The Naples museum is absolutely fantastic. I was floored by seeing some of the mosaics I had seen in s many books and discovering how small some of them were. On the other hand, the Alexander Mosaic is even bigger than I had expected. The collection from Pompeii makes this museum a must-see for anyone interested in that site. I personally was blown away by the bronze water valves on display. Mundane items in most people eyes but pieces that speak to a high level of manufacturing skill. I need to go back and spend all day.
We agree! More to come on this fascinating museum!
You need to go back and spend all day? You need at least a week to see this Museum!
One of the most amazing museums in the world! A must see!
We agree!
It’s kind of strange…I’ve been there several times, but there is always something which I’ve missed. A spectacular museum, one of the best, if not the best(!) and I really hope, for humanity, that they have a plan B for the future, if the mountain in the region awakens again.
Thanks for a very good video! I’ll have to go there again, for sure.
Thank you. We just scratched the surface - but we wanted to be sure to shed light on the overall content.
Ci sono i sotterranei pieni di statue e reperti
@@angelinaboccadoro1879 c’e molto bene! Grazie!
European art is great! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I was there in 2015. The Alexander mosaic blew me away.
We just visited this museum in May and it was so wonderful to get an explanation of what we saw while there. I don’t think I realized so many of the pieces in the museum were taken from Pompeii and Herculaneum. Wonderful museum and well worth the visit.
I visited this museum in March with a guided tour and I was amazed that it is beautiful, you enter history 2000 years ago and it is incredible how many artifacts have come down to today in perfect condition.
Yippee! On the level of the Bayreuth Tapestry. Extroardinary.
Outstanding. Those statues clearly show that "all men are NOT created equal!"
thank you for introducing me to the Naples museum. fantastic art I wouldn't otherwise be able to see (other than photos).
Πατριδα μου αγαπημενη!
ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS. Wow Darius: you outdid yourself. (Now I have to bite the bullet and visit Florence!!) i have always been concerned about security and crime there
We thank you!
I so want to visit that museum. I would be entranced for weeks. So amazing. 😮
It really is!
@@AncientRomeLive what is your favourite top 5 mosaics you have ever seen?
I practically lived in this amazing place when I was stationed in Bella Napoli with the Navy.
I lived in Naples 1962 - 1964 and visited the museum several times. Sure has improved! Back then, there was no explanatory literature and identification signs were only in Italian.
This museum is amazing!! I have been obsessed with going to Pompeii once I saw a documentary about it. This spring I have finally visited Pompeii, and was a bit upset to find out most of its valuable mosaics and exhibits have been transferred to the Napoli museum.
So for those planning of going to Pompeii, keep this in mind, and allocate an extra day for Napoli. Also, one day in the ancient city is not enough if you are planning to visit all of its famous villas and sights.
Great video! I've been to Rome but never to southern Italy, and have always been fascinated by ancient, especially Roman, history. The statues are so amazing, though odd in a way with all the naked men and mostly covered up women. Our modern American culture is much the opposite! As an animal artist, I loved the life sized bronze horses. Stunning!
It’s worth the effort to travel south!! Napoli, Paestum, Pompeii - and so much more! Watch our Via Appia series as well!
Revelatory! My parents took me to Pompei as a teen, but never the Museum, and even then I'd rather it had been the other way around. You completed one of my life's adventures, I'll be following up with research.... You work brings spectacular worth to share with us! Mille grazie Signore! Veramente!
Thanks so much!
Esse museu de Nápolis é uma maravilha Sou fascinado por arte greco romana
I have been fortunate to visit the museum twice. Your tour has added immensely to my experience l thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it! That is music to our ears!
I’ve been to Capri three times and Positano once. Each of those visits, this museum was on my list of things to do. I still haven’t made it! I won’t miss it again. Incredible.
Please do!
Amazing place could not believe the beauty of what I was seeing
Unbelievable that all of this has survived to this day. But what has been lost? Probably so very much more. Thanks for a most enjoyable video.
This looks like a must visit.
I see a collection of keys. I believe the original key is still used on the ancient doors for Temple Romulo in the Roman forum. Have you ever seen it.
