Talent vs. AI: Recreating the beauty of Gothic Chartres Stained Glass
If you ask major AI software whether it’s possible to replicate Gothic stained glass windows, the answer is a resounding no-this art form is nearly impossible to recreate with modern techniques. But today, I want to show you how three brothers from the Fratelli Tomanin Art Glass Studio in San Bellino have achieved what many consider impossible.
Welcome back to Exploring Art with Alessandro! I usually focus on original works of art, but I recently discovered something extraordinary: the Fratelli Tomanin Art Glass Studio in northern Italy has faithfully replicated, in size, design, and materials, the three stained glass windows of the Chartres Cathedral. In nearly 900 years, no one has attem...

it's so moronic and unnecessary.
thank you!
You're welcome!
In short use whichever you're most comfortable with. I prefer BCE and CE since I subconsciously knew it was mostly similar enough and I prefer being neutral.
Thanks for sharing

Thank you for sharing
beautiful seductive forbidden erotica.

Thank you!
Alessandro delivers a wonderful, insightful lecture on Artemisia's famous painting. Excellent presentation. Anyone who wants to know more about the life of the Baroque artist might consider watching Jennifer Dale's short film, "Becoming Artemisia," available free on youtube.
Thank you
Well done with the video. I had no idea about bce and ce but I’ll be sticking with the originals. Thanks for your work!

Thank you!
I have to ask? what is common over these years?
Still AD and BC
😂🎉❤🎃🎆🎇
Thanks
You are good bro. Thanks
Thanks!
You said perfect square when you meant perfect circle. Perhaps perfect globe would be even better.
no, I said "...the use of the two most perfect geometrical figures: circles and squares" and talking about the inside "...the internal space is so geometrically perfect to accommodate a perfect sphere..." "Globe" is not a geometrical object, the right name in geometry is "sphere"
Just how many ethnicities have lived in iraq over the years?
Mesopotamia, the region encompassing modern-day Iraq, has been a cradle of civilization for millennia. This long history means numerous ethnic groups have likely come and gone over time.
Very well done Alessandro! It was a joy. Subscription. Like.
Thank you!
❤Thank you
Thank you for watching!
I challenge any artist today to remake this masterpiece
It would be challenging for sure
Thank you so much for enlighten us with so many interesting facts regarding to this beautiful work of Gian Lorenzo Bernini.
Thank you so much for watching and sharing
This was a great analysis and back story. Thank you
Thank you!
I think she saw the first one and thought "let me put the truth and raw emotion of what the female felt into this picture". The original is unbelievable. Beautiful but unrealistic ironically. Her version is capturing a truthful and gruesome scene.
Yes, I agree that Artemisia probably put a lot of her feelings and emotions in this work of art
I love you ❤ thank you for exploring and discussing art with me.
Thank you for watching!
thank you for this amazing work!
Thank you for watching and sharing!

When I was 15 back in 1975, we went to Rome and back then you were allowed to approach the PIETA and touch the base. It was an amazing experience for this teenager. A few years later some IDIOT approached the statute and started hitting it with a hammer. Now it sits behing protective glass.
Thank you for sharing
Nice opinions
Thanks
Hey, I was wondering, since A.D. is short from Latin why B.C. is short from English? Every language uses different short for before Crist in their native language. Why aren't every one using Latin C.N. ( ante Christum natum)? I just find it very counter intuitive and confusing.
Hi, I know the use of both Latin and English sounds a bit confusing, but we are talking about rules decided centuries ago. If it helps, you can use BCE/CE, which stands for "Before the Common Era" and "Common Era."
I love your videos! You are very insightful and erudite yet completely understandable. As for the horse showing his rear end to us, this seems to be a long tradition in Italian art. Think of the dog's rear in Mantegna's frescoes in the Camera degli Sposi; Paolo Uccello's horses in the foreground of the middle panel of the Battle of San Romano, and I'm sure many more!
Hi Gina, Thank you so much for the compliments. I really appreciate your kind words and your insightful comment. You're right: in Renaissance painting, we can find several examples of animals painted from behind. This is especially true in group scenes like Mantegna's Camera degli Sposi, which you correctly mentioned, or in scenes depicting battles, where we can find several horses in various poses. However, this is precisely part of the goals of Renaissance art, which aims to represent realism as much as possible. Nevertheless, it should be noted that, in all these circumstances, none of these animals are the protagonists in the paintings/frescoes, as is instead the case with Caravaggio.
