Oh wow! This was my pack I submitted, I am so glad that people enjoyed it. Thank you for showcasing, Vinny - I will now forever think of Edward Hopper as the Liminal Man. I greatly enjoyed making this pack and would love to put together another sometime.
this is so much better than "look at spookie paintings i found" segment i was expecting! the history and explanation of the art pieces are really appreciated!
i’m looking forward to another! it was an impressive variety that was tied together thematically by the focused informational abstracts. your writing was so professional it really felt like being guided through an exhibit
That forged Smiling Girl is genuinely unsettling. It really does feel like some kind doppleganger that doesn't understand what human emotion it's trying to replicate.
I was looking away when he changed to that picture, and I only looked up because went silent for a second. Imagine my surprise to see that image when I was fully expecting another train photo. Actually sent a chill down my spine lmao
Art should be shared in whatever ways are possible. There's no reason why livestreams shouldn't be a part of that. Honestly, this makes me kind of emotional. Props to the curator for providing all the information, and to Vinny for the genuine interest in it!
I'm loving these rather educational, story time segments, and I particularly loved this one. in the midst of the autogenerated slop invasion it's so important to remember actual art, what it looks like, and what it's saying to us. why it matters. that you use your platform to just sit and appreciate these for a bit, make them known, makes me very happy as an artist
Theres a lot more to that van eyck. If you had a higher quality scan, you'd see the roundels on the mirror reflect the life of Christ- but the events of his death and ressurection are all on her side, and his life on the man's. Then you have the candle, snuffed for her but lit for him, the dog at her feet, a common Medieval Christian motif on womens tombs as a protector in purgatory, the man's mourning dress, the blossom, symbolising fleeting life in the Middle Ages, outside the window, etc. From records of Arnolfini, it seems his wife had died before this was painted, and so all this hints at the work being a tribute to her life. Look at how their hands are so tentatively touching, like she is about to slip away. Van Eyck is a really wonderful artist, and made many poignant religious paintings.
We recently covered this painting in my art history class. My instructor pointed out that there is more than one person visible in the mirror, that it's meant to appear as if the man and his wife are welcoming guests into their home. Rendering the reflections of mirrors was also part of a larger trend of painters looking to "delight" the viewer by fitting an image inside of another image.
@@punkst3r "Delight" was mentioned by some of my professors as well, but in a graphic design sense. It's a good catch-all for neat little things you only notice on close inspection, the like bear in the Toblerone logo. It makes the viewer feel clever for having noticed it and more likely to spread word-of-mouth over your work
“The Hands Resist Him” is a fascinating work for a couple of reasons. Firstly and most obviously it’s a good example of how a tale grows with the telling; the painting started generating its own mythology. Secondly, it is a very clever object. It invites you further and further into unsettling details. It is not immediate - it seduces you to keep looking at its intricate details. Wonderfully uncomfortable, as art should be.
It DID achieve a cult status in the early 2000s. I remember it being a central point of a Horror Flash-based point-and-click story. If you stared at the painting long enough in the game after fulfilling certain criteria, literal hands would come out of it and kill you.
@@Atylonisus Yeah, the painting was everywhere back in the day after that viral Ebay listing claimed it was haunted. It's one of the many creepy paintings in the "Haunted Forest" mod for Left 4 Dead 2, for instance. I wish the other paintings in the series got as much attention, they're all so good.
29:12 this is honestly a concept I fantasize about alot, like imagine going up to davinci and being like "yo here's aesprite" or giving that oddada game vinny played a while ago to a classical composer. Like just the thought of exposing these legendary creatives to tools they never imagined just sounds so fun.
To be fair, the Erebus and Terror were both originally ships of war. Not like the Royal Navy was like "What's a good name for an exploratory vessel? Ah yes, Terror. Sets the mood."
I understand that they're not for everyone but I personally love these segments that aren't related to video games. This, the ET encounters, strange sounds, etc.
This was a strange and wonderful segment, and I'm really eager for more like this. Almost all of Alex Colville's work looks similar to low-poly computer graphics. My town actually has an permanent outdoor gallery of his works.
8:26 I'm not surprised a cat would do that to protect a human baby. There was a much more recent story about a stray cat named Masha in a city in Russia. She wrapped herself around an abandoned baby in an alleyway to keep him warm and meowed as loud as she could to get the attention of passwerby. When the baby was found and taken to a hospital, Masha ran after the ambulance the whole way. The kid was healthy and the cat was showered with treats by her neighborhood. Cats want to protect their colony's kittens! Their human friends and family are included in that.
