Tragic that these artists died poor and alone never knowing the influence they had on future generations. It almost feels like we in the future are stealing from them. We can't pay them directly or even say thanks. I would love to say _Thanks. your work helped me through hard times. a little piece of my life I owe to you._ It would have made their hearts a less sad I'm sure.
Probably, but realize also how an act done in our insignificant lives really can affect people well outside our own lifetimes even if almost nobody seems to care about it in our own lives. That's also a pretty powerful lesson that can be taken from this.
I don`t even see most of these paintings as ``sad`` Above all else I sense a sort of sobriety and quiet excitement. It`s like being a very small kid and smelling winter air for the first time.
Nebojsa Galic I totally agree . I read an analysis of ‘ the wanderer above a sea of fog’ and this painting was described as a man on a brink or a person at the end of life. What I think is that it reflects a man ( his body and soul) surpassing all the difficulties of life and achieving atonement. I find it very inspirational and for me it is as if a person who conquered all the fears and failures.
Caspar David Friedrich is one of my favorite painters - a poster copy of "Wanderer" hangs in my living room - and the narrator is lovely beyond words. Wonderful video.
I like that she records her videos in the settings that summarize the works of the artists she discusses. For instance, her background in this video captures the theme of some of Friedrich's works. Now that I realize this, I have to watch her other videos again to see it.
+Mark Wolf After watching this video I thought the same thing, no offense to the other RUclips greats that teaches and educate but this channel reveals so many great teachings of life.
my life is too trivial for her to narrate it. although it might result in a comical effect: " There he stood, watching the cars on the street pass by like opportunities in his life, to cross the street, when in reality he was crossing the styx to enter the hades that is this office building." =)
Some beautiful paintings, thanks! Also well put : "as if what is most important about us only comes to the surface when we are away from the chatter of civilisation"
I did an arts course some years when I found Casper David. My god what an artist. I prefer landscapes like Turner's but Friedrich is just wow. I see so much in all his paintings but something different every time. Dull he was not. He was giving us his world and in those paintings some might consider depressing I see something mystical. He is my favourite artist
I've fell in love with his painting 'the wanderer'. A man standing on a peak of the mountain looking down towards misty world somehow gives me the feeling of a man's strong decisive manner against the misterious world. Sad that he wasn't appreciated by the crowd during his lifetime.
Yes! Thank you for covering Caspar David Friedrich, my favorite painter! And for giving a glimpse of my favorite painting, The Wanderer Above the Sea of Mist (3:18). Friedrich's somber awe at the sublime power of nature is what makes him great, and captures much of what it feels like to feel those moments in real life. His art gives me chills every time I view it. As I mentioned on another School of Life video, another similar and wonderful artist was German-American painter Albert Bierstadt. His paintings of natural scenes are likewise sublime, but more exalting and less contemplative.
Her voice is very calming to listen to! A very interesting video too - I wasn't too familiar with Friedrich's work beforehand, but I like his compositions; they somehow strike a balance between being understated and overwhelming.
That voice! And yes, love the art of CDF, he was very evocative of that that early 19th century pan german romanticism. Too bad he died forgotten and poor, but he seemed to be suffering from depression all during his adult life.
This is wonderful content, School of Life. It's so good that I'm compelled to up my own game and make better videos. That's everything I want from fellow creators and educators, so thanks. Also, let's collaborate sometime.
That was it. I've finished all the videos on art by Dr. Roxburgh. I would like more please. In the intervening time, since videos take a while to produce, I think it necessary that Dr. Roxburgh start a podcast on art.
I remember Alain's Philosophy: A Guide to Happiness on the BBC. Great to see he's re-emerged on RUclips, along with the charming lady. I expect some great content and playlists to develop in the coming months/ years.
Thanks for covering one of my favorite painters of all time! I look at the "Wanderer among sea of fog" everyday and empathize with the melancholy of the wanderer. I think human nature is prone to feel subdued when faced with the grandeur of this world. But, at the same time, it urges us to move on and to venture out to the mysterious world. I am a hopeless Romanist who aspires to become my own Ubermensch while feeling the burden and sorrow that comes with that desire. I am so happy that I am not the only one feeling the melancholy and loneliness by knowing that there are others who appreciate Friendrich's masterpieces~!
I feel really connected to what you just wrote, even tho I just discovered the artist (who I will investigate a lot on I reckon). Nice to see someone who also loves Nietzsche ! I also recently discovered this yt channel and I really appreciate it, keep the great work!
It's funny. I also made connections between Caspar's works and existentialist philosophy such as the literature of Nietzsche. Something about the subject standing in front of a vast wilderness really captures that sense of bewilderment and awe associated with contemplating our place in the universe. My favorite painting by Caspar is probably 'The Chasseur In The Forest'.
When I was in high school I was really intrigued when my teacher first told me about Friedrich. Thank you for reminding me of his great works :) I would like to pass this video on to my little sister and I hope she'll enjoy other great videos on this channel like I do :)
These videos are so enlightening. I'm so glad I've discovered them! Nothing more enticing than a beautiful girl talking about deep and powerful things.
I really love Freidrich, maybe my absolut fovorite painter. When I was in London I was so exited to see one of his works in real life at the national gallery, but during my visit the whole romaticism part of the gallery was closed off... fuck me
