Riveting history, not only of Claude the charm, but of old master drawings. They got pasted into albums, like snapshots a hundred years ago? Yikes. With figures, I never know exactly what the gestures mean; was there a code of body language? This series could go on forever, and I'd always be grateful! Thank you Xavier, thank you Frick!
Thanks again your charity "coctail".The landscapes and the biblical story Rachel and Lea painting I finde also a masterpiece again Have a god weekend Mr.Salamon and sucsess with reopening on Medison avenue
Another lovely episode. I enjoyed very much to watch a drawing instead of a painting, and also to see a work by Claude Lorraine a little bit different to the works normally displayed in most of the museums. Just great! Thank you Mr. Solomon for letting us know of the new face we will see next week. Looking forward to it, but please do not go very far from us.
What a great story and perfect explanation of history of sketch and paintings. Just wish I had prosecco to complete the Valentine's cocktail. Best to us all in Year of the Ox!
Fabulous as always. Small Biblical correction - it's Mary and Martha, not "Mary Magdalene and Martha" that are compared to these two Old Testament sisters, Rachel and Leah. There are quite a few Mary's in Jesus' life, like his mother, and someone called "the other Mary." They often get conflated, but they are very distinct in character. Mary and Martha were sisters and lived with their brother Lazarus. Mary Magdalene was a different person, an independent and forthright woman, called "the apostle to the apostles" because she was the first witness to the resurrection.
I was curious about this question of several Mary’s. A quick google search led me to the information that this is oft debated, but not 100% provable. I’m going to read more carefully about it. I thoroughly enjoy these Cocktails With a Curator which teach me so much.
About to make this cocktail..was surprised when I couldn’t find any recipe for it outside the Frick’s website 😆 Do people recommend using sweet vermouth or dry? 🍸
The Claude glass-a small convex round mirror -used by sightseers to frame a landscape so that it resembled a Claude Lorraine landscape painting-is named for this painter but there is no evidence he ever knew of it.
Today, Claude Lorrain is considered as French painter. But he was not French painter. In his time his nationality was Lotharingian, from Lorraine. He never felt French.
Hm, this deception could have been avoided had Jacob only looked at his bride's face, or talked to her, on their wedding night. And didn't Laban have seven years to find a husband for Leah? These ancient Israelites were irrational (o; Incidentally, is there a reason why Claude Lorrain is known by his first name?

Love this friday night tradition
Good luck with the opening and thank you for another illuminating video.
Salud! Apart from always delivering fascinating information about the art, the cocktails are really interesting too.
Beautiful essay about the Frick in the NEW YORKER MAG.
looking forward to this, first time, but love The Frick

yes, I also caught that small error. Mary Magdalene is not the sister of Lazarus but a different Mary from the Mary and Martha story.
Happy Valentine's WE!

Have not known,than Lorain is a nickname.
Hello from MA waterfront
So that is who Laban was, good to know. Jacob Indentured for a bait and switch. Caveat emptor. Thanks.
