Cornwall 'En Plein Air' over 100 years ago - paintings by Stanhope Forbes
มุมมอง 2572 ปีที่แล้ว
From wiki: Forbes generally painted genre scenes and landscapes en plein air.[2] After a Day's Work, made in 1907, provides a snapshot of life in a small village in Cornwall. In it a man, covered to protect himself from the rain, leads his horse through the wet streets, which bare the light and reflection from light from inside a house. "With superb skill, the soft light is reflected off the ra...

Thought this might be a good source of inspiration for plein air painters. The Tate website say he was the first plein air painter - not sure about that - wiki say otherwise.

Franz Radziwill - an artist forbidden to paint!
มุมมอง 2082 ปีที่แล้ว
In case anyone is wondering, Kunst is also German for 'art'. Video clips from this doc here: th-cam.com/video/1QE4Ld1mkoM/w-d-xo.html From wiki: Franz Radziwill (6 February 1895 - 12 August 1983) was a German painter known especially for his landscape paintings in a magic realist style. He was also associated with the New Objectivity movement. Radziwill was born in Strohausen. His father was a ...

Little Plein Air Box for 2 paintings
มุมมอง 982 ปีที่แล้ว
Just a quick one to show this little ultra-light box setup. This was made from a schminke paint box - and small plastic pots bought from amazon for the paint colours. The big tubes are in the vid as I went indoors to get some more colour - normally I'd just take the little pots (see later in the vid). This can transport 2 wet paintings. You just take out the outer painting board and turn it rou...

One of my favourites. Unfortunately he died too young...
One of my favorite artists. I have a few books of his work and him also included in books of Russian art, but this video! Half of these paintings I have never seen, so thank you so very much. That man. What soul..
nice paintings and nice place😮
thanks:)
Nice work :) like your choice of colors :)
thanks very much
I am in the process of completing an oil painting, in hopes to display it in my upcoming show in June
@@jsteelsadventureandvariety nice - good luck - I"ve never done a show - not even sold a painting haha...one day maybe:)
@@robinaart72 I think if you could get it out there, you will sell them. I joined an art club, and government gives us money to have a show yearly, its lots of fun :)
@@jsteelsadventureandvariety sounds good - I don't really speak the language much here in austria lol...bit of a fkdup situation tbh haha...but I'm working on networking...sort of...we'll see ..:)
Having been born and raised in Philadelphia my heart breaks for these poor souls. Kensington is a good example of what happens to a community when you take away the jobs and send them to China. So much for NAFTA and capitalism.
My favorite painter. no other makes you feel the cold wind, fresh air, immense space and distance, but also the intimacy of the small things. You can feel the mice in those grasses. His treatment is so subtle and free of "artistry" like "develop your own distinct trademark style". Yet I feel such strong artistic control and emotional awareness. He shows his innermost feelings and human nature, I feel I know him, know what was most important to him. His compositions are so bold, it's so hard to fill a canvas with so little. Each composition feels like an archetype, similar to a mozart motive where you wonder how nobody else came up with such simple and brilliant theme. And yet, despite these strong statements, it never feels like he wants to show off or prove some kind of "power". Instead his brushwork is soft, rounded and reduced, giving a feeling of vulnerability, humbleness and admiration for what he sees. I think he felt as a very small part of nature, not very important as an individual. His function on earth was to observe, record and communicate the reality to others so that they, with their less developed senses, can see as well. There is no other like him who paints so naturally and without his ego in the way.
Nice house tour! What is all the wood from/for? Btw, where's my Mechanisms Pt 2????
wood is for my heating system and logburner - its the edges from the timber yard that don't get turned into planks (cos they edges:)...mech 2? sure - I'm sure we had this convo before and I said message me your address..hmm.. maybe you did...I'm forgetful these days:)...anyway....message me it and I'll send you a copy, like the guy from creme broulee who can't give away his old tapes, only this time, it seems I can:)

Excellent presentation of an amazing artist!

FABULOUS ART A TRUE MASTER NEAR REMBRANDT
This is the first time I have ever seen Stanhope Forbes’ art that I am aware of, and I absolutely love his work. His use of light reminds me of Isaac Levitan, another landscape genius.
totally agree.
Watching from my phone at least I’d have believed if you said he was a photographer for many of these. I love the subject matter as well. I think those rural rustic scenes are the perfect. Though I imagine todays experts look down on it? There was a recent tv series about people reacting to stuff in the art gallery. Everyone was touched by August Schenck’s Anguish with sheep standing over its dead lamb. Well nearly everyone, there were a few “educated inner city” types who were dismissive of it but who did got all emotional over a couple of stripes (because they knew the so called artist was famous). I know it’s subjective and all but if the right person wipes his ass and frames it then it is a deep poetic commentary of the human condition and inequality. Meanwhile a minimum wage refugee is working as a cleaner in the toilets of the same gallery. Literally scrubbing the shit and mopping up the piss left by those wankers.
Totally agree - I really like this artist, but I also thought that some would think him a bit 'twee' - but - like you say - it's almost a photographic diary of older times . I've been wondering about a lot of 'modern' art - and guess what - loads of them were theosophists. Got me wondering if it wasn't some subversion to warp our senses - like up is down etc...as a lot of it genuinely speaks nothing to my soul - just silence - and some almost seems to make a mockery deliberately of those that are able to paint with some realism. If I said all this to an art 'expert' - they'd prob say I'm intellectually inferior. Maybe I am - but I don't want output from theosophists on my mind , so it's fine with me.
Wow. Incredible.
the giant about to chuck the rock on the boat is terrifying
yeah that's a great image isn't it - reminds I of our drystone walling days...sort of....
Wonderful video ! I had never heard of or seen his work. Some of his paintings look like photos touched up with a brush, some impressionist. Loved the light and atmosphere. He conveyed a sense of being there.
He seemed to use a muted palette for most of his works. Great compositions and a masterful control of values in his paintings. Much of his value shifts were done with subtle color temperature changes. His work struck me as conveying a sense of isolation and loneliness.
His use of colour and how he understood light is incredible.
Thank you for introducing this work, Rob. I like it very much. I've added some Rachmaninov Piano Concerto No.2 in Cm Op.18 after a few minutes and enjoyed it even better!
@@ninthheretic2498 I'd seen the thumbnail pic before, but didn't know who he was or his other work - some special paintings in this lot aren't there. I'd like to hear a dub version of that concerto :)
@@robinaart72 if no one made such version before already, they should. Then again, maybe not at all... 😵💫

