love the vintage suit case! Very Paddington Bear.
My gosh the patience and talent. (The glasses part) did the paint w a single hair the DETAILS. I saw my old history book cover (17:00) and just learned 20 years later the significance of the mirror on the table. Lol. I do enjoy history. I enjoy art but can barely paint a barn wall! Leaded glass...i can do. Thank you for the tour!
Simply superb...
This is brilliant teaching, performing, creative presentation. I am fascinated
I love you,Waldemar! You bring art and history to HUGE LIFE 🙏❤️
Extraordinary, full of ideas, suggestions, images and views that challenge our ideas and trigger our imagination.
Feeling worn out today and wanted to be entertained, so this is where I went! I am loving learning this new language!
The term "flemish Primitives" is a translation of the french " Les Primitifs flamands", by which is indicated that they were the first to paint in that style. IT has nothing to do with an appreciation of the quality of the art itself
Yes, there are two shades of meaning for that word when used to describe art
Thank You!
Perhaps that is true. But then the term gets adopted by a bunch of Anglaise, very few of whom have any appreciation for anything that precedes the Italian Renaissance, and who are very aware of the connotation. So his point remains "valid", it seems to me.
Perhaps pioneers would be a better interpretation
Seems like the only people hurt by the term are right here! Most of us “Anglaise” understood it for what it was!
Best series ever. Addicted to this show like no other, Thank you Waldemar.
❤️ Waldemar. So much enthusiasm and humor. Not to mention art knowledge.
Agree with you fully! Waldemar is my favourite 😍
Mathias Brink 👍😍
What a refreshing change from the usual Art History!!
What's the usual Art History? I don't mean to sound strange, but I'd be interested to know what was meant there.
@@carolinekaye8926 textbook art history, it can get boring at times.
@@johncortez3716 yes, but what does that mean? What is textbook art history these days, authors, style, emphasis, philosophy, etc. It is so varied, I'm trying to understand what the pushback is, if at all.
@@carolinekaye8926 then I suggest you to get a physical copy if you want to see it for yourself, ma'am.
@@johncortez3716 Gombrich? Klonk? Panofsky maybe, what about Iversen and Melville, Baxandall, WJT Mitchell, Brettell, Mansfield, Prettejohn, Holly, Wood, Greenberg, Podro and so on. Which of these (and more) would you suggest? No need to patronise me, I was asking a serious meaningful question!
I can’t find something more beautiful than the History of Art❤️👑❤️👑❤️👑❤️👑❤️👑❤️👑❤️👑❤️👑❤️👑
The best presenter in my opinion!
I share your opinion !
Other presenters are more focussed on themselves, as an ego-ad ( self-advertisement) as in autoglorification.
I prefer the self-mockery of Waldemar, which makes him even more human.
@@43painter I agree, even though I prefer to call it self-distance over self-mockery, but I totally see what you mean. And yes, I love that about him, it is the love of the arts he puts first and nothing in the kind of selfishness.
Thank you for this comment! After viewing other art history videos, this presenter seems clumsy and overbearing, it feels as though he over-confidently fumbles verbally around the subject like a freshman boy trying to force open the first bra he’s touched. He seems unrefined, too loud and somewhat childish to me! Your comment helps me understand his positive qualities and see this work under a less harsh and judgmental light. Thank you
@@43painter Waldemar hits you with his presentation then steps back while you absorb the blow. He makes art so interesting and along with Lucy, they are the best presenters.
@@callumtaylor8474 This remark sounds like it came from the other Perspective presenters who are jealous of Waldemar's sparking delivery.
I just love your videos. I just recently found them. I hope you have done many. Its a treat to se them 😊
I learn so much from these, both about history and painters I'd never heard of. Love this seris!
Scour through these posts looking for Waldemar... so happy to see a new one! ❤️
I love his enthusiasm!
Me too. I only want to watch him. No one else.
I know it makes for an entertaining narrative in this documentary, but I would like to note that the term 'primitive' to designate the Flemish Primitives does not refer to a perceived lack of sophistication, but rather identifies the artists as originators of a new tradition in painting ('primitives' as in 'first').
Yeah. You did well to point that out.
It's incredible that some people take offense in that.
It's not degrading.
Looks like they haven't done their homework.
