Thank you so much for showing these pictures of these masterful painters! I almost made me cry because I want to paint portraits like that. I remember seeing a Van Eyck painting at the. National Gallery USA many years ago and was stunned at the color and and how it looked as if it was painted yesterday. They are not huge paintings either! They must have had marvelous eyesight and small brushes. I’m 92 now but still inspired and trying. Thank you again and again for keeping the dream alive. Laura
Thank you!
You are a master of improv! ( along with your genius painting style).
Could make a living just by reviewing european exhibitions..
I was chuckling throughout this video. Your comments were hilarious. I’d love to tour another museum of masterpieces with you!
When you see the latter 'work' like the black dot, only then do you realize how humanity has lost its way.
Yes, gone completely insane.
Lessssgoooo 🎉..

😆exactly! Keep humble- great video
Thanks for all the close ups of those amazing paintings, in that wonderful old city, that I know I will never actually visit myself. What museums are next on our tour? 😊 Amazing how those old paints have lasted down all the years! (That dot though!????).
I’m American too so, I really loved this one. Truly admire your work. Thank you for sharing a part of your experience. 😊
This man is a GREAT ARTIST!!! Id like do meet him one day to say it in person!
Great video Scott. You would love the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. Try to get there if you can, you won't be disappointed. Especially if you avoid the modern art section. 😃
Fantastic video- love the artwork and perspective but the personality and commentary 😙 Great job! Wanna go to the next workshop
Wait, you give workshops in Belgium?? If only I had known
I think you have it backwards, Scott: the Flemish painters were far ahead of the Italians at this time. Check the dates. For instance, van Eyck's paintings are contemporary with Masaccio, and Memlinc's paintings are earlier than Botticelli's. Compare the portraits. The Italians took almost 100 years to catch up to the Flemings.
The fact the these are labled the Flemish Primatives just demonstrates what idiots many art historians are. The Flemings were the groundbreakers in European Realism.
He is now in West Flanders, where the linen and linseed oil also come from. Oil painting originated there and has since been improved by many others.
@@tomhighsmith Well, actually, oil painting goes back to the 800s (as glazes over some kind of tempera-egg or glue), but the "Flemish Primatives" miraculously brought it to perfection in the very early 1400s. Nobody knows where their training came from; the Florentines, of course, learned from the Flemings.
Not sure if you're still over but make sure to go to Gent to see van Eyck (and pre-book tickets, 😵)
Agree! I think it’s spelled Ghent. Yes! The Ghent altarpiece. I love Belgium and Bruges. Belgium has all the things I love. Dogs. Chocolate. Diamonds. Waffles.
@@itsshepherd5618 Ghent in flemmish yes, Gent in English. Both are a great day out and if you like them, I recommend Mechelen also. Lower caleber but also a nice day out
Franz ??? II. Highly varnished ... Couldn't understand his last name.
Great video and my favorite work - the man with the bag is Judas with the money given for his betrayal.
Same as you, the black dog amazed me but I recognize the other painting are quite wonderful. It’s incredibly their Technic and their limited tools and materials. Thank you for taking us with you
Amazing paintings! thanks for the video!
Refreshing museum tour, thanks. I am a painter & all those paintings can sometimes be the best thing about growing old. My understanding, and discovery of their value as paintings, brush strokes, their character, Endless.
Great tour, Van Eyck, Bosch, and demon chicken man! Hoping to see a Holbein, gotta be one in town somewhere. Black Dot, meh, not.
To see a really weird mistake, check out the position of the right arm in the "Portrait of Comtesse d'Haussonville" by French master Jean Ingres, the Frick Collection.
Have you ever been to the Prado? I so highly recommend a trip to Madrid even if only to go there (the Reina Sofia and the Thyssen-Bornemisza are world-class as well, of course). One of my favorite painters is Jusepe de Ribera, and they have several of his paintings in their collection.
Thank you for the tour. Flicked on your channel, Omg. How have I not seen it, your art is gourgous! Subscribing!
Hi is possible to you to activate your cc because I need to use subtitle to understand your speaking because the English is my second language and you speak very fast. Thanks.😊
Afterward seeing that black dot made me lmao. Thx 4 the tour. There is a movie called Bruges with ralph fennes.
I spent some time in Bruges a few years ago, its a wonderful town so quiet and peaceful. By the way the artists of the 15th century were only called "primitives" in the 19th century when scholars and artists started studying them seriously.,it was not a term they would have used or understood themselves.
Appreciate the turn that I for one will probably never get to do. I have your videos and was trying to find out how much actual detail you can get then painting a large painting with 12 figures and the portrait drawing is about 2x2 inches?
Are you going to do any other workshops in Europe? I live in Spain but would definitely travel europe to attend one :) or is there a place where we can see a schedule and sign up?
I was wondering how do you oil paint a Moon like glow I asked this before but I guess you didn't see it this time hopefully you will
oh my , you are there Idol , i had my exhibition there , please visit the netherlands
This was an awesome video - loved it - thank you so much, Scott
Is it true that Samson and the Lion was actualy Sam's son and the Lion? 5:50 that is in fact a very good picture of bent eye Jim.
Why are all hands of figures tiny by comparing them to bodies?
You passed my school were I attended the lessons for 12 years.
Young Joe Biden 😂😂😂😂💀this cracked me up
' something between a trojan horse & a Segway 😅
The commentary is hilarious.
how could anyone dislike this?
let me know when you are in the netherlands
"F*cking Bruges!" I do love your paint alongs and tutorials Scott but it was also great to experience your viewpoint of a museum. I love the works of Memling and Bosch, but of course Black Dot is the winner.
Ha! Made me think of the movie, too. “And I’m still in f*cking Bruges!” Head for Amsterdam when you’re are up there, Scott, as others have recommended.
more of these types of videos please
Ask for the name of the color.
Love how at 15.11 you say about all these people milling about ......beside a mill 🤣 ( not a segway)
Super video Scott, thanks
This is the best museum guide I have ever seen. Your take on the primitives is fresh and new and very entertaining. I was in Belgium this week and would have loved to meet you. What did you think of the groningen museum? Mandrini's buildialone is worth the bother. Looking forward to more of these. BTW if you travel to rotterdam I will gladly buy you lunch.
Groeninge is pronounced 'hrooninge'. Oe in Dutch/flemish is oo in English. Hope youll be back and ill try to attend your class. Any plans to come to Holland?
This was great, I could watch hours of your museum visits. I hope it becomes part of your content repertoire!
I can't believe you were doing a workshop in Belgium and I missed it! Enjoy your stay!
amazing artworks
Masterpieces and ridiculous abstracts don't fit together in that beautiful building, thanks for the tour
Thank you! Love the paintings and your humor! 👌🫶
😂😂😂😂😂 really
15:33 😂🐕
Scott, inserisci i sottotitoli grazie
great art before the woke generation,,,keep disney away from it. they will paint them black
It is a beautiful coincidence that I watched this video.. This channel is useful for teaching drawing.. Be careful why there is no translation into languages. My language is Arabic and I do not understand English well. Please activate the translation... I will be grateful to you, dear sir. 🤍🖐🌷
Nice funny interesting!