@@arandomyoutubecommenter728The unbiased answer is that Vinny wasn't feeling too great about it The biased answer is: Attention horses and parasocial people ruined it
@arandomyoutubecommenter728 Iirc there was just so much art coming in that Vinny just couldn't get to it all without taking an egregious amount of time; people who weren't getting featured started complaining, so he dropped it. I was on an art showcase I think twice? It was cool but to be fair he did hundreds of them.
Some chat member need to see more historic art just because they look strange it doesn't mean its AI lol. The amount of chat member spamming AI just because some art have weird proportions is insane I mean they are strange for a reason
I love these streams WAY more than most of the games. Strange noises, weird stories, radio signals, space oddities, found footage, nightmares from the mind of AI, odd artwork, numbers stations, just things like those in general. Never stop these weird segments.
Was lovely looking at some weird but beautiful and eery paintings (and photographs at the end), some familiar with, some not, but all a joy to hear a small history on them. Despite being familiar with and having seen the Van Eyck a number of times, Arnolfini's face specifically was very uncanny, almost like it was stop motion plasticine and that his eyes would look towards the camera at any minute. The forged Smiling Girl though was the most horrifying, I had to scroll the video part way down to not meet her gaze. Thank you for this little look of some beautifully haunting art and it's history, would love to see more
As for the Van Eyck, the Early Northern Renaissance (the movement Van Eyck was part of, also called the "Flemish Primitives") was a independent artistic development, separate from the developments made in Italy that emphasized "Renaissance Humanism". So the movement is considered an evolution of "International Gothic" art; in spite of the naturalism and realism shown in the figures and the use of perspective, non-realistic stylizations more in line with Gothic Art still can be found. I hope this information helps a bit.
Electric State is a great art book to look into. Post-apoc USA with giant mascot robot corpses littering highways and some crazy liminal vibes goin on with it.
The man's face in The Arloni Portrait is so disturbing and uncanny, I love it. I hope this segment lasts, I enjoyed discovering new pieces with Vinny a lot.
13:00 this is exactly why this segment is so wonderful. Learning about what came before, we see the genetics of the things we love now coming from far back, with far greater richness than we know. Everything is connected to history bigger than we can imagine from our small point of view in the current moment. Its such a pleasure to get to enjoy modern takes on genres and ideas, but also to see what inspired them and what inspired the thing before too. The more we learn, the more there is to enjoy. Many thanks for taking us somewhere different and "new"!
If Vinny thinks the realistic portrait of a dude from 600 years ago is crazy, he should check out the Fayum mummy portraits. For the longest time, ancient Egyptians were depicted in "aspective view" which means only the important aspects were represented, so it's crazy to see an ancient Egyptian mummy from 2000 years ago as they would have looked alive.
I actually really enjoy the arnolfini portrait, I was introduced to it in art history in high school. The teacher wasn't a big fan of it but I like how weird it looks and the fact that you can see the painter in the mirror painting the couple, I love tiny details like that in paintings
Im an artschool prick who knows all this shit. actually, art history was one of my lowest grades cus my brain dont work too good on the memory side, I recognized some of this, and some of hoppers stuff kind of astounded me in how little I appreciated it, compared to now. Mauy bean, pleaase continue.
28:44 Steam locomotion lasted even longer in the UK, with standard gauge steam getting banned in August 1968. Also, echoing everyone else that I love these types of streams.
woah that picture with the train, i didnt expect this to be in here. I recently took a class on the history of photography and this image came up in the latter half of the term. camera technology advancements were so interesting to see over time
The van Eyck one is interesting. I never noticed just how much detail there was in the mirror, especially the Passion insets. Contrasts a lot with how simplistic Arnolfini's face is. And all this fit on a board less than 2x3 feet.
Incredible. This has enriched the knowledge, curiosity and appreciation for history & fine art for a lot of viewers across age groups. What a great way to do so but through a stream. Your variety has led to this. Good for you, Bünsen-berner.
This is such a cool segment idea! I really enjoyed it and hope there's more of it in the future, and it's a nice feeling to discover some works I've actually never seen before. I know Vinny mentioned that the original submitter attached sources - would love to get a link to those at some point if it's not too much of a pain! Makes it easier to do some extra reading on the pieces I particularly liked. :)
