    We tend not to appreciate things until we lose them. Then if by some miracle we get them back our appreciation goes through the roof. After seeing this video I now see the Mona Lisa in a whole new light. The Light of Appreciation.

    Nate, I use your Art of the Selfie video with my 4th grade students for a Digital Self-Portrait project. And I just put a link for your Salvadore Dali on a presentation for my 5th graders. I'm disappointed I can't share this one! The nude sculpture, and the alcohol and weapons stuff wouldn't fly with our parents. Oh well - 2 out of 3 isn't bad, lol! I learned a bunch though, thank you

I'm currently in Cyprus, but once I get back home I can edit out a kids version and upload it! I do have an episode I filmed at the Louvre with the REAL Mona Lisa, which is definitely student friendly!

    If they made a movie they could "embellish" it by saying that Perugia received an offer from an underworld buyer but when it came time to close the deal Perugia cried his eyes out and found that he had come to love painting so much he could not part with it. He then decided he would keep it!!! Lol!!!!

    But why is it not in an Italian gallery?

    • @artrageousnate
      @artrageousnate  5 лет назад +3

      That is exactly what Perugia said! One of the main reasons why he and his brothers targeted the Mona Lisa was that he felt it should be returned to Italy. The reality is when DaVinci was older the king of France hired him to design ideas like war machines. So, DaVinci moved to France in a small castle (I've been there, and it's awesome!) where he also continued working on the Mona Lisa.
      After the French revolution it was moved to the Louvre. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching, subscribing, and the feedback!

    Monalisa paintings has nothing extra ordinary or magical laugh shroud with mystery. It's just a propaganda tactic to catch more tourists around the world and earn huge. It's simply an ordinary paintings comparable to most others paintings on display.

    • @artrageousnate
      @artrageousnate  2 года назад

      Indeed, which is pretty much what I'm alluding to in the episode. However, it was painted by a famous painter none-the-less, which helped the accession to world popularity for sure.
      I feel like there are many works of art and artists that were essentially creating "ordinary" paintings that somehow found their way to fame through all sorts of strange ways. For example, Van Gogh's work was considered pretty terrible while he was alive. It took his sister-in-law to see the value and prove to the world that Van Gogh's work was worth appreciating.
      Anyway, super appreciate the feedback, and I LOVE discussions like this!

Perugia a rubarla al museo di Parigi , per lui era riprendere il quadro del genio italiano Leonardo da Vinci ..preso ingiustamente da Napoleone che non è non vero ...fake news ..

    • @artrageousnate
      @artrageousnate  8 месяцев назад

      Appreciate the feedback! Yes, you are right. Napoleon never stole the Mona Lisa, and I never mentioned that he did. Of course, Napoleon did steal a TON of other works, which I do have an episode on one of them you should check out! I think most people forget that Da Vinci lived in France sponsored by the French government for the better part of his older years. I was just at his home a couple years ago.
      I think Perugia was just frustrated about other works that the Louvre had, which were either of Italian origin or stolen. For him, it seemed like more of a stunt for attention than anything else.
      Either way, the theft most definitely skyrocketed the Mona Lisa into fame, which I think is funny as an art history buff. Just think how many people and ideas are now only famous simply because enough people on Instagram, RUclips, etc says they are. Food for thought!

      @artrageousnate  4 года назад +3

      Pamela Longley hi Pamela! Glad to know you enjoy them! Honestly, out of nearly 100 episodes, I can’t even think of more than one that might have nudity, and to clarify, the nudity is often abstract (Warhol sketch,) and is a painting or sculpture.
      When I was a classroom teacher, before we studied renaissance art I would send home a letter to all parents basically explaining the difference between pornography and art. It’s nearly impossible to avoid all of it especially during the renaissance period!
      I do, however, often take out nudity. For example, many of Frida Kahlo‘s paintings include nudity, and I feature any time I showed a paining I did so without showing anything.
      Either way, thanks for being an art educator!
