- Waldemar looks at Le Dejeuner Sur L'Herbe, a large oil painting produced by Edouard Manet in 1862. This astonishing composition introduced an entirely new painterly approach, since it encompassed the genres of portraiture, landscape and still life within a single painting.

Luncheon on the Grass created a scandal when Manet showed it in 1863. The story behind the painting proves even more scandalous.

Great to see Waldemar back again. He hasn't been around for a while. I've missed him.
100%
He's 20 years younger here. How does he do it?
@@ferociousgumby Assuming it's just recycling of the older stuff. There's nothing new from Waldemar.
@@ferociousgumbyAt least 20 years younger, maybe more.
@@drhyshek Maybe he's an art time traveller, and that's how he knows so much about all this.
We want Walde-MORE!
More! You’re great at explaining art, context, and cultural forces.
That was fascinating. I like the way you explain art. Thank you.
Welcome back Waldemar!
Welcome back Waldemar! Great explanation of art again! But just don’t take so many holidays studying art and getting paid for it!
Waldemar we love you so much!!!
Waldemar reveals so much beyond the ken of the layman. I like his relaxed style too.
Bravo Waldemar.
I always learn so much from this presenter...thank you!
In Titanic movie I remember when Rose brought Manet painting on the ship. Later she posed for Jack exactly like lady presented by Waldemar.
Cheers! Waldy!
Waldemar is my favourite art critic, he always dives deep INTO the painting, and gives much more background and intentions of the artwork.
Waldemar you are as my teenage son would put you are "the GOAT" of presenting art ... I'm hooked on paintings thank you
Waldemar, le meilleur historien de l'Art. Ses commentaires sont percutants avec un humour so british. ❤ j'adore !!!!
OH MY GOD! So dark, so scandalous, so 19th Century, so utterly Superb! J'aims beaucoup!
I know right!? I was sitting there, watching with my jaw dropped!
As usual, Waldemar has expanded my wonder and appreciation of art immensely.
Manet painted his French culture without pity. It's totally in your face. The painting is magnificent in detail right down to the hairy armpit.
Bravissimo!!!
Manet - I love that painting - thanks Manet❤
thanks Waldemar
Thank you. Great explanation
It's a wonderful painting in and of itself. Love Manet.
You're helping me greatly with my art project! Much appreciated!
Excellent!
We need new Waldy.
More Waldemar, Please!!!
An interesting, ribald take that you don't get at the museum in re this icon of 19th century art history in a superb piece of work by Waldemar -with a delightful Noo Yawk assist.
This episode with a baby-faced Waldemar was filmed in 2004.
Remember kids, if you wan't to rebel, always have something on your dad.
"The courtesan is greeting her next client - me" lol
Moderately provocative take: Katy Perry's Women's World is Monet's Le Déjeuner sur l'herbe
Some videos I've recently watched discussing this picture look at the preliminary version, (its horrible.) Thankfully Waldemar takes the trouble to show us Manets masterpiece.
Interesting, but, of course, it's all speculation, nobody can definitively say what Manet's thinking was.
That was 2004, which seems a lost era.
Oh, I THOUGHT he looked a lot younger!
New to this channel, why's the video quality so bad?
Aloha!!❤These boys are amazing!! Eric...the residents and their stories are heart wrenching .....They should not be dealing with the threat of eviction constantly and than on top of that having to jump thru all kinds of hoops just to get a small amount if anything...Its obvious the Government is ignoring their needs ...i wish the world news would play these same stories every night so the whole world could see what is being done to these residents...Shame on the Government and Shame on President Biden...This is insane ...He has the nerve to get on the news each week to let us know a few more billion $$$ are being sent to other countries ... while the victims of these terrible mysterious disasters are suffering and being ignored....Its unacceptable and just absolutely insane.Sorry this is a long rant...but im just thinking of these amazing people a lot these days ..and I Thank God for you Eric🙏! Thank you for sticking up for these boys and all the other residents and giving them a platform to tell their story..I don't have much... but im going to give at least 10 bux...I like the idea of everyone giving a dollar...( If only🤔🙏 )But i love how you are not giving up Eric...) Im amazed by what yiu are doing for the people of Lahaina...👍💞We need more like you in this world...I pray they get what they need to make a fresh start..❤🙏🙏❤️
Internet much?
