- Опубликовано: 21 ноя 2024
- Yousuf Karsh was an Armenian Canadian photographer known for his portraits of important and famous men and women of politics, Hollywood, and the arts. He took portraits of everyone from Albert Einstein and Sir Winston Churchill to Walt Disney and Grace Kelly.
Karsh was a patient photographer. He took his time in order to make his subjects comfortable, easing them out of their shells to capture their true personalities.
Colorized Pao Casals Video by: @aristideduplessis8151
I learned from this video that the real name of "Pablo Casals" is "Pau Casals", which was his Catalan name. The colorized video of him in this video was done by @aristideduplessis8151.
Actually, it's Pau Casals, "Pao" does not exist as a name in Catalan. Cheers from Barcelona ✌🏻
too bad thats all you learned..
Thank you so much for pointing this out. Such an important part of him, yet so often forgotten. Moltes gràcies, salut.
Shut up ya big know it all.
But thanks for the tips.
This name would suffer with a lot of jokes in Brazil.
How cool was Mr. Karsh?!
Photographing the person, instead of just their face
I'd feel cheated if I was the cellist. I hope he didn't pay to have an expression-less, dimly-lit picture of his back.
@@youtubehandlesareridiculous If he was as dedicated as we were led to believe by this video, I have little hesitation in assuming that he was most pleased by the photographer, his process, and the final result.
The work was the point, not his own face, is what I would guess his thinking might align with.
@@youtubehandlesareridiculous I don't think you understand what's going on here 😅
@@marigolden_mariposaneither do you ❤
@@youtubehandlesareridiculousthankfully you're not the cellist. Because the piece was definitely made with the cellist's intent and desires in mind.
Wait, one person took all those photos? Some of the most iconic photos of the 20th century? Dang. Much respect.
Looks like all great things was supposed to happen in 20th century. We no more hear greats like Rutgerfor or Neil's Bohr or Marie Curie..... man list enever ends..
@@AbdullahPunctureWale-BePgCxxwell, i would argue that you’re getting ahead of yourself, see the 21st century started just 2 decades ago, who knows what’s to come in the next 50-70 years? We still got playground.
@@user-rx5dh4le5x I know. self annihilation. 😄😄
Consider that awards don't get awarded until decades after the work has been completed. We won't know what is great in the 2000s until at least 2030 - 2070@@AbdullahPunctureWale-BePgCxx
That's just because you haven't really taken the time to educate yourself on current figures. There are so many physicists today and other scientists pushing the boundaries. It's more an information gap if anything@@AbdullahPunctureWale-BePgCxx
Karsh is an artist with a camera. His work not only expresses the subject of the picture, but also Karsh's talents.
Yeah, like a photographer
@@envy7522I don't think you understand. Karsh is the Pinnacle of Portrait photography as Ansel Adams is the Pinnacle of Landscape photography. They both made reality just look better on black and white film.
Yeah i often feel a little annoyed when i see photography displayed alongside of paintings and other types of art at museums because of the small amount of time and effort that a photographer put into their pieces compared to the up to hundreds of hours painters put into theirs, but i would not feel that way about Karsh’s
There are occasional photographers who’s work i see and i know that they understood what they were photographing and made it beautiful, those are the people who’s work i don’t have a problem with
@@Greenteabookso like a photographer that does portrait?
As a photographer, I have always struggled with portraiture. It's extremely hard, and I never got the hang of it. I have so much respect for anyone who does it well.
Same here, thats why seeing mr karsh art make me feel tingle like "how.. Just how". Not to mention its an old photo..
I just googled his work and holy shit he literally was behind every iconic picture of every important figure in the 20th century
Just looked him up and you're right. It's almost scary, someone should make a conspiracy out of this
@@chungus816 what’s the conspiracy? Man so good at his job that people who would benefit from his work sought him out?
Yes
@@maninblack3410no, “Karsh” is actually a name from the planet ZB-016. Karsh is an alien. Humans can’t take that great of pictures
@@maninblack3410 no he's obviously hired by the Cia to create fake images of people to confuse people
Normal photographers capture a moment in a persons life
Mr. Karsh captures a persons life in a photo
damn that's deep
@@nasgor22 Agreed.
quote for the ages there
Im a photographer soo it's time to take note😂
✍️✍️✍️
A solitary moment in a person's life and person's life in a solitary moment.
What's absolutely wild was that this man, before becoming world renowned for his photography, actually took the wedding photos for my great grandparents. He would write them a letter every year on their anniversary checking in to see how things were, and eventually gifted a book of his most famous photos to them that my grandma still has 💚
Shit that’s sick bro
🔥
Dude that picture must be amazing
damn
Send it on your channel, i gotta see this
That picture of the cellist is amazing. As a cellist myself it's nice to finally see anyone in a video acknowledge that we exist.
I bet it gets old playing second fiddle. Hehe get it? Second fiddle? Cause cellos are the second instrument of a string quartet after violins aka fiddles. 😏
I'll see myself out 🫡
Karsh's career was in Canada. While he was alive he photographed just about every important Canadian. A portrait by him was a sign you'd arrived in the top tier. He's still an iconic figure here.
E
When did he pass?
July 13, 2002 (93 years old) due to surgical complications
Thank you! I will look him up now to learn more about random famous Canadians 😮😂 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
For good reason! Man’s work is phenomenal.
i implore you to look at karsh’s work whenever you have free time. the portraits are all amazing and seemingly tell a story.
Where can i see his work?
Where
Bruh how did two separate people not realize you can just look up karsh portraits and see them all
@@nickbob2003 i know but i think there are like official website to see his work or something like that
@@satriyodaffa5691you don't need official websites to find a list of his work
His understanding of depth of field in photography is unmatched.
Uhhh, DOF was one of the first things you learn to master with large format. Literally everyone with actual skills had to know that. Amateurs using 35mm were scarcely of it as they used the Kodak exposure guide that came with every roll of film that told you to use f8 on down to f16 for daylight photography and flash. Only recently has the shallow DOF fad become a thing because of the revolution in digital cameras that got people using fast lenses in low light because they were frightened of flash. Now it is a cliche where it was once just one tool in the box.
You can really feel the intensity of those photos. Like the persons soul was captured in a moment
This truly shows why photography is an artform
Obviously it is
I love the story behind the churchill photo, apparently he plucked out churchills cigar, and that scowl was his response. Fun fact: iirc that photo was taken in the canadian parliament
"Fact" and "iirc" shouldn't be put in the same sentence.
That cool
That's it?
@@lapsijahtiexcuse me, what iirc stand for?
@@ArohiVasquez iirc means "if I remember correctly"
"To understand a person, it takes respect and time"
He literally yanked Churchill's cigar to get that photo 😅
He respected him, knew his limits and captured a great photo it sounds like
@@drunksunited😢rjjj😊
if he had yanked the cane, we wouldn't be talking about it
-
for the first time i perceive the literal visual shadow where the legendary cigar would be
Nah he knew Churchill is a fat fraud so he took a photo of that, a fat fraud
but you cant deny its a great photo
As an Armenian I am honored
"What expression do you want me to have for the photo?"
Karsh: "Just turn around and face the wall" 🗿
“damn I know I’m ugly but goddam”
- Pablo, probably
These days photos had a meaning
Karsh: "You blinked, gotta retake it."
Jokes and all but I find myself really interested in that photo. Strange to say but felt like I could really understand what that person did and it expressed them well.
Oh I love that photograph. He's not even facing anything, just a brick wall. It's telling the viewer this man is 100 percent immersed in his instrument. Pure dedication.
As a professional photographer this is a wonderful post and a reminder to study Karsh. Ive hit the mark a few times and i started back in "film". Btw he used a large format camera which makes technique even more important as you cant shoot several shots in a row.
Large format is like taking a photograph with a temperamental snake.
By any chance, do you know the name of the book shown in the short?