Broadly speaking, I love the 'School of Life' podcasts. However, this video is strongly dominated by the 'School of life' ideology (in this case using art as a therapeutic tool to alleviate human suffering). As a German and great admirer of Caspar David Friedrich, I do have to draw attention to the fact that Friedrich was also, and perhaps most importantly a painter with an important political message. Purely seeing his art as a tool to come to terms with sadness takes his works out of their wider context. (The question of German unity throughout the 19th century and of course revolution)
The political, nationalist, aspect to Friedrich's work is real and did have consequences. I suspect though that this was not his real intention. I think his work was essentially usurped for these unintended motives. A valid thing to do but it is interesting that paintings can be viewed and interpreted in totally different ways. Perhaps that a work can have multiple interpretations might be a hallmark of great art.
Can't agree more - I enjoy the School of Life's content, but wow they do have a very obvious bias and ideology that continually pervades their videos. To say that Friedrich's work is about maintaining the beauty and purpose and emotions of religion, but without the actual religious themes/drawings is so typical of School of Life that it becomes mundane and predictive from their videos.
@@kevingregory-evans2904 It probably was his intention, depending on the painting I suppose. He seems to have been sincerely patriotic and deliberately painted consciously German folklore in opposition to the French occupation during the Napoleonic wars. Definitely intentional, I would say.
I don't know your name my lady but you are mesmerisingly beautiful, you will make some fine young man very happy indeed with just your voice. Perfect for illustrating Caspar David Friedrich. I never say things like this, but it needed to be said.
"He remains a painter uniquely suited to those who no longer believe but remain attracted to the serious emotions that accompany belief" when a youtube video knew more about me than myself lol
The strange thing for me is having those "serious emotions" even for religions I was never part of. I have them when I tour a great cathedral, of course, but also a synagogue or Buddhist or Shinto temple. But I also get that feeling when I look into a telescope at the night sky or hike in the mountains.
I am very glad you decided to cover this artist. I was just looking to figure out who painted one of his works. You already did all the research for me! Great video about a great artist! Thank you Dr. Roxburgh for doing the art and architecture series for The School of Life. The art series is probably my favorite, along with philosophy! I do have one minor suggestion, though. I find myself turning off annotations because the subscribe button is in the frame the whole time. Could you just have that up during the beginning and end of the video, perhaps? I just think your videos would look better that way. Again, love all of your work!
***** RUclips is very strange and inconsistent lately, especially with differences between platforms, but I use the bottom right to turn annotations off. Perhaps I am unaware of another way. Again, this is minor because annotations can be turned off, but then all links at the end of the video are gone as well, until it is turned back on. I know that annotations are difficult to deal with, so I don't know if a minor user-end thing would cause big issues from the uploading side--certainly don't worry about it too much if it becomes a pain. Thanks for the feedback!
Oh my god, I can never get around how much I love SOL. Just brilliant! And wow, I love the host's outfit! It pleasantly reminds me of my grandmother, very chic, if that is the right word :)
In youre description I missed a rather important information - in fact - his younger brother drowned in the icy water on an atempt to help Caspar rescue out of the ice - a for sure traumatic experiance, spreading deepest sadness and darkness - depression? - often to be seen in CDFs motivs.
School of Life use the image of the Wanderer Above a Sea of Mist almost as much as they use the elderly couple enjoying a glass of wine. Not that there's anything wrong with that, it's evocatively iconic (or iconically evocative...)
I very much like how the camera placement relative to the narrator, and the narrator's background changes in this video. It makes scenes with the narrator less static and add visual interest.
I've always wondered if there are any insights we can get from artists of today, especially in a time where anyone can call themselves artists and produce technically beautiful works of art, but often lack substance or soul behind them. Would another Dr. Hannah talk about Banksy 500 years into the future, or would selfies be our most influential work of art in this century?
I expected a more knowledgeable, mature, and topic interested, comment section here. This is a high level informative video about an underappreciated German painter from antiquity. Yet a depressing percentage of the comments are akin to: girl=hot. That may be true, but she's obviously well educated and a patron making a much needed informative video on an under represented topic. It's very disappointing that her efforts, passion, and the dedication that went into making this video are just brushed aside by "she hot". It took me alot of effort to get to a degree in my area of STEM and an even larger amount of effort outside of school and work to become competent and knowledgable. I'd feel pretty dejected if I tried to share some insights and hard won knowledge and that was just dismissed in lieu of ' he has a strong jawline'. Amazing.
***** Besides here, does she lecture at a university or in some other public capacity? I would be interested to read any of her publications or hear other lectures. She has a really good way of communicating about art.
zakk davis She is like a painting herself though:-) There is an American Indian fairy tale which tells us the story of a day where God was really bored. So he began to search inside his bag, to see if he had anything interesting in it. Then he took all the colors he could find out of it and created a butterfly. He gave it a very beautiful voice too, just to have some fun watching him flying around and singing. But the birds felt so jealous that they said " butterfly has it all, you must at least take away the voice". So according to the legend, that's the reason why butterflies can't sing.But Hannah has both such a lovely voice and the beauty. ( And the intelligence of course.)
Horrormane Hi there Horrormane! I am glad you liked it. I have the book here in Turkish unfortunately. But I think the original title is "American Indian Myths and Legends", by two writers: Richard Erdoes and Alfonso Ortiz. I hope you can find it somewhere. Best wishes!

