She didn't actually have a pearl earing.
Dresses of simple women from different periods are also interesting, not only wealthy/aristocratic. You can show them too?)
Could you, please, make 1800-1810 English getting dressed.

when she turned out to be the girl with the pearl earring lemme tell you i was SHOOK
Tooki Wolfpaint IKR, I didn’t see it coming

Women did not get their periods monthly back then. They only got it a few times a year so they really didn't have to think about that too often.
Brought tears to my eyes!
@@az2224 I love your username
I imagine that by 7055, people would be watching videos of us getting dressed.
"*_And now, a blue garment called the jeans were pulled up to the hip, and a hooded jumper would be put on for warmth. Two white strings fell down onto the chest to compliment the modest look_*"
Ikr !
You forgot "the shoes were made with leather,sued,cloth and were held in place by buckles, laces, orba simple strip of a new inovation velcro
Make this happen
well, let’s assume that the world still survive at that time
And sleeves were extra long to allow for indoor activities such as hitting siblings with them.
Beautiful ending. She is almost identical to portrait.
prawie nie znaczy że tak samo.... Namalował Vermeer służącą a nie damę , w jednej sukience była na obrazie
The eyebrows are the most glaring difference IMO.
@@alfredoprime5495 In my mind her makeup is the most glaring difference :-D
That ending caught me by surprise!
And the maid is exacted like the one of The Milkmaid from the same painter 🤩
....OH GOSH!!!
Has nobody noticed this detail?
The old lady is the milkmaid, ....another painting by the painter Vermeer!.
"The Milkmaid" (Vermeer)
OMG never noticed that before!!
This comment needs to be higher up.
Also, the 'foot-warmer' that the Girl with a Pearl Earring uses can be seen in the background of 'The Milkmaid'.
The detail in this video is just...*chef's kiss
Great catch ♡
No wonder the old maid looks familiar. Haha.. Thanks for pointing that out.
Well done Einstein
To everyone saying it would take forever to get dressed: the video is 8 min long and they didn’t speed anything up.
It's faster than I am in the mornings 🤣
Wouldn’t fancy running for my train dressed like this in the morning 😅😂
@@eastender1862 or in true Dutch fashion, biking 🤣🤣
Well they skipped the lacing corset moment
8 minutes is enough time to brush, shower , pick outfit and get dressed for me and most men. Lol
You know what I love about this? People actually lived slowly enough to even entertain the idea of dressing like this on a daily basis
EnigmaDrath yeah absolutely understand that but you know what I mean this kind of thing doesn’t exist anymore at all, guess maybe in other countries some royal families still take this much care though
KHALIIL01 your so right 😫
Even tho they used to sleep and wake up with the sun. So when its sunrise they would wake up normally and when the sun sets and it becomes dark they go and sleep
Maybe not immediately but like one hour after
same
@KHALIIL01 or for me, 20 seconds to an hour, depending how much effort I put into my hair:)
It blew my mind when she said "indoor activities...such as letter writing"
Um. Why?
@@skjaldulfr i have short term memory and I dont remember why I said that XD.
@@royuchiha8297 lol
Right? 😂😂😂
What's letter writing, a new fashion trend.
Imagine being so rich that you don't even put on socks by yourself.
Imagine having your period and having to pee every hour dressed like that? Ummm thank you lord I was born in the 90s.
@@Simplelivingslowliving true that
ROCK YOUR NATURAL you just have to put up the skirt layers, it’s actually very easy 🤗
@@Simplelivingslowliving i was actually thinking abt it the whole time.
@@f0restangel 🤣🤣🤣 that's a lot of layers to put up with.

They nailed it to me tho
Bermuda triangle, solved.
I searched this lmao
Recommendation..