Look like normal photos to me, if i didn't know these were photos of wealthy famous people, i wouldn't care.
Every time I hear about another famous Armenian I’m like dude, there are only like 5 million Armenians in the world… mad respect, Mr. Karsch
nah fam there’s legit 16 million of us. pretty small compared to the amount of people on the planet
Nope just think about how many muricans, germans, brits, italian, frenchs, russians u have heard of. And compare it.
@@burak3433Just because you had a Eurocentric education doesn't mean it's the absolute truth. Great names have emerged in droves in the most diverse places throughout human history. Just look at the history of the Near and Far East, for example.
18 millions Armenians and 7 millions CryptoArmenians (Hidden Armenians) in the world. But on Russian Wikipedia the number of Crypto-Armenians is 27 millions.
@Gemutte you’re jealous 😂
the lighting in those portraits are fkng BEAUTIFUL
This is probably the best and most informative short I've ever watched. This was a good use of my time.
Now you can take amazing portraits too!
And this is why photography is art! Capturing that essence of a person without the liberties allowed by other media requires such talent and dedication.
This is why photography “can” be art
Karsh's work sounds like the perfect material to study for pose/composition i think. Holy shit he's cool
Knew what "goes hard" means in the 1940s
Photographers often have a way of making you see things differently. My dad's a photographer and while he's probably nowhere near Karsh's level, we still have a photo he secretly took of my mom while she was depressed and disheveled. To this day, out of the many photos I have of my mom, the one taken by my dad is the most stunning.
@JohnWick-lp6fisorry to the op, but I agree with you.
@JohnWick-lp6fion the contrary. Best photos are made when people don't know. It allows to capture a person as opposed to what person wants to show.
Its just not everyone is happy about themselves. Photo does not have anything to do with that.
Here’s the thing, if it was a random person? Sure, creepy as hell. But if it is a loved one? That is typically considered normal, and I doubt they would care that much especially considering the relationship.
@JohnWick-lp6fi I agree with the idea, but I think you are being very rude.
None of what I stated in my comment indicated that they were strangers. That was a conclusion you jumped to on your own.
And please keep in mind that you only know what I decide to share about my family, and therefore, you do not know them. Using such harsh judgement as calling my dad "fucking weird" is rude.
They were dating at the time, and he thought it'd cheer her up. They don't even live together anymore but she still keeps the photo because it's her favorite.
@@side2kI'm with you on that. I too believe that some of the best snaps are when people aren't aware. My example? My family, or specifically my dad. He does _not_ know how to smile lol, we've been teaching him for years. But it always ends up stiff, he's just really camera shy. But then I end up capturing one of the most relaxed, natural expressions and poses from him, and you know what they're from? Stolen shots.
I know if I called him and inform him I'm taking a picture he'd stiffen up trying to find a pose and do that smile like something is pulling his lips by force. Or even when he doesn't smile, like he'd strike a pose where he's serious, it still ends up really stiff.
But I had moments, for when he's in a serious face but also still natural looking at the same time.
And when I get a particularly good shot I show it to him, and he ends up loving it.
After all, for whatever snaps they shoot, it's the photographers responsibility. A good photographer would know when a picture they took would be a no-no post. A bad photographer is what the other person probably meant, one who has a sadistic want and capability of leaking photos for the purpose of humiliation.
When I take a stolen pic of my family, and I happened to capture stuff I know they won't like, I either delete it or do a thing where I just don't show it to anyone and hide it, because who knows...one day someone in the family finds it and looking back at the pictures, well...