No artwork compares to her and her lovely voice
I don`t even see most of these paintings as ``sad``
Above all else I sense a sort of sobriety and quiet excitement.
It`s like being a very small kid and smelling winter air for the first time.
Nebojsa Galic I totally agree . I read an analysis of ‘ the wanderer above a sea of fog’ and this painting was described as a man on a brink or a person at the end of life. What I think is that it reflects a man ( his body and soul) surpassing all the difficulties of life and achieving atonement. I find it very inspirational and for me it is as if a person who conquered all the fears and failures.
I appreciate the way beautiful classics are brought to us in a so cheerful way.

These paintings are always in my head whenever I’m hiking.
I now award The School of Life the "Best RUclips Channel in The History of All Tubes Award" as presented by one humble viewer. Like this if you agree.
***** when/ where are the architecture videos happening? Love your videos and the anticipation is killing me slowly haha
+Mark Wolf
After watching this video I thought the same thing, no offense to the other RUclips greats that teaches and educate but this channel reveals so many great teachings of life.
i want her to narrate my life
my life is too trivial for her to narrate it. although it might result in a comical effect: " There he stood, watching the cars on the street pass by like opportunities in his life, to cross the street, when in reality he was crossing the styx to enter the hades that is this office building." =)
This woman is soo special.. I like her soo much...she talks about art ... true...but she is art.
What a serene voice! Perfect narrator for the likes of Caspar David Friedrich's works
Some beautiful paintings, thanks!
Also well put : "as if what is most important about us only comes to the surface when we are away from the chatter of civilisation"
I did an arts course some years when I found Casper David. My god what an artist. I prefer landscapes like Turner's but Friedrich is just wow. I see so much in all his paintings but something different every time. Dull he was not. He was giving us his world and in those paintings some might consider depressing I see something mystical. He is my favourite artist
It's the lady with the calm voice again! I love listening to her...
I wasn't expecting a 6 minute video to be so good. Thank you
I've fell in love with his painting 'the wanderer'. A man standing on a peak of the mountain looking down towards misty world somehow gives me the feeling of a man's strong decisive manner against the misterious world. Sad that he wasn't appreciated by the crowd during his lifetime.
She is so insightful and she sees the world and art itself so clearly and so gratefully
Yes! Thank you for covering Caspar David Friedrich, my favorite painter! And for giving a glimpse of my favorite painting, The Wanderer Above the Sea of Mist (3:18). Friedrich's somber awe at the sublime power of nature is what makes him great, and captures much of what it feels like to feel those moments in real life.

Clad_in_shadows Yeah I saw another video with her, and when I saw this video pop up I clicked on it just to hear her voice!
Clad_in_shadows ... and the subject is interesting
calm, soothing, and idk...I imagine kinda wifey
i really hope she doesn't read this chain
Her voice is so nice. I love it. Also this painter is amazing, love his work.
That voice! And yes, love the art of CDF, he was very evocative of that that early 19th century pan german romanticism. Too bad he died forgotten and poor, but he seemed to be suffering from depression all during his adult life.

