    Absolutely magisterial exposition of the works.
    Please bring back the Cocktail series, and with it a sense of freedom and humour that these puritanical, self-flagellatory times seem to forbid.

    Thank you! 400+ years later the painting has such vivid colors, it looks so very clean and in great condition. Always an immense pleasure to see these episodes.

    I have been drawn to these paintings at the Frick so many time, primarily because of the beautiful, jewel-like color. I never really understood them though, and now, I simply cannot wait to see them again. Such an interesting, insightful analysis. Thank you!

    Thank you again for a most interesting and informative talk. Without the explanations the allegorical meanings would have been lost on me. I look forward to these sessions every Friday.
    I have never been to NY let alone the Frick, but following these Frick series and when world circumstances change I, will rectify that! Cheers from uk.

    The riches of the Frick's collection, interpreted by an expert who wears learning lightly...I can't imagine a better way to end the week. And these two Veroneses always draw me back. There's a reason some of the greatest collectors in European history coveted them!

    Now out for more ingredients, for my Negroni. Love Veronese. Didn't know white was also worn in mourning. So interesting, and also linking to a tribute portrait posthumously. Lovely depth added to levels of allegory. So grateful for these talks.

    Thank you again for this wonderful presentation. I admit to looking forward to it all week. Your in-depth knowledge has shown me a new way to look at these paintings. Learning how to 'unpack' them has been a great experience. Thank you for sharing your joy of art with us.

    Is there anything more aesthetically pleasing than the opulent color pallet of the Venetian painters? It's in full display in this marvelous piece. Thanks of sharing your knowledge with us. I can't wait until next week!

    Loved how the curator played Sherlock Holmes with this one. Seems very reasonable that it would have been commissioned as a memorial to a young deceased relative of a family.