Portraits of Greatness!
Karsh was “one of the greatest portrait photographers of the twentieth century [who] achieved a distinct style in his theatrical lighting” ❤
Though I've never seen the Oppenheimer photo before, AS SOON as I saw the photo I knew this short was about Karsh. His style is incomparable
I hadn’t seen the Oppenheimer portrait before and I also knew it was Karsh. Growing up in Ottawa, I was aware of him and his work long before the Web and Internet exploded.
In Karsh’s photograph, Oppenheimer really looks like Dr. Sheldon Cooper as an old man. 😂
That picture of pablo took me a minute to really appreciate. He's sitting in a empty with no else practicing. No one really see these moments, only the results of his work❤
What makes photo great is because it can tell moment or describe person more than any words to everyone
I think it’s fantastic that you’ve highlighted the work and talent of this artist. Karsh has been an inspiration for my photography for years now.
Okay, I love that mentality of capturing an image that best represents what is foundational to a person's greatness rather than just aiming for aesthetic beauty of a formulaic shot. It is a picture that tells a story of their life, and that's something special.
Glad to know me and my Armenian brothers have someone of our ethnicity we look up to
I want to replace the most popular Armenians (kardashians) with System of a Down they are much better
This is legit the only armenian i have ever heard of that didnt have "yan/ian" at the end of their last name
@@johannj my last name is Yessaian lol
@@johannjMany had to change their last names due to facing discrimination. Had to fit in
The Armenian version of his first name seems to be Hovsep(quite common in Armenia, Joseph is the English version). Last name seems to be unchanged for at least one generation, as his father had the same last name. Could’ve been changed earlier, during the Abdul Hamid era.
I didn't realize portraiture could be so stunning
Im amazed by the sharpness of his photos
This photographer's photos look so crisp and almost like they are drawn! You can see and feel the soul in them.
That's because he stole those people's soul! Have you never heard of them evil technologies!?