Yes. Keys are "key". So much to see. And the door opening of that "Temple of Romulus" as well as the swinging open of the Pantheon doors- simply stunning!
@@AncientRomeLive they are indeed. The doors to Basilica di San Giovann Laterano are exquisite. Taken from the Curia. The details on the doors.
Darius,thanks for awsome information of this superb museum,a must see at Naples .Grazie.
Glad you enjoyed it!
In Naples.
Amazing and wonderful! We can step back in time.
Wow...Who is responsible for the recreation of Pompeii..It is so detailed...It must have taken a long time to work on
I want to go back to this Museum
Thank you very much for sharing this unique experience. The Naples Museum is without a doubt a gem. Western culture to its finest. I am in awe, the beauty in each peace of art is unbelievable. 👏Grazie Mille!
Thank you!!
It's great how he could be in a big room with only a few people. I remember when the Louvre was like that.
This is one of the best CZcams channels i ever found😍
We thank you!😊
Great museum, best news, more visits in the future
Thanks, Darius. I'm excited to visit this museum in October.
It’s a great one! Give it several hours.
This video kinda creates shiver down my spine, really amazing and astonishing. Great video, thank you
Thanks so much for this. The MANN is a bit overwhelming to visit so videos like these are more than welcome.
Our pleasure!
Lovely.
Thanks
Welcome
I think that elaborate Vase shown at the beginning from magna grecia is the most famous valuable and sought after in history
I loved that museum when I visited it two years ago. More reasons to come back NICE! Now I am moving to Florence for an year soon, and boy I will be back in force to revisit as much as possible the greater Naples area. I love that place.
Have fun!
@@AncientRomeLive I always do :)
Great
Cuanta belleza. Gracias por compartir
Great video Darius, a must see for sure!
Well done, thank you.
Excellent ❤
Thank you! Cheers!
fantastic. 👍😁
Thank you! Cheers!
Excellent
Thank you! Cheers!
Fabulous video and commentary - thank you!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it
Fantastic artwork and history.
Many thanks!
This is a great introduction Darius, but with so much to cover it would be great to see a series of videos focusing just on a few areas of the NNAM in each video.
Also I've often wondered how did they remove and transport whole frescos or entire rooms and/or floor or wall mosaics to museums without them falling apart or crumbling?? Would maybe make for an interesting video subject.
I've been to Pompeii and Naples a couple of times but never made it to the NNAM. I must remedy that next time I'm in the area. Thanks for all you do, it's so fascinating!
thank you. Yes, more indepth material on the way.
It's an art to lift out mosaics- would love to cover that.
Please do make the trip. MANN is fantastic!
Fantastic video...loved it
Glad you enjoyed it
Fortunate to have spent a day in this magifico musei. Bliss!
Absolutely amazing, to see all of those beautiful things. Thank you for taking us there. ❤❤❤❤
Our pleasure!
Extraordinary!!!. Very beautiful things!!!. I will visit this place.
Please do!
Wow. Next time in in Campagna I will go
The moment i saw 5:50 minute first came to mind ROME! What a fantastic video, thank you very much.
Thank you very much!
Once restored all treasures to be put back this national park belongs to the king
The newly reopened Campania Romana section is particularly impressive, revealing a depth of culture and daily life often overlooked
A nice tour of an interesting venue.
Thank you! It's such an important collection - and overwhelming- like the Vatican Museums. So an intro is worthwhile, we think, for people to plan future visits. It's a must see!
After viewing several Ancient Rome Live videos, I have come to the conclusion I must spend one year in Italy to see everything once and some twice.
One life is not enough!
One life is really not enough, but at least it's not even a bad thing ☺
Great video as usual . If we ever get back to Italy that’s the first place I would like to go . Grazie .
I took a city bus that seemed to zig zag over hills and through every neighborhood to see this museum. When I got there it had already closed at 3 or 3:30--if my memory is correct. I wasn't too angry. The bus ride meant I saw parts of town I never would have seen.
This is awesome dude!
Glad you liked it
3:30 Wow!
Bucket list in Naples home of my ancestors.......