OK...terrific. 😅
Oh no he's back
21:20 Gone Wee? 😊
What’s with the intro music ? 😂
This episode has been cut or edited at 23.33. It ends abruptly. Rather jarring and frustrating. Not Waldemars' style...
Can assure you this is the end of the episode
They didn't approve of this painting because it's always difficult for men to look into the mirror....
However, the nude Woman up front and center, sees the viewers Soul, and is calling them out with her smile...
I think they had a problem with her boldness, looking straight into the "camera" without any hint of self-consciousness. Surely she should have at least shown some shame! The other thing is - she's real. He does not airbrush out all her earthly features and flaws, does not idealize her in any way, which to me reveals her true beauty. I think the woman scared the art world half to death.
Without Manet there’d be no Impressionism and without Impressionism there’d be no modern art..hmmm I like Manet but doesn’t sound like that big a deal
Slavery in the USA was abolished on January 31, 1865. The earlier "emancipation proclamation" by Lincoln purported only to free slaves in areas that were not controlled by the Union. It had no basis in law. (Slavery remained codified in the Constitution.) The proclamation had no practical effect other than as propaganda.
Oh, puh-leeze!
@@BGTuyauCorrection: The Constitutional Amendment that abolished slavery was _proposed_ on Jan 1, 1865. It was ratified in December of the same year. Otherwise, the comment is correct.
Manet's painting, profiled here, leaves me perplexed, in purpose and choice. It occurs to me that he may have largely made the choice to gain attention. Like Media is overwhelmingly used today.
His later works are delicious, but I don't find this painting attractive, her expression is unattractive.
The model just really doesn't speak of art, to me. It's an individual taste matter for each.
Maybe, I don't get the 19th Century eye for beauty ... It is her expression, her attitude that speaks louder that her being nude.
I would be interested in Manet's own statement's on the Painting and the Model.
Clearly he was obsessed with her, and likely suffering some unfulfillment in his obsession.
The "Olympia" painting, is just not a good painting, the legs look awkward, it looks like a student's, rather than achieved, and I don't pretend because "the Art Interrupter" is flowing with their compliments.
One has to 1st feel visually positive towards the piece.
Perhaps Manet is evolving, Maturing in Thought, and he certainly achieved a Higher Minded value of Thoughts, apparent in the extremely attractive later paintings.
She *couldn't care less.
Manet > Andy Warhol
Is it possible that the woman in the painting is not, in fact, naked and that the painting is done to show that whenever women are present around men that is how men see them? Or is it done as appreciation for Victorine where he is coming upon the picnic and sees this woman he does love and see her only in her purest form? Is it possible her nudity is symbolic or implied rather than a woman sitting naked with men who don't so much have a shoe or sock off??
Waldemars last name is so frustraction. How many z's and c's do you need in a single name???
The Girl in the river is absolutely not having a pee, if she were that is just not the position she would have adopted, she is taking
the opportunity I believe to, wash herself, pee through her shift I really don't think so, unconcerned in the foreground and coy in
the background ?
Exactly
there are so many art arttists but still you guys take the same ones... can you guys look for a few woman artists also ? there is always somthing new to find and to explore you never know what you find :)
Artists are artists. They’re not men artists and women artists. Get a grip!
He is trying to enliven the history of art. Please pay attention and learn from him. Un raison d'etre.
@@lolamae3247 But female artists, like female writers, often had to take a male name, and sometimes were not even legally allowed to publish or promote their work. And this ensures their work would just fall into obscurity. Germaine Greer got a whole book out of this: The Obstacle Race.
Once you go into bizarre, tabloid speculations like "What could Manet have on his father?", it completely falls apart. Not sure who your audience is supposed to be here, but I just move on elsewhere.
Bye, Felicia!
Waldemar goes for the un-stuffy approach and sometimes throws in some vernacular expressions just to avoid the DREADFUL stultified delivery of absolutely *_every_* other art critic that appears in these Perspective videos. I only watch them to combat insomnia.