I searched for this though
me: i should probably get some sleep
also me: OOO LETS SEE HOW TO PUT ON CLOTHES FROM THE 1600’S
School starts- well- tomorrow now, and my "strict" sleep schedule is already f'ed
Same girl... Same! 😂
Lillian Miller me rn
Me right now 😂
Same
Wasn't expecting her to be "The girl with the pearl earing"!!💞
I feel like we are attracted to dressing these ways because the layers and beauty contribute to a feeling that is similar to meditation or selfcare. There's nothing meditative or lovely about throwing on jeans and a tshirt.
Nothing to do with eastern meditation but Christianity.
The second I saw those earrings I was like OMG THEYRE RECREATING THE PAINTING!! you guys are the best!! For an art and history nerd this was pure joy
Yes haha I absolutely loved the ending, my eyes went wide open and I went " omggg no wayyy " haha.
i thought it was just gonna be a simple video like some of the previous ones but this took a twist my jaw dropped when she pulled out the teardrop pearl earrings.
Same! I love and obsessive over History and Art!
Same!
The other woman is dressed the same way that other lady that poured milk (other painting)
I got chills at the ending reference of the 1665 painting and the fact that she looked so identical to that is strikingly uncanny. So loved this. Subscribing Today.
Jungkook Jin Hajima HEY ARMYYY
@Ashley C sorry some people are smarter and a lot better at explaining themselves. you want them to dumb it down for you?
I've rewatched this video so many times trying to get a general idea of how everything was put together and worn and I kid you not, EVERY time I watch it I get chills
Ashley C she doesn’t sound like that though?
It was amazing!
I hadn't considered the Little Ice Age when looking at Period clothing. It makes perfect sense that people would have worn as many thick layers as possible, or as much as they could afford.
Loved this video.
Love how they intertwined historic getting dressed with historic portraits. Would like to see more of these type of videos.
You are absolutely right!
I literally thought to myself “hmmm she looks like the girl with the pearl.... oh yep”
As all women pretty much followed the fashion of the day, all the portraits would have looked the same. You may imagine that only the wealthiest would afford paintings made of themselves (no selfies, and cheap). No wonder they all looked so "stiff" wearing those items especially that whale bone corset!
Me too
Dang it why do I read comments during the videos? Spoilers 😭
imagine having to wear this on your period damn
keren Arellano how did they do it 😱
On their period they would wear a different garment that was made to absorb the blood.
Olivia Kukahiko source? from what i understand there’s quite a bit of contention about what women did/wore on their periods throughout history, as it wasn’t generally the sort of thing that was recorded. however, i can say that with the luxury of modern conveniences like pads/tampons and analgesics, it’s really not that much different. toilets can be difficult to navigate, but you learn to deal with the skirts. and on the plus side, you never have to worry about staining your pants!
Well, till the 20th century, undergarments for women were really rare. They wouldnt wear anything pant like at all under their chemise, so for the longest time, women just let it flow-
There are rumors about some using moss in the medieval days for example, but there is no proof for that.
(Lets just say Im glad that we are in the 21st century by now-)
I've read of sponges and also linens used for the purpose.
Does anyone else find it amazing that despite this young woman's identity and who she was being lost to time and history, her visage is known by millions of people the world over, some three centuries after her passing? She was portrayed in a Hollywood film and, here, she's portrayed in a video on the internet, something that people during that time couldn't have even conceived of. I think that's what makes art and artists so amazing; in a small way, they make immortality possible.
They did conceive being watched, but not by cameras.
Proof that the greatest accomplishment for any woman throughout history was/is to be beautiful :P
Boys back then: i saw her ankle
SO HOT !
Hahaha
LOL 😅😅
Boyz now : I saw her....from angle to cranium... flaming hot !!
Lol
The stays (corsets but not really) are flat in the front hence the boobs are pushed up quiet a bit and the stay ends mid breast, sooo they saw some great cleavage back then
I really love the narrators voice! It's so soft and pleasant to listen to
If it wasn't for the fake accent...
dXb there was no accent
Same

That ending gave me goosebumps! Beautiful production with a stunning conclusion! Please don't ever stop, I adore this channel
Veronica Park I read the book many years ago and I get to keep the copy. It was given by my colleague. I still have it.