I’ve had a 8 x 12 copy of the Jan Van Eyck portrait in my bathroom for the longest time. Directly in front of the toilet. Always a great conversational piece
I genuinely love Vinny so much, because he'll act like the most demented, crazy, just batshit streamer with the most out of pocket quotes... But at the same time he's genuinely got such a love for art that I've never seen in a gaming twitch streamer before... Like this is such a wonderful idea and it's crazy how the mystery meat man is also just so grounded
Only one Francis Bacon? Would be cool to see more of this, Vinny always has seemed intrested in art in some way, it would be cool if he learnt about it.
Mannn I love art. It's so crazy to me how differently each of us humans expresses ourselves through it. How each painting or any form of art is so personal and full of sentiments. Like, we're all from the same species but so unique in our minds. Anyways, great segment.
2:14 They were named that because the ships were Ironclads that were previously used for military purposes. Knowing they were originally Battleships, the names "Terror" and "Erebus" make a lot more sense.
it takes a lot of skill to find this many examples of creepy or otherwise strange art other than saturn devouring his son or the works of zdzisław beksiński
I was hoping for more of that, just to see Vin's reaction to stuff like the Black Paintings. Also I can think of like 3 other famous "haunted paintings" I was really surprised weren't included
I've always loved classic art and always wanted some youtubers or streamers to give their takes on famous pieces or just enjoy them for awhile. I really hope Vinny continues this segment and it could even branch away from uneasy paintings to just any genre.
I've literally seen the Francis Bacon one in public, and seeing it acrually hung up in a museum is one of the most disturbing, yet beautiful paintings I've ever seen
Vinny, art theft is usually a commission job made by professionals, there are billionaires who commission thieves to steal paintings to have them for themselves, sometimes museum themselves arrange the theft as part of insurance scams.
28:27 O. Winston Link’s photography is absolutely amazing, and him capturing the last remnants of the Steam Giants that roamed the Norfolk & Western Railway is absolutely astonishing. His whole portfolio has amazing photos, I highly recommend taking a look. “The Popes and the last Steam Passenger Train” and “Main Line on Main Street” are two favorites. He also covered the N&W’s “Virginia Creeper” branchline and the rare M Class 4-8-0 Mastodon types which by the 50s were becoming ancient.
"Christina's World" is another popular one by Wyeth. It depicted a disabled woman he lived nearby who would prefer to crawl around the fields near her mostly deceased family's farm house she lived in.
24:59 I had a friend who used to live in the Jan van Eijckstreet somewhere in the Netherlands. We lived in the famous painter’s neighborhood, my dad still lives there
12:05 Nearly 10 years ago, the company I worked at did a collection of games based on art pieces for a gallery in Buffalo, NY. One of the games I was in charge of making was a Mario-esque side scrolling platformer based on Van Gogh's paintings. He made so much creepy unsettling stuff that we had no shortage of weird enemies to populate the game, including those very crows. Unfortunately, I don't believe the game is available on the app/android store anymore as we never updated it for newer phone OS versions. Might still be able to find the APK online to play in emulators, though.
@26:40 From the American Kennel Club's history section on the Brussels Griffon Dog: "Griffon-type dogs were well known in Europe for centuries. In Van Eyck's celebrated 1434 portrait of the 'Arnolfini Couple,' we glimpse a distant ancestor of the Griff. It's a small, griffon-type dog with a longer muzzle than today's flatter-faced, pouty-lipped version."
Vinny talking about memory being brought back by certain songs reminded me of a similarly intense experience I had recently when I went and rewatched Blood+ for the first time since 5th grade when it was actively airing on Adult Swim. I heard the intro and was immediately taken back to a night where I was sitting on the floor of my grandpa's "Man Cave" in front of the big plasma TV. I could smell the carpet, the old cigarette smell that's seeped into the walls of that room, it was really like I was there for a split second.
Truly another delightful segment I love when Vinny talks about educational topics, even If Twitch chat sometimes makes me want to put my face inside my palms in defeat. My God Montresor, we truly are eating good with this one, by the way, what are you doing with all of those bricks?
Would love to see you look at some Magritte paintings, and also the painter Zdzisław Beksiński Was so happy so see this segment, i hope to see it again!!
Love the video! Honestly I like the smiling pearl girl more. She looks more natural. It's like some people look weird smiling and she got this kind of vibe.
20:08 To be fair, rooms can 'breathe' to an extent, if there's a bit of temperature change between inside and outside, or if a gust of wind passes _by_ the window itself - it can venturi effect a little bit and drag some of the air in the room along with the wind, creating a draught (and then the reverse can happen when the wind subsides and cause air to re-enter the room again)