This would be great! Did you guys ever get it done?
I was looking for your content on "The wanderer above the fog" by Caspar David Friedrich and ended up here :)
*Only 18* 👇👇👇
497404.loveisreal.ru
So that’s what made you so good
and six years later he did his own video on friederich
Put "The Wanderer Above The Sea of Fog" in fullscreen, and listen to the Gymnopedies from Erik Satie. I do it everytime I feel melancholic.
Better with his Gnossiennes, IMO, but great nevertheless.
This video: /watch?v=DR2DbU5Uq-4 have both the Gymnopedies and Gnossiennes XD
Qazmax Charming, thanks.
This guys art is so beautiful...
refreshing simplicity, honesty and kindness one can only agree with

I could listen to her read the dictionary. What a perfect voice!
Beautiful narrator inside and out
The best RUclips channel
A great romanticist painter

Your insightful explanation, your lexicon and choice of words was delightful. I'm in love ..... mournfully so
I really love Freidrich, maybe my absolut fovorite painter. When I was in London I was so exited to see one of his works in real life at the national gallery, but during my visit the whole romaticism part of the gallery was closed off... fuck me

I hope you get to go back!!

Beautiful video and a very beautiful lady. Well made and well presented.
Perfect!!! Thanks for this kind of videos. Would be great to see more of other painters.
Wow... her voice. It's like I was put in a trance. I also love her boots.
Beautiful artististc analysis of one of my favorite artists.
I love this new narrator/artwork editing arrangement. Exceptional.
Thank you so much for this wonderful tribute to Friedrich and how he can reach us.
Gosh, I love this channel. Thank you guys again for another wonderful video!
starting with *gosh* For The Win
This video, and its message, is perhaps more timely today (April 2020) than ever.
Beautifully done. Vielen Dank.
That man on the hilltop. I used to think it was Friedrich Nietzsche.
I'm learning about him right now! Very useful
This video was simply lovely. The narration is perfect as well and so pleasant to listen to. Thank you!
Thank you I really enjoyed this. I haven't come across this painter. Wonderful placing together of content, and painting.
Such a lovely lovely voice.
Why are you so mesmerising?
I am quite a fan of your looks, style, and sensibility.
Great channel - you sure know your art and philosophy.
wow! what a phenomenal artist and what a fantastic video!
I really wouldn't mind more videos being narrated by this gal.
Thank you for such magnificent video.
This lady is hypnotic
I'd believe all the lies that voice would come tell me.
I don't know your name my lady but you are mesmerisingly beautiful, you will make some fine young man very happy indeed with just your voice. Perfect for illustrating Caspar David Friedrich. I never say things like this, but it needed to be said.
She is beautiful, her voice is so attractive! any man would be lucky to have her.

brilliantly said, thanks for sharing. inadvertently fell in love a little bit as well
I must be the one who enjoys when this lady presents. I think it's because I would rather watch the usual animations.
Fascinating video! Everything The School of Life does is admirable.

And wow, I love the host's outfit! It pleasantly reminds me of my grandmother, very chic, if that is the right word :)
beautifully insightful explanation. Thanks for this video.
it's been almost a year since the last Art episode.. and we haven't seen even one Architecture episode.. are they yet to come?
Like many in the modern age, the first work I saw of his was "Abbey in the oakwood" and it struck me like a golf driver upside my head.
anyone know any other videos with this kind of beautiful voice? please I need recommendations
Thank you.
Watching this for my art finals hits different
Love her voice. Although, if it was higher pitched, it would remind me of Queeny in Blackadder. Miranda Richardson is awesome!^^
In youre description I missed a rather important information - in fact - his younger brother drowned in the icy water on an atempt to help Caspar rescue out of the ice - a for sure traumatic experiance, spreading deepest sadness and darkness - depression? - often to be seen in CDFs motivs.
I feel in tune with the soul of this art, his art,…. it's near the center area of my known ethnic ancestry
Love these videos. Best channel on RUclips!!
End to 0.29! IVE GOD TWO WORDS FOR YOU! MORBID CURIOSITY
School of Life use the image of the Wanderer Above a Sea of Mist almost as much as they use the elderly couple enjoying a glass of wine.
Not that there's anything wrong with that, it's evocatively iconic (or iconically evocative...)
Thank you!
Great narration and insightful. Look forward to more.
I cant wait for the architecture videos
You have a wonderful voice ;)

Amazing.
Awesome narration. The content is great obviously but i Love your voice
it is appreciable that there are no music behind the one of two important element of video recording - narration.
Thanks for introducing to this wondeful artist! Also, I'd like to inquire about Dr. Roxburgh. Does she have paintings of her own?