Vee I really enjoyed it because I just read the book of the same name about the fictional creation of this art piece.
In the 2020's, even the upper class dressed themselves. Undergarments were simple and minimal as heating and air conditioning had become widely popularized and accessible in the western world. Denim pants known as blue jeans, or simply jeans, were incredibly popular. While the name blue jeans implies that all pants in this era were blue, denim could come in nearly every color imaginable. However, the classic blue hue was most common. Many adolescents of this time had abandoned the tight, elastic jeans of the last decade, opting for a looser cut, often cuffing the bottom as mass-manufacture led to clothing that was not quite a perfect fit. Simple, loose cotton shirts were worn on top, often times with varying prints, text, images, and colors that could be bought to suit each person's liking. These were known as t-shirts. While most were of the short-sleeved variety, long-sleeved t-shirts were not uncommon. Blue jeans and t-shirts were worn by every gender. Shoes were often made to be comfortable, and came in many styles and varieties - the most common either simply slid onto the foot or attached by laces. Socks were typically worn under shoes and came in many styles, the most popular ending at the ankle. Makeup was most often worn by women, but this was a time when gender norms were breaking and it was becoming more normal for makeup to be worn or not worn by nearly anyone. Hair and makeup were determined by each person's own unique style, with many people taking inspiration from favored celebrities.
The two crowseye videos that almost brought me to tears were the Gioconda and this one. Can you imagine, those two girls, sitting casually at a chair, being instructed by a painter to stay still for a couple of hours, their boredom of just sitting there, holding that same pose and expression, getting tired of holding that same neck and back position for hours at a time (especially the Girl With a Pearl Earring!!!, such a twisted neck!!!). I don't think that they ever realized at that split moment in the ebb of infinite time, that, in the midst of their boredom, their tiredness at holding the same pose for hours, their faces would be recognized by the entire human race. Whether they realize it or not, those few split moments in history, made their beauty worth the wait.
This one of the most beautiful comments I've ever read.
Everyone says that historical clothes look so uncomfortable, but I think wearing a chemise, petticoats and cozy stockings would be so comfy. Idk maybe I’m weird.
I've always said it'd be cool to try wearing certain things from historical fashion, too. Practically speaking, they're not very functional for the modern woman, but the clothes were just so pretty! One thing I *don't* mind missing out on is the corset. I know people say depending on what kind it is and how you wear it, they're really not that uncomfortable, but...nah brah, definitely not my thing and I'm so thankful it's not the convention to wear them today (even though I know some choose to and that's cool). That's just me.
I agree. Especially in Winter!
Stockings are already super comfy, so I don't doubt it
it's not the chemise, the petticoats or the stockings that are uncomfortable in these outfits. corsets were almost banished from womens fashion for a reason lol. i don't mind wearing a well fitted and tailored corset for a couple of hours but imagine spending the whole day, every day in a corset, having to work in it, probably even exercising in one.. nope thank you!
@@martinainniger6716 actualy the idea of the being corset being for a small waist did not exist until around the Victorian times. What was used by women before that was the stays they were more used to support the bust those who could afford it boned it with whalebone but the lower would often bone them with a bundle of reeds that was a lot more flexible. So if you were rich enough to afford whale bone then you would not need the flexibility to work.
The minute i saw the yellow cloth I was suspicious. The earrings appeared and I was like....ooooh
Sarah Hamilfan I was about to say that about the Milkmaid. First time seeing this video I thought her blue apron looked somewhat familiar.
The movie with Scarlette Johansson as the girl right?
Same! That was beautiful and very clever.
The foot warmer is called a ‘voeten stoof’ in Dutch so “feet-stove” my mum has a few original ones from this era.
The final shot is chillingly enchanting. She is perfect and has such beautiful eyes.
there is just something so satisfying about these videos.