Damn. I love this so much. Those pictures say so much about those people, somehow.
Karsh is SO much better at revealing the greatness inside people than modern "snappers".
His photographs are truly unique -- in the true meaning of that word!
So many people have cameras but so few can create these moments. Bravo 👏
Exactly.
Every has a pen and paper
Few people can even actually draw
This is what shorts should be like. Thank you for educating me.
A true master. Just as great at his craft as any of his subjects.
as an Armenian I didn’t think I would come across this video at 3 am 😅 I remember seeing these photographs in Armenian online communities when I was a teenager, they’re really impressive 😮
I’m also an armenian, and I was kinda surprised when I heard he’s armenian, I was just mindlessly scrolling lol
Half Armenian on my mom side too, and i had to look him up, and he was deported to aleppo around the same time two of my great-grandparents were, kinda weird to think about (and then when they were suppose to go to the US, the French custom officers suspected that my great-grandmother had tuberculosis (she was throwing up blood) while in fact she was just very pregnant with twins, so they just stayed in france
@@MikhailMyersSame lol
I wonder if his last name is actually Քաշիշյան
@@Elite_TeachNope just Եուսուֆ Քարշ. No need to try to standardize his name.
I think I understand how his photos are so powerful. When I look at one, I feel either like I’m walking into the room and noticing the subject for the first time, or that I’m in the middle of a conversation as a friend. There’s just something so intimate and profound about how he captures the subject.
Bingo. The technique he used, the lighting creates a sense of presence. Add to that the fact that he spent time observing his subject , and BOOM
Now that's an artist who paints with his eyes.
as an ophthalmologist, I do not encourage this hobby.
This is the only art I have genuinely been in awe of. Pablo managed to distill the essence of a person into a flawless photo, capturing them beyond any description. The true meaning of a picture equaling a thousand words.
I can say Without actually knowing about him that he was one of the greatest photographers ever been on earth ❤
That Castro picture is so impactful. So much emotion behind his eyes
Yeah, you can even feel the people he executed through his eyes
He spent 6 hours with him smoking cigars, he was trying to kill him with lung cancer
@@GiantBoah lmao
The hunger in those eyes is insatiable. Perfectly on-brand for a Communist
@@ProductBasement as if capitalism doesn’t produce an insatiable hunger as well 😅
One of my photography professors was the personal master printer for all the photos for Herman Leonard, a photographer who got into photography working for Karsh and was on set for most of the photos shown in this video. Loved hearing stories of his time working with Karsh when I met Leonard. You can definitely see the impact working with Karsh reflected in Leonard's portraits of musicians.
If I was photographed by this legend, you would just see me tired with the world
The portrait of cellist Pablo Casals with his back in front of the view of camera is very impactful to me. Also, these are the kinds of portraits that I was painstakingly try to find in google search whenever I make PPT. Sometimes, it takes so much time for me to search this particular type of photo!
Thats amazing...this man helped capture multiple parts of history and we all had no idea were appreciating his art along the way.
Thank you for specifying that he was Armenian. Every day I discover something about our people which makes me proud to be born an Armenian

It's refreshing to see people recognizing not only the value of art, but also the value of artists. Especially during the rise of AI plagiarism.
I agree with the first part, but AI isn't inherently plagiarism, that's not how plagiarism works.
it’s not plagiarism but it’s still just lazy
@@IgorNVAI can only learn from art that exists. Therefore it uses the work of someone else to create art. The AI itself almost never has the permission of the original artists to use their pictures as the source of knowledge. The AI isn't making "inspired" or "transformative" works. It can only make derivative works. It's a loose application of plagiarism, but it's still true to a small degree.
@@albinofroggy Wait till you find out that all art works this way at a technical level. There hasn't been anything original made in centuries, and if you consider studying from life as copying, then nothing original has ever been made.
Of course, AI lacks context, and what's really creative is combining things and giving them a context that they wouldn't have separately. AI isn't great at that, apart from the technical aspect where it just mashes elements together without a coherent thesis.
I'm a traditional painter and I use the gaming GPU I never ended up using much + Stable Diffusion to generate moodboards. I use the moodboards as a secondary or tertiary reference to pin to my easel. It's pretty useless beyond that.
People who use it at the middle and end stage of their art process are delusional, I'm more worried about them than the advancement of AI