This is one of my favorite new segments in a while, so great job!
i like the bits of art history that you included with each of them; it did a lot to make the segment more captivating
Please make another one!!!! You did a great job, this was so interesting.

It's the kind of picture you leave in a room, but when you come back the girl isn't in the picture anymore and your window's now open.

Yes I view it as a virtual gallery and Vinny presenting these curated works. It's free for the public, so it's democratizing art further
Love when you do segments like this Vinny, honestly felt like a ten minute video

Exactly. We can shout “no more AI art” all we want, but if we don’t appreciate the art we have, why do we bother?

For somoeone who loves art, this si the best segment of the year!. Please more learning segments vinny!

Ivan Seal’s art is pretty wild

Should have a look through of Goya's black paintings

Tonight on Art history with Vinny Vinesauce....
new fav segment holy shit. discovered some new favorite artists as well!
2:14 They were named that because the ships were Ironclads that were previously used for military purposes.
Knowing they were originally Battleships, the names "Terror" and "Erebus" make a lot more sense.
There's a few religious art pieces that have ufo looking things in the skies with beams coming out I think
Still loving these atmospheric segments, they always seem to lead me down a new rabbit hole...
it takes a lot of skill to find this many examples of creepy or otherwise strange art other than saturn devouring his son or the works of zdzisław beksiński
That one painting of a dog stanced up and looking at a half open door leading to darkness scares me even now
I'd watch an entire segment of Beksinski's work.
I was hoping for more of that, just to see Vin's reaction to stuff like the Black Paintings. Also I can think of like 3 other famous "haunted paintings" I was really surprised weren't included
Really loved this one. Dog & Bridge is gonna be on my mind for the rest of my life. As a fellow horror artist, this was all really inspiring stuff.
I've always loved classic art and always wanted some youtubers or streamers to give their takes on famous pieces or just enjoy them for awhile. I really hope Vinny continues this segment and it could even branch away from uneasy paintings to just any genre.
I've literally seen the Francis Bacon one in public, and seeing it acrually hung up in a museum is one of the most disturbing, yet beautiful paintings I've ever seen
This is a really cool segment! I hope you do others like this one in the future
Vinny, art theft is usually a commission job made by professionals, there are billionaires who commission thieves to steal paintings to have them for themselves, sometimes museum themselves arrange the theft as part of insurance scams.
it makes sense since museums have way too much security to have no leads at all for decades...