Spectacular!!!!!
Agree! Like photo,s.
Never heard of this artist, his work is beautiful. It appears he can swing from realist, to impressionist very easy. Just Wonderful! Thanks!
Totally agree!
These are very beautiful, serene, moody pictures that anyone can appreciate. Thanks for sharing them.
Always a joy to discover an artist that I hadn't known about a minute before. Some wonderful works here. As noted by several others, I appreciate the pacing and lack of (unnecessary) soundtrack. The work stands quite well on its own.
thanks Gary
Only thing missing to elevate art even more would be some human content re figures. Great art.
Levitan was pure genius. Sadly he died at the young age of 40 from a life long heart condition. Who knows how many great works he may have done.
th-cam.com/video/myzszGVjkGY/w-d-xo.html
He sure knows his values!!!
He is good. Not quite as good as Peder Monsted. But then, nobody is.
must be something wrong with me, as honestly, I'm not that into his work! - I mean - don't get me wrong - I recognise immense skill and talent- no question - but on an emotional/evocative basis, more often than not, I don't feel it compared to Levitan (there are exceptions though- I'm just generalising) - obviously totally subjective though of course.
@@robinaart72 Agreed. they're both incredible artists. Just grateful to yourself and others who post so they wont be forgotten
Not as good as a "photo copier"? Perhaps. But much better as an artist.
I have heard of him and he is was incredible painted - sadly he died from heart disease at only 35 years old.
Great realism but same houses and no people . (A ghost town, no life.)
And all the better for it imo:) - if you compare to lets say Ivan Shishkin, Rain in an Oak Forest, 1891, I know which I would choose - no offence to Shishkin, but for me this is a good example of how figures can dominate and steal the thunder so to speak. For me, the lack of humans allows the landscape to do the talking, and conjure up an imaginary feeling or emotion from some lost perhaps inherited memory of other times....or something..when I see people, it becomes 'their' story, not mine.
I am a ultra beginner, have not even started painting, and just going thru TH-cam to learn what I can by others (I do realize I need to start and just make mistakes to learn). but I am a total analyst thinker and learner. I have to understand colors and tools first. Thanks for sharing this!
no problem - one thing I did was to do some charcoal drawings first, before I got into colour (I'd not done art for a couple of decades, so took a while to get back into it) - just doing charcoals is a great way to think about light and shadow etc - maybe having one special highlight to the picture - a single place where the white is brightest, and then keep the rest of the picture toned down from that - if you look at these paintings - often there's just one very small area that has the brightest part - and if you look in the shadows - even though there's colour differences - the light (or shade) intensity is always constant - this would be my other tip - don't put flecks of brightness etc in areas they shouldn't be. good luck:)
@@robinaart72 thank you for the comments and sharing your thoughts Robin. Look forward to your future videos.
For months now my mum watches Bob Ross on the tv every night. Staying up past her usual bed time. Trying to nag her to give it a go. A couple of times seen her draw or doodle and she has a talent.
I had thought of calling my channel Rob Boss...but I don't have the nerve or the ego haha ..pity...it's a good name:)
A lot of incredible talent has walked the paths of this forest - thanks for watching - hope this is inspiring to some of you.
Great work
glad you like it - thanks :)
They are fantastic, surprised I haven’t heard of him .
Actually, I have known about Levitan's work for some time now and find it fascinating. Thank you so much for showing these. Splendid presentation, by the way. No distractions - Just ART. - Superb.
Thanks Bob:)
Another GREAT video!! Today you became my ‘go to’ art inspiration channel!! I watched the Isaac Leviton video twice today as well!!
thanks v much Robert - glad you enjoyed these vids.
Incredible paintings! I’d never heard of him. And let me add, that this is the best artwork video I’ve seen! You did it exactly right! No distracting graphics or transitions. No music! And you left each image up long enough the study! Perfectly done!! Thank you so much!!
thanks v much Robert . 'And let me add, that this is the best artwork video' comment I've seen!! :)
I too appreciate the quiet, ability to absorb the painting without distracting noise/music, AND a decent amount of time allotted to study each one. Well done and thank you!