So much concern for detail and very well executed. Well done things just feel right.
It's so "cool" to see how people dressed back then
Nigga got ASMR
You are merely being reminded of a former lifetime. Your soul remembers.
Like a little time travel :-)
See how much time they have living without internet 😂
About 2 million years actually!..
But how they filmed and shared this video without the internet?
@@rahmaadnan4390 I hope this is a joke...
@@monivm1940 😁😁ys it is
I bet they sleep all day
I just realized that not only the noblewoman, but also the maid are reference to a Vermeer painting. Incredible details, love it
Idk who got the idea to base these GRWMs on famous paintings but it’s genius and they should get a raise
Shout out to everyone else in the comments also watching this in the middle of the night instead of sleeping. 😆
I feel ya now gimme one of those
haha
Hahahaha
Yep
I hear you! 🦘🇦🇺
Just gorgeous. The part from 7:13 onwards, when the painter comes in, and all prior hints fall into place, is particularly breathtaking for being shot in a painterly, even Vermeer-esque, way - rich colors, luminous pearlized surfaces. In addition to the Girl with a Pearl Earring, there seems to be a second Vermeer lady here - the servant's dress, with its brown jacket, blue apron, and white headdress, seems very similar to that of his Milkmaid/Kitchen Maid...
Pritika Pradhan that and did you notice the candle holder in the beginning with Vermeers signature blue color?
@@jgallub Good catch! The candleholder is most likely Delftware (blue and white pottery made in Delft in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, in imitation of imported Chinese blue and white porcelain); as you noted, it shows up frequently in Vermeer's work.
I deeply enjoyed this video. The ending was beautiful and quite surprising!
Covid 19 got me watching every getting dressed videos of the past
same here
There’s something so warming about how everything used to be.
Courtney Matrix I agree sometimes I wish I lived then
Mae Alguire until you get the Spanish flu
Probably because of all the layers, it probably traps a lot of heat.
Honestly I kinda wished I lived back then
@@orchidsarepretty1422 all fun and games till you realize you don't have any rights and are forced to marry at the ripe old age of *child.* Provided you live that long.
Is no one gonna talk about the fact that the other woman looks like "the milkmaid" also by Johannes Vermeer?
I knew she looked familiar!
* Halfway through *
Wealthy: woman I have to piss
Maid: 😐😑
😂
That's easy, just grab a chamber pot and lift up your skirt, lol! No need to fiddle with buttons or snaps or zippers or anything.
FACTS!! it must have been a pain in the ass
Winnie YT she has no panties or anything, like it’s all skirts. She could just lift them up and pee
Yep that was my thought to lol.. Gotta pee bad 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I just found this Channel and I am mesmerized! The moderators voice is amazing and makes these videos seem like an experience! I feel transported back in time. Beautiful...educational and inspirational. Thank you.
Everyone is freaking out over the ending whereas I have just learned I have been reading chemis wrong my entire life.
Bahahaha!!!
Gabby and Sabrina Ooh!! Same here. It’s a good thing I’ve never said it in public.
chemise - french for shirt actually...long or short
....how were you reading it? Kaymis? Ch (as in cherry) meese?
Apparently, you were spelling it wrong as well! XD (I am only joking, please don't take to too close to your heart:)
i feel like putting the stockings on first might have been more logical
Same
less warm though
You know how easily stockings can get a run. There's too much of a risk if you did that first.
I think that if that was a peasant woman, she would have put the stockings on first. However, this one had a maid, so she could help her with the stockings.
@@patricialarisova9360 yeah I agree. I saw a lot of those 'how women dressed in blah blah' and it was said EVERYTIME that the stockings and shoes were put on before the rest because it wouldn't be possible to put them on afterwards due to limited moving. So I guess in that case it's logical to do it the other way around? I don't know
This finished look is my favorite of all the historic fashions. Beautifully done with fine fabrics and refined colours and silhouette. Gorgeous!