His whole portfolio has amazing photos, I highly recommend taking a look. “The Popes and the last Steam Passenger Train” and “Main Line on Main Street” are two favorites.
He also covered the N&W’s “Virginia Creeper” branchline and the rare M Class 4-8-0 Mastodon types which by the 50s were becoming ancient.
I’ve called in sick from work today and binged some streams on the couch. Definitely had a good recovery day
"Christina's World" is another popular one by Wyeth. It depicted a disabled woman he lived nearby who would prefer to crawl around the fields near her mostly deceased family's farm house she lived in.
I'd love to see a similar segment where he looks at funny medieval art, this was great.
24:59 I had a friend who used to live in the Jan van Eijckstreet somewhere in the Netherlands. We lived in the famous painter’s neighborhood, my dad still lives there
I hope he does more of these segments I really really enjoyed this !!
12:05 Nearly 10 years ago, the company I worked at did a collection of games based on art pieces for a gallery in Buffalo, NY. One of the games I was in charge of making was a Mario-esque side scrolling platformer based on Van Gogh's paintings. He made so much creepy unsettling stuff that we had no shortage of weird enemies to populate the game, including those very crows. Unfortunately, I don't believe the game is available on the app/android store anymore as we never updated it for newer phone OS versions. Might still be able to find the APK online to play in emulators, though.
@26:40 From the American Kennel Club's history section on the Brussels Griffon Dog: "Griffon-type dogs were well known in Europe for centuries. In Van Eyck's celebrated 1434 portrait of the 'Arnolfini Couple,' we glimpse a distant ancestor of the Griff. It's a small, griffon-type dog with a longer muzzle than today's flatter-faced, pouty-lipped version."
loved this segment. looking forward to more!
i love these kind of streams, they are so unique and interesting. props to the "pack" creator and good stuff as always vinyo
YES WE NEED MORE STREAMS LIKE THIS!
this segment was awesome
Vinny talking about memory being brought back by certain songs reminded me of a similarly intense experience I had recently when I went and rewatched Blood+ for the first time since 5th grade when it was actively airing on Adult Swim. I heard the intro and was immediately taken back to a night where I was sitting on the floor of my grandpa's "Man Cave" in front of the big plasma TV. I could smell the carpet, the old cigarette smell that's seeped into the walls of that room, it was really like I was there for a split second.
Loved this segment I really hope he gets more packs like these
Loved this segment. The details on the painting with the couple were especially amazing.
omg yay i love art history!!! 💚
I always enjoy these type of segments and this was one of the really good ones.
Truly another delightful segment I love when Vinny talks about educational topics, even If Twitch chat sometimes makes me want to put my face inside my palms in defeat. My God Montresor, we truly are eating good with this one, by the way, what are you doing with all of those bricks?
I want more of this! Awesome segment!
This was great. I love these kinda segments.
Maybe creepy wikipedia rabbit holes would be another good idea for a segment.
I need more of this
Would love to see you look at some Magritte paintings, and also the painter Zdzisław Beksiński
Was so happy so see this segment, i hope to see it again!!
Love the video! Honestly I like the smiling pearl girl more. She looks more natural. It's like some people look weird smiling and she got this kind of vibe.
This is such a cool segment! Hopefully for a part 2, they can share some Zdzisław Beksiński's work maybe! Lots of gnarly work there too.
20:08 To be fair, rooms can 'breathe' to an extent, if there's a bit of temperature change between inside and outside, or if a gust of wind passes _by_ the window itself - it can venturi effect a little bit and drag some of the air in the room along with the wind, creating a draught (and then the reverse can happen when the wind subsides and cause air to re-enter the room again)
I love art and art history so this was awesome. Im totally there if you do more like this