Darius, another great video! The MANN is wonderful. I've been a few times, and wish I could get back for the Alexander exhibit, so I am definitely looking forward to that video! I am just sorry I didn't think to come say hello to you at the American University in Rome when I was at the AAR just around the corner (2018-2019). Maybe I'll get a chance to meet you at an AIA/SCS conf. and thank you in person for all the great videos that keep us Roma-philes from feeling too homesick!
thanks a lot! dar@romanculture.org in Rome. Do give him a holler when you are next in town!
❤
So much man-made beauty gathered together! Thanx for video
Darius, love your videos! But why did you pronounce Latin MAGNA GRAECIA as if it were Modern Italian?
Credit that to spending time in Italy!
There is also an interesting egiptian collection in the museum.
Italy is an open air museum
The Mann is a museum with some of the most beautiful and important artifacts in history. If they merged with the nearby Capodimonte Museum they could compete with the Louvre (perhaps gathering everything in the immense Real Albergo dei Poveri) because it is true that the pictorial section would be significantly lower but the Greco-Roman section is the largest in the world.
Each one has its own special collection and location. You can expect a second MANN location in the coming years.
@10:23, what are "oskin inscriptions"? "Ox skin"? On the museum itself, I loved the collection, but when I was there about 8 years ago, there needed to be a place to sit down and have something to eat. The best I could find was a barren room with some vending machines and benches with no back supports.
HELLO YO VISITE TREMENDO MUSEO/. SALUDOS ROMANOS
Thank you!
🌿🌿☘️☘️🍀🍀🌱🌴
Planning a visit to Naples . How long should we plan for a visit to MANN to get a good review of its collections?
Two- Three hours- don't rush!
I just visited the museum....the collections are truly world class. A visit here is de rigeur for any educated person. That's the good part. The bad part: administrative incompetence, disorganization, poor customer service, deferred maintenance of the facility (broken elevators, problems with restrooms etc.). To their credit though, these problems were shared by just about all the museums in Italy. I think the worst of all was the Uffizi in Florence. It is something of a national disgrace. This would not be permitted in most European countries.
Hmm sorry to hear that. Not our experience at all.
What si written on thise scrakl sof papaeri?( forget how thats spelled lol took latin in shcool a million years ago). You ahve be so cirisou can we make out any of it or will it fall to dust or ash if we try? Experts handling ? Can we see? What were they reading?
So those are the people who plundered the ruins of Pompeii.
Were the ancient romans men really that buff and athletic like all those statues?
Probably not!
Fantastic! Thank you for showing us the exhibit. DNA tests on the busts might help identify them…
(jk)
Looks like you could spend a year making 10 minute episodes, one for each piece in the museo.
You are so right: Tazza Farnese, Caracalla statuary and so on…
It look like Greece bucause South Italy is Greece occupied from the Northern Lombard Barbarians
I AM
Interesting to note so many starkers male statues full monty yet most female statues are primly clothed.Even emperors display their naked virility to all.Imagine our current leaders doing this!😅
Huh, that's an interesting video! When visiting another city or country, every educated person must visit a museum. Visiting museums is very useful and fascinating. A love for the "eternal" and "beautiful" is awakened in a person, the beginnings of greatness and respect for history are inculcated. It is impossible to turn the excursion into something banal, ordinary and boring. The person should be a comprehensively developed person, cultured, educated, critically and analytically thinking, with knowledge of foreign languages. It is the knowledge of a foreign language that opens wide prospects for a person to realize his/her creative potential, career and financial growth. I would like to recommend the practical training course by Yuriy Ivantsiv "Polyglot Notes. Practical tips for learning foreign language", where you can find lots of useful information how to learn a foreign language quickly. Learn a foreign language and realize your creative potential on an international scale! The international community needs creative ideas! Thanks to the author of the channel for a very fascinating tour!
Thanks for watching and for your comments!
"promo sm"
why are adopting an italian accent when pronouncing some of the place names? Italians dont say US place names in an american accent, do they?
'From southern Italy' with stress on the word southern, and the word Italy almost said as a question, why? It's so distracting, why do you put these strange word stresses in? I enjoy the videos but I have to watch with the sound off.
90% or more just Greek culture
great things.
worth to visit Napoli, thank you