Loved this soo much... I kept thinking at the start that the dressing maid looked like De MelkMeid from Vermeer... then at the end it all made sense... Beautiful video, soothing voice and informative.
Bloody hell...it takes a century to get dressed and another century to undress...thank goodness I was born in this century...t-shirt and jeans! 😁
Thank Coco Chanel :P
actually, you could get it done easily under 20 min.
It's not even what I do.
My night dress is a t shirt and underwear.
My day dress is just putting on a pant.
That's it, not even a belt. I'm a simple man
I do kinda wish we still dressed like this. It's beautiful, and so warm!
im a guy so all i do is just put on my leopard thong and call it square
I got chills when I saw the earrings. This artists prefers the realism and technique of the Old Masters. Vermeer is one of my favorites! Thank you for sharing!!
Mine too ! Do you remember the way he painted tapestries !! Its beyond perfection
I would love to dress the way they do I find it gorgeous
True
You can! It's a bit expensive tho.
@@mea864 yeah, definitely out of my current price range
@@smolpinkangel520 Do It! It’s not too expensive when you make it yourself, i recently made a Georgian chemise/smock for £6! If you know where to look for fabric, its really cheap :))
imagine hooking up with someone, and having to take this off.
No need. Just flip the skirts up and you're good.
Riley Smiley ew thats true
angryhistoryguy ye but what if you want to like motorboat or some other shit
bling'd there was not one button on her garments everything was laced up. All you’d need do is pull the lace enough to loosen the garments. Also they didn’t wear underwear back than so not even need to undress
P3891 not fun
BEST PLOT TWIST EVER! My artists soul is now fulfilled: historical costume AND beautiful art? Amazing.
2019: "You take three hours to get ready? What a waste of time"
Then: "You take three hours to get ready? Dang teach me how you do that so fast"
RUclipsrs makeup artists do take three hours to get ready. Much more layers are applied to theirs faces than clothes back then 😂
It only took 8 minutes. That was the entire video.
kahula4x4 oh shut up
Jane dude chill :/
@@awhellyeah12 take a deep breath.
Beautiful! So precious to see this whole process! In Panama, the "Pollera", the national dress, wears all those layers -because it comes from Spain- with two peticotes, linrn embroidering, valencienne lacing and pearl flowers for the head. Thanks a million!!!
The ending was amazing I was in shock when I saw that in the ending she was the girl from the painting. Extremely beautiful video.
This video is a piece of art. You make stunning productions.
Yeah, I mean, they litteraly recreate a famous painting in the video!
The narrator had the most soothing voice and perfect the way she took us on this walk back in time. The young lady at the end looked like a portrait. Shes beautiful!
What a lovely video! I loved the end part, such a fun surprise!!! Thank you (I want to watch it again. Well done. You turned an 8 minute video into something really interesting and memorable) 🌺
How weird I’m actually reading Girl with a pearl earring and this popped up😲🤔
It's not a supprised your phone monitors you. We were sat at a bbq and siri miss heard my partner and told him not to commit suicide. Your devices are always listening.
Indoor activities -- such a letter writing.
And staring... or having a portrait of you painted... of course after the difficult task of having someone dress you 😅
.. can't wear long sleeves and risk dragging your sleeve across the ink and smearing it all over the page, not to mention all over the sleeve.
Back then letter writing was the main form of communication and something that was expected of educated people - and thanks to computers and social media, it is becoming a lost art ;-)
Hand job as well
I mean it is an activity you primarily do indoors. That's how English works.
i’m honestly so surprised and happy that this channel exists. i’ve always had an interest in historical clothing but it was never easy to find or research examples that were realistic, and this channel is the perfect place for that! :)
I have a interest in historical clothing. I wish I was an actor in this clothing.