His photos are truly pieces of art ❤
One of my complaints about photography is that it can often capture the photographer rather than the subject (it’s hard to explain, but something about the composition and how carefully selected and posed photos can be can seem to show not the truth of the object but only the narrow story the photographer has in mind, which certainly has a place, but this might not be appropriate for portraiture, and I’ve seen too many portraits look like the subject has been used like a model rather than letting them speak for themselves) whereas these seem to have really taken a part of the spirit of the person. Fascinating stuff.
To me it is just the feeling that it's not that, but it is.
Why is it a problem that the picture shows the photographer and not the person ?
@@TheLily97232 I mean, if you have a portrait taken of a famous person (or even your grandma), you’re interested in capturing THEIR likeness, not that of the person behind the camera.

That is amazing. You can tell the difference right away. Amazing
Yet another GREAT Armenian🇦🇲❤
With limited technology, but he understand it deeply... Such master in his craft
Part of me feels like his survival during the Armenian Genocide had some role to play in shaping his passion for capturing the whole person.
Edit: To explain my perspective, Armenian properties were liquidated after the genocide to help sustain the Turkish state. Many Armenian family photographs and other visual artifacts were lost as a result, which produced a deep commitment to archival work across the Armenian diaspora. Countless photographs of unidentified Armenians and Armenian families exist, with no one left to name the pictured subjects. It makes sense that an Armenian Genocide survivor might develop a passion for representing his subjects, fully and authentically, for even strangers to embrace and know.

Cool! When I was a small bored Canadian kid, my parents let me run around The Chateau Laurier while they were there at a conference. I ended up in front of Karsh's art deco Studio entrance. That was when I discovered who he was.
A photo that explains a person without words
We need oldschool photographers back, you can literally feel the person through the picture
Wow, angles and views you wouldn't even consider. What an incredibly skilled photographer and human.
Epic, I never thought this way about portrait photography
Respect, really capturing the person as a whole instead of a portrait like everyone else 🙏🏼
Mr. Karsh lived and worked in Canada for many years. We got to see many examples of his amazing photographic portraits. A real privilege.

He is an artistic genius.

IMO, Karsh and Adams are the two best photographers ever and a lot of the emotion evoked in the pictures comes from understanding light and shadow in Black & White photography.
Mr. Kaesh sounds like a genius at his job.
His photographs are works of art
When I read that, I thought I read that as 'Kayshe.'
Karsh was a citizen of Canada throughout his career, having immigrated there at the age of 16 where he learned his trade apprenticed to an uncle already living in Canada.
wow. that is so cool! it really makes you realize what for an art form photography is
What a quote. "To truely understand someone takes respect and time"
Although born in Armenia, Mr Karsh spent his life as a Canadian. I visited his exhibit in Ottawa in 1992 before it closed. His life and work have made Canada very proud.
Much love to Armenians 🇦🇲 Guys and gals, you were and are true legends for millennias! Keep strong!
man- i wish he was around today to see what he could do with a colored professional camera
You can see his work in Karsh's once student, Paul Couvrette, also of Ottawa. Paul Couvrette is one of the last portrait photographers who has photographed all of the royals, all of the politicians, all of the celebrities and notables.

Difference is a staged photograph, versus a photograph which shows a snapshot of the subject, in action, doing their thing. There's a place for both.
Imagine if all the photos were staged. Wonderful photos, but its the quick snapshots that I really enjoy. Action shots in war, sports, motor racing, rock bands...
These staged photgraphs might bring out the "greatness" of the subject, but I want to see that person doing the thing that makes them "great" too.
I’ve always sort of questioned photography as a form of art. Point camera, click, art. Hell I’ve been out walking and taken photography level images just by stopping for 10 minutes or so. But this man makes photography into true art
What the hell is a "photography level image"? 😂
maybe amateur level images but i really doubt you took “photography level images” if by that you mean something that looks like it’s from a professional photographer just by stopping for 10 minutes
@@Thryllos”professional” doesn’t equate to talent in any field, particularly in the arts. “Professional” means the person’s main income is from that field. In the case of photography I know too many talented “amateur” photographers who have photography as a hobby just to get away from their day job.
@@colinstock325 ok then i misused the word professional, maybe a better word would be proficient.
Yeah, I definitely doubt you took "photography level images". Do you know anything about composition, lighting, color theory?
