      Dark Goya (Full length): The later Works 2103pm 13.1.23 i doubt the images are seriously horrendous... works without a hint of goya? probably painted by that other wild man blake, then... who had claimed to have invented such a printing process.

    you know the video is good when it's largely stuff you've already seen, but you are still enraptured by it. Goya was a magnificent artist, and you are magnificent for providing a gateway to his work for a wide audience. Wonderful work!

    This channel single handedly got me interested in art. Your breakdowns help me understand just how amazing these works of art really are.

    This is great! I was in Madrid recently and saw the Black Paintings and Goya's other works at the Prado Museum. Seeing these works in real life affected me unexpectedly as I never realized just how rare it is to see paintings with dark themes and palettes. I was also surprised at how big or small some of the pieces were and just going into the room where the works were kept was lit with low and moody lighting. Before my trip to Spain, I had little idea of how much of my art knowledge was surrounded by Spanish Art (Goya, El Greco, Picasso, etc). I realized that now that I am older, I can empathize with these works with complex themes even more so now than when I first saw them on a printed art book. Thank you for this video, James. Just know that your hard work is greatly appreciated.

    I gotta say, man, you've exposed me to a new way to appreciate art. I always had a hard time "getting" art that seemed both obscure surrealism or hyper realistic. But because of how you explain these artworks, I can see that there's almost always something there that actually means something and isn't superficial.

    I've been aware of Goya my whole adult life. I was never that enraptured with him. Now I see him in a whole new light and just how my modern life preferences blinded me to this "The last of the old masters and first of the moderns" artist for the ages. I didn't want this video to end. It added a new chapter to my appreciation for art and I'm grateful.

    Your videos are extremely useful to anyone who enjoys and wants to learn about this visual art. I've discorvered the works of Francisco Goya because of your two other videos about him.
    And I was mesmerized by his work: : "Los Caprichos", "The Third of May 1808", "The Disasters of War", and "The Black Paintings". I don't know much about art, other than the things we learn in school: "Da Vinci is the the greatest painter eho has ever lived - just look at the Mona Lisa"; "Michelangelo was the artist who painted the Sistine Chapel ceiling".
    And because of your videos, I've learnt about artists such as: Edward Hopper, Francisco Goya, Basquiat, Hieronymus Bosch, Botticelli, Caravaggio.
    And in this craving to learn more about art I'm currently reading "The Story of Art" by E. H. Gombrich. Thank you very much for your content, which provides, in a really appealing way, the necessary knowlegde to understand and to be curious about art.

  • @RoggieBella

    What we get from Goya is that the more things change, the more they stay the same. 200 years later and humanity still hasn't evolved. Shame on us.

    • @ElderMillennial84
      @ElderMillennial84 5 месяцев назад +1

      I agree…
      This is what we get for restricting ourselves to a construct of what is “normal” and what is not. We still look toward leaders in times of uncertainty. Even the least intelligent humans on the planet are still one of the most adaptive creatures in earth. Yet we still make the same decisions as the Neanderthals made with their underdeveloped prefrontal cortex…

    • @Tehrawrzorz
      @Tehrawrzorz 4 месяца назад +12

      It's easy to think this way. But we (generally) aren't dying of treatable conditions. We (sorta) have a say in our governments. We have achieved a lot in the past 200 years. Normal people like you and I wouldn't have the money to see his works, much less watch a full length documentary containing many of his works. Life isn't perfect, but people like Goya show us things we should be thankful for.

    This is a fantastic conclusion to the Goya deep dive. You have me convinced there was no insanity - it just looked like it because the rest of the world was so insane and he was clear sighted.
    It was interesting to note that in the Third of May 1808 painting the colors of the focal character and the lamp mirrored each other. Another way he subverted the martyr image.

  • @marzpop754

    I had to slow the playback speed to 0.75 to fully appreciate the descriptions and works, but I have to say, done with the integrity it deserves. I find myself loving and appreciating Goya's final master works more and more. I so wish he would've have given these works fearless titles. We are indeed lucky they survived. Thank you for this wonderful presentation. Bravo!!

    Francisco de Goya is the person that made me relized art can be brutal, horror and does not need to demonstrate a sense a beauty. Los caprichos evokes all these emotions that most contemporaries did not dare depict.

    I live in a city with a contemporary art museum, the Albright-Knox, and was lucky enough to grow up during a time when field trips for public schools were still funded to see art, hear the local philharmonic orchestra and see plays. But I have never received as thorough an education in art as I have received from viewing this channel. I saw a lot of abstract expressionism and pop art but never believed I had a foot in the door to understanding it. I heard "It means whatever it means to you." alot. Not very helpful as a ten year old looking at Warhol's Campbell's Soup Cans. I mean, come on. Your videos have have been exactly what I needed. Thank you so much.

    @watching7721 Год назад +18

    It always felt like The Black Paintings were one last sputtering remark of a dying old man. His pessimism surprises anyone who comes in contact, expecting a sweet, dumbed man. Instead, he expresses his dissatisfaction of the world and how his life was a first seat view on how it came to be that way. His wit and insight are made ragged by the exasperation of his age. Yet one walks out of a conversation again feeling like they've seen some hidden side of the world only seen by the glimmer of elderly wisdom and the words that spring from within it

    Thanks for all the hard work that goes into compiling these wonderful films. Honestly, I didn’t really know anything about art save a few famous paintings that everyone’s heard of. Surprisingly, this medium is delightful and you’ve really helped me to appreciate it in a real way.

    Thank you for another brilliant video. Beautifully worded and well-edited as always.
    Goya’s works are so visceral. The blood and anguish practically drip off of them. I’m amazed at how he was able to create such depth and specificity of emotion with so few strokes in his later paintings. I agree, it truly takes a master to do that.

    Wow, what can I say. Thank you, thank you. This was a masterful, insightful, presentation/interpretation of Goya's final years in art.
