Celebrated as one of the greatest portraitists of the Italian Renaissance, Lorenzo Lotto uniquely portrayed a cross section of middle-class sitters, among them clerics, merchants, and humanists.
Lotto depicted men, women, and children in compositions rich in symbolism and imbued with great psychological depth. The prominent addition of objects which hinted at the social status, interests, and aspirations of his subjects added meaning to each work.
With the inclusion of documents that have survived from Lotto’s own account books, this exhibition - the first of its kind in the UK - provides extraordinary insight into the artist’s individualistic style and the people he portrayed.
Exhibition organised by the National Gallery and the Museo Nacional del Prado, Madrid.

I've watched a number of Matthias' videos on this channel and I'm always blown away by his knowledge and beautiful presentation style. I hope you release more of them- he is wonderful to watch!
I enjoyed this presentation a lot. Unlike Yoda, I appreciate that an expert, extemporising without notes over an hour, can sometimes give a richer impression of a subject than a more structured presentation. Although there's a place for both, of course. Thank you National Gallery for posting this free video lecture! I look forward to visiting the exhibition.
Matthias’s coverage was so total . He took us on a virtual trip travelling like Lotto and presented the painters insights at various stages of life so beautifully.
Enjoyable and informative talk about Lotto, probably the first with drone footage scattered throughout.
Thank you very much NG to organise such a great exhibition and offer this great introduction. I enjoy this lecture enormously and am most grateful!
I love Matthias's analysis of the paintings! Thank you for this fascinating talk.
Brilliant lecture - soft, loving and inquisitive. Amazing presenter - you feel personal connection with this rather remarkable artist. Lotto for me was always a great master, but only in the lecture he became a human being.
This is an immensely interesting presentation and a great reminder to me as to why I fell in love with art history in the first place. The two books which I have to use for my upcoming Italian Renaissance exam do not cover Lorenzo Lotto in such a positive light at all. He is regarded as a great portraitist but without watching this video, I'd never find out his art had a wicked side to it. It's a pity such a talented man was met with a sad end but it's nice to see he retained his sense of humor till the end (the table with human legs caught me off guard).
excellent talk on this Artist. Matthias does an excellent job.. held my attention the entire video.
Fantastic artist and life. Never heard of him before, but now a massive fan!
After seeing the beautiful Portrait of Andrea Odini, I do believe Lorenzo Lotto's depiction of young Hercules pissing in Venus's bathing water is his amusing attempt at satire. If so, was he the first?
Oooops, I meant ODONI; SORRY FOR THE TYPO.
An other great italian genius, venetian also. Ciao!
Very informative!
Bravo bravissimo. Thank you!
Lorenzo Lotto 's life and art give me the idea that he was 'one of us'. A little bit weird, odd, but full of symbolic meanings. His death in a sacred place like Loreto (inside the great Church there is the Madonna house) is also moving.
Please place more videos of mr witted he is an outstanding art historian curator
Hi Ololade, you can find Matthias's latest talk here! czcams.com/video/5Uw5CmPSvfw/video.html
Спасибо огромное. Классическая лекция искусствоведа нонче редкость. Великолепно, идеально.
An amazing lecture! Thank you.
I wish when I was studying portraiture I had listened onto this fantastic lecture. Perspicacity of the sitter's character & life experience is so important, to say the least, to be captured by the portraitist, than in a mere 2-D presentation of a person's face & body.
Very interesting!
Like his own point of view in the marry couple, thanks!
thanks for this very extensive knowledgeable talk on different painters very interesting, the only thing is that many words will have to be looked up in a thesaurus dictionary
Thank you for shearing.
Gentlemen, the sitter in 'Portrait of a Woman Inspired by Lucretia' is holding up a drawing of Lucretia and saying "Do you believe this? This is nuts." The sitter's slanted gaze, shrugging shoulders and tilted head say it all.
I am smiling.
Great!
Amazing Lecture on Lorenzo Lotto, so informative and interesting, I loved it. Just one thing that probably I've lost in the translation: Antonello da Messina was an Italian painter from the city of Messina in Sicily and not a Chilean painter. Maybe I've not understood perfectly, in this case sorry!
He pronounced the Italian 'c' which in 'Sicilian' might have sounded like Chilean?
@@sambordley2380 It could be, absolutely, thanks
Very expensive, but good, thank you.
He always give very insightful analyses to his talks, but man the stutter.
Stammer. It's different from a stutter. Stammers generate from a passion to get the words out. Geez.
@@osajohnson1957 both are interchangeable terms for "disaffluent speech" medically speaking. Lexically, stutter in US, stammer in UK. Geez.
@@ledhicks Ha ha, well done.
Matthias Wivel is a great Art History communicator plus he makes Art sexy!
When l hear this gentleman speak l think of the Irish comedian Dave Allen.
👏👏👏🌼🌻🌺🌹
The assumption of Mary occurred after the death of Jesus approximately 10 years later.. it indicates that Mary’s body was not buried at her death but taken up into heaven, with her spirit, to be with her son for all eternity.. so if she looked middle age, it’s because at the point of her assumption, she was….
Sad that so many artist end life poor
🇹🇷😍🤗💖💖💖🤗
Good talk, he got The Immaculate Conception mixed up with The Virgin Birth. Mary was conceived without sin from Joachim and Ann, her parents. Jesus was born of a virgin. Oops!
Undoubtedly, knowledgeable, you are; public speaker, you're not.
curious observer: extemporaneous speaker that is making you feel connected to the painting and painter. You know it is difficult to please everyone. Lotto came out very well.
I agree, the content is interesting but the paper in which it is packaged is full of wrinkles. There is nothing wrong in writing a lesson and then reading it in front of an audience. If one is good at "speaking off the cuff", fine, do it. If one is not, then just write the text down, it's not a sin.
I fault not him but probably the British school system (or University system). It's really a shame that it is so rare to find British people of culture who are unable to utter a sentence without recommencing it four times. Schools should teach people to speak in public, rather than just fill multiple choice tests. I don't see this problem with Italian, French, German or American "intellectuals", it really is a peculiarly British problem.