This film is beautiful 🙂 And the voice of the narratorice is soooo silky and beautiful too. And the last phrase "and today... she is simly known as.......... "The girl.... with a pearl earring" is simply acoustic poetry. Magestic and divine 🙂 I could listen to this endlessly. It's beautifully said and it's somehow healling. Congratulations and huge thanks 😍
This documentary was amazing, it allowed us to understand their advantages and challenges... at least a glimpse of the upper class way of life in the Netherlands back them. And the ending, the connection with this famous painting... and the soothing voice of the narrator.
You nailed the jacket perfectly ! alot of recreations use dull material (probably wool) but if you look at the jacket the shimmer and sheen of the fabric suggests satin. Similarly the tail of the turban has a slight sheen that many people don't pick up on.The satin of this jacket and the sheen of the turban tail really make this look like the painting! Absolutely stunning!
That bodice looks more comfortable and supportive than some of today's bras. I like the fact that it could sort of be worn as outerwear without the need for additional bust support. I wish I could find something like it. #bustyladyissues
MizzKittyBichon I can tell you in all honesty, it was SO COMFORTABLE! 😉
I know right?! Oof
Yes! I won't mind if they bring stays back into fashion, just so I won't have to struggle finding a bra that actually fits
You know, they still have stays made for reenactors on some sites. And stays may not be the cheapest thing to buy nowadays, but some corsets are pretty cheap. The overbust corsets are what you’re looking for. Most well-made off the rack corsets cost about $60-$80. Some good first corset brands to try out are Orchard Corset and Timeless Trends. Make sure to talk with one of their sizing experts so you can get the best fitting corset they have for your measurements. And if you’re concerned about the effects of corseting on your body, check out Lucy’s Corsetry on RUclips. She has a lot of informative videos and corset reviews. Just so you know :)
Yes, I know quite a bit about corsets. I own several of them as a matter of fact. I am also subscribed to Lucy's channel and am very familiar with Orchard Corset, Timeless Trends, Dark Garden, Starkers, and many other corset brands and one-person businesses. What I was saying was that I would like to find a boned bodice like the one shown in the video that functions like both stays and outerwear. That way I can wear only one thing on the top half of my body (except for a chemise-like garment underneath of course) without the need for extra bust support. I hope that all makes sense.
I’m not one for historical ladies fashion, but the narrator’s voice is relaxing, and it all comes together satisfying, and history is interesting, so I shall binge the series for the next hour or 18.
Ah that was a beautiful ending. One of my favorite paintings ever.
As a dutch citizen, I greatly appreciate this, I never so much effort was needed to get dressed in the dutch golden age. so a dreamy era.
Het filmpje is letterlijk 8 minuten lang, waarbij ze de tijd nemen om uit te leggen wat ze doen? Zo lang waren ze helemaal niet bezig. Als dit je dagelijkse kleding is dan kan je met ongeveer 5 minuten klaar zijn.
As soon as she got the head scarf out, I knew it was that portrait.
Brilliant!
Excellent! Thank you for sharing that with us.
Fun fact, the girl with the pearl earring was said to be a servant to one of the artists patreons.
And it’s not a pearl earring. If you look closely at the painting you can easily see that. If I remember correctly there are several ideas of what juwellery it is but the experts are not sure, only that it is not pearl.
@@tsaszymborska7389 That is true! If I remember correctly, that 'pearl earring' is actually just a smudged drop of white paint, that gave the illusion of there being a pearl earring. Lucky for the painter, as just a little touch up from his side allowed the 'mistake' to be turned into something beautiful.
@@tsaszymborska7389 or maybe it is a pearl. Just that, because of the black background, it was easy to just paint two smudges of paint :) perhaps Vermeer didn't put too much mind on it
What you said is true... Vermeer painted a servant in that potrait ! He has other bful potraits too of maids doing baking etc
Actualy she was in jail because she killed her abuseive father. I learned this from a tour I went on in Tennessee
Everyone: Wow this took hours to put on and it must have been sooo hot
Video: -*takes 8 minutes to get dressed* -"This was also the time known as the Little Ice Age"
Yeah. Exactly. I mean, how stupid do you need to be to make such a claim when the video proves otherwise? It's a shame that those comments are on top and yours all the way down.