Yes .. and when folks are willfully misusingwords e.g. 'sick' meaning 'good' and so on .. I am surprised we understand anything these days ..Ohh we don't (joke) .. There used to be 'reserved words' and 'symbols' that's all gone to the wall too .. in favour of errr ill-education, anyone's opinion is sort of 'gospel' .. and the very strange idea that all these sytmes and checks and double--checks just get in the way of err thieving, corruption, greed and so on... goooddd jaawwwwwbbb
-Genus Tinca: It is *quite doubtful* that the narrator _actually_ means or thinks the Flemish artists of the period are *_'primitive'_* as it was (possibly) implied in the narrative. Rather he uses the term as a _"tongue-in-cheek"_ joke of sorts to indicate that Italians were "offbase" in their thinking by nearly two centuries--- as was pointed out in the description of the stone horse and rider carved on/in the wall of the Bavarian chapel, in opposition to the horse and rider bronze _monster_ to be found in Padua, Italy.
@@nknatewood8226 he meant that the world of art and Italian artists of the time thought of them as "primitive" as in derogatory while it never was the case.
As for the "monstrosity" as you say, I guess that's purely subjective on your part.
The host comes by as biased and controversial with an axe to grind in regards to the consideration of Italy as being the birthplace of Renaissance or the most influential.
I'm not the only one who had that impression.
Still enjoyed the show nonetheless.
@@Fox-86 : The term _monster_ applied to the Padua bronze of horse and rider is the term used by the narrator, not mine.
Agreed that he, the *narrator* , has a decided _axe to grind_ concerning the subject of just _where_ (and _when_ ) the Renaissance began, as is proved by his discussion of St. George slaying the dragon as depicted in Flemish artistic formats, both painting(s) and wooden sculpture.
Like you, found the show quite enjoyable, as were virtually all the *'Perspective'* Art History shows.
One of the best documentary narrator out there.
Just exquisite, delicious and brilliant! Authentic art in all its colors, textures and shadows that tell us the story of the Renaissance era.
Mooi uit met dat klere ding COLLIDING FORCES
I have never been able to understand how restorers know how far to go in removing color and varnish. The whole thing requires such incredible patience and talent as well.
If you start to actually see the canvas, you've gone too far.
😉
Baumgardner Restoration is a great channel for learning about art restoration! From what I have learned, paint becomes very hard over decades and centuries, and the right solvent will only remove newer paint while leaving the old intact. So good art restorers use knowledge of chemistry to the table.
Great point about technology pushing forward Flemish art. It continued with van Leeuwenhoek - contemporary of Vermeer in Delft - making the first microscopes. Painters put near invisible detail into their pictures for god, but they couldn't match microorganisms.
Waldemar makes any style of art interesting ... he very much sounds like my once history teacher
The second I heard Waldomar’s voice, I knew I was going to be smarter at the end of the episode.
His documentaries should be watched by high school and college students. Much better than school history books.
Fantastic presentation !!!!!
Tremendous work !!!!!
Thank you 🙏❤️🙏
I've lived in isolation most of my life. I've never had the opportunity to study art at length. I checked out Sister Wendy's film series on art from our library in 2004. I watched it with my children. We loved it. Januszczak may perhaps be a little elementary, but his videos are very useful to me. I've really enjoyed watching his videos.
Yes, he is covering a lot of ground. Would be most interesting to have an occasional exhaustive exploration of one artest only.
@@jpkatz1435 If you pay attention and take notes, you will notice that Waldemar cross references the artists in his other videos. This gives a very complete investigation of the artists. I like the way he explains the political agenda and general cultural atmosphere of the time during which the artist was creating his artwork. Waldemar does a good job explaining the art and interpreting the meaning of it. Each video is an art and history lesson all rolled into one. I like him just the way he is.
@@heidimiller642 I agree, wholeheartedly. Also, I don't think he's being necessarily "elementary," as was said above, but he is explaining things in a way that a much larger audience can appreciate.
Laughing, crying and wishing to be so blessed...all in one hour. What great stuff Waldemar Januszczak.
I’m American and have never been to England but man I want to. The whole place seems to like a living museum.
''So when you look at her again, in the National Gallery of London, try to forget she's actually wearing 2 thousand dead squirrels'' ... That's the only thing I'll ever be able to think about when seeing the portrait from now on.
It's probably not squirrels but ermins. And yes, maybe 200 not 2000. A very expensive fashion in any case! Ermin furs are in use still nowadays.
Thank you so much for your splendid talk on the history of art 🖼
Truly enjoy your series 🍃
A fascinating documentary, and I am so pleased that the utterly brilliant Flemish artists, and certainly Van Eyck are given ( to me ) their true and overdue consideration and praise. When I was young, the only art that counted was The Impressionists or Modern Art - realism in any form was discarded or ignored, but as an illustrator, these more recent art movements pail to insignificance.
A beautifully explained and filmed episode - very well done indeed :)
I can’t believe I don’t have to pay to watch this great, full-length art documentary, featuring a grown man playing with toys on a suitcase on the floor. 😂
Well if you're a Brit Cat, in a sense you paid for it as it was produced by the BBC.
I, as a Froggy, actually watch it for free. Thank you !
Waldemar again informs and throws in a couple of good chuckles! Great presentation, most enjoyable Waldemar!
He wows me with every series.
Thanks Waldimar and his team.
Glorious sense of wit about it all! I see a Hulu or Netflix series set in Brugges with characters who make up the naughty cloth merchants.
These episodes are phenomenal. Each one is more interesting than the last, if that's even possible!
This is just superb. It overturns academic orthodoxy in just the right way.
Waldemar is just so amazing, brings it TO LIFE! You are the best Waldemar, thank you!
I am a fan of art documentaries, watched a lot. Favorite ones are Civilization by Clark, Palettes by Alain Jaubert, Ways of Seeing by Berger, and nearly everything from Januszczak!
Met andere woorden GOED ONDERLEGD MAAR NIET ECHT 😶🌫️
Wonderfully original dismantling of idols, highly entertaining and enlightening, thank you for a new perspective of art
Great programme as usual. History, humour, style. Thanks.
As an artist, I would like to say a huge thank you to this documentary. It was presented in such a concise and objective way. So often, the documentary's "experts" seek to impose their personal *opinions* about art, as if their assessments were dictated down to them from God. Their arrogance can often curdle fresh milk. Not this time. It was informative and entertaining, showing us a fresh side of the Renaissance movement.
Yay! Love this guy!
I CAN'T STOP WATCHING THESE INCREDIBLY INTERRESTING JUWELS OF HISTORY!❤❤❤
Excellent! Beautiful and smart. Inventive, funny and erudite.
Plus...a very pleasant accent and way of narrating. Thank you
I can listen to Valdomar all day for weeks. He can teach me about arts forever. Guy's storytelling is addictive.
30 years back a failed arts student gifted me with a tiny text of these Flemish masterpieces in full colour. I realised everything I had learned in art school the 10 years previous to that, was just bullshit.This man is telling it the way it is.Finally.
its saturday and a new waldemar documentary is out, sweet
Ülkemde büyük bir deprem yaşandı..48 saattir ana vatanımı, bahtsız ve eğitimsiz bırakılmış insanlarını izliyorum..
( Yanlış anlaşılmak istemem, onlardan biri de benim belki, çünkü anlasam da İngilizce'yi iyi konuşup, yazamıyorum)
Videonuz önüme düştü.."Biraz başka şeylere bakayım, yoksa üzüntüden
hastalanacağım" diye düşünerek izlemeye başladım; ve"büyülendim" içine çekildim,halen seyrediyorum..SANATIN ve "kanalınızın gücü" diyelim..
Çok, çok teşekkür ediyorum.
Şahane.
👩💻💐🌈💝👋
Love you too, pal ;)
Simply excellent enjoyed every bit of Hit. Thanks
Absolutely fascinating. You had me enthralled with the subject. Thank you so much..
Wonderful. Makes art history come alive!
How does this not have millions of views? This series is just so good
When they showed the van eyck I was shocked. It makes you feel as though a golden age has come and gone
Yeah modern artists cant hold a candle to flemish and dutch masters.
The tiny details are astounding.
Love this channel ❤️ you just got yourself another subscriber. I'm going to spend the day and night watching as many of your videos as possible. Everything in the past interests me. How they managed without the internet and modern conveniences is something I want to know. The detail of their paintings is a testament to their talent. Just like a camera taking a picture. Our ancestors were incredible people.
I learn so much from Waldemar! The textile history is so interesting and brings the Van Eyck painting to life and puts it into its context.
I enjoy all of your documentaries, your personality makes it interesting to watch. Keep up the wonderful work you do, thank you.
We need more art history from Waldemar. Love your stuff, love your knowledge. Keep kicking butt!!