I've been watching a lot of videos like this because it's so interesting to see how many layers people had to wear back then
The quarter sleeves made it easy for indoor activities such as LETTER WRITING. I love that! hahah
I live here in Delft and my grandma has a foorwarmer
We need a video showing middle/working class dress from this time! Love it!
So well done and such a beautiful model - thank you
I am 9YEARS OLD and I am so interested in to HISTORY and this video has so much info in it!!
That's great, keep on learning :)
Ella .F why do people need to know your age
Ok? I mean im 5 and i like to read. I read 104 pages in 20 mins. So whats wrong?
badrya alamri No one said it was a problem it’s just weird that her being nine is a point and do you really need to ‘brag’ about being able to read
Interested in history I hear?
What are your thoughts on Hamilton?
Stumbling across your videos was a blessing. I love every single part of it. It is such high quality content that is both extremely relaxing and educational. I suffer from anxiety and depression and watching these videos just brings me joy, satisfaction and a sense of calm that I rarely experience. Please keep up the amazing work
Loved this, and pleeeeease do this time period, but in England! I want to see Restoration style dress!! Thanks so much, love your videos 🥰
Would love to see the maid’s dress routine too! Love seeing all the working women’s vids!
Much better than the movie about the portrait and more logical explanation. I found this very interesting because the basic dress components were relatively simple and unadorned. I was also surprised about the bodice and that stays were not worn underneath. Very nice presentation.
I saw the earrings and I flipped out! I dream of one day being able to paint like a Dutch master. I love this!
Berkley Pearl please don't say "Dutch master" that is very racist white supremacist term especially since the Dutch owned slaves and were "slave masters". Just be more considerate of other races when wording your sentences next time, thank you.
The Founding Fathers, I wasn’t talking about race. I was talking about painting. In the 17th century the Netherlands was at a huge economic boom and lead to the arts becoming an extremely important part of their culture. During this time there came many artists, such as Johannes Vermeer, who practically defined the way contemporary painters use oil paints today. If that’s not ‘mastery’ of a specific painting technique I don’t know what is.
Berkley Pearl yes but saying "Dutch master" as a general term can be seen as racist and very offensive to black people who were victims of evil Dutch slavers. Master was used as name for slave owners which would imply they were masters of slaves as if they were less than human or "animal" pets only there to do their bidding. You can like art works of Dutch painters, but Dutch "culture" if you can even call it that shouldn't by no means be celebrated or looked at as something as good since all the wealth and power they generated was on the backs of slaves and non whites. Even to this day Dutch people use black face as part of their culture. Any "culture" that still condones black face in 2018 should never ever be seen as inspiring or good.
i can't wait to see some of your paintings!
and btw, just ignore the other person, we all know what is referred to with the Dutch Masters (de Nederlandse Meesters as we say in dutch)
(wh themselves weren't always very rich the thing about the golden age was that everyone and their mom was painting about, the great quantities caused lower values)
Yes. I want to get so much better at painting and art in general. I find that being naturaly observant and curious helps with that. I am constantly noticing things about the world. Water has always facinated me. And birds. The universe is so incredibly beautiful and amazing and awesome and I want to be able to understand and show and learn from as much of it as possible. I have always loved the fact that you can look at something and them make that something apear on a piece of paper. It sounds kind of weird when you put it like that. Vermeer is interesting. I watched a documentary a while ago about how he might have used mirrors while painting and I was going to try it, but I tend to forget about and abandon most things like this that I start. Eyes and light are also wonderful. Shadows are both a thing I really need to improve and a thing I find really interesting.
Beautifuly done! Thanks for the video

You can find them in every second hand store, although many people wouldn't know what they were used for initially.
I use mine to keep knick-knacks in (and until I saw this video, I had no idea they were footwarmers).
