One of Mozart’s pupils, Johann Hummel described his teacher being of “small build, his face pale; his physiognomy contained much that was pleasant and friendly, with a touch of melancholic seriousness; his large blue eyes gleamed brightly.”
Mozart had smallpox at age 11, including pustules on his eyelids which left him blind for several days. The paintings don’t show anything but his “real face” must have had the scars smallpox leaves behind.
The second to last portrait was supposedly the most accurate of him. It was painted but not completed and was done by the man who became his widow's second husband. She declared it an extremely accurate picture of him. He was a redhead and was known well for his foul mouth.
His financial struggles were due to him trying to be a kid again, spending to have fun, it’s psychological he spent his child hood working and practising, the man just wanted to have fun and doing what he loved !
@@ifyouloveChristyouwillobeyhimIt's not an excuse. It's a logical theory to why he behaved like that, which is important to understand where this kind of attitude comes from. Stop acting like everything is an excuse, you sound ignorant. Understanding psychology is extremely important, especially because we can use the knowledge to prevent it from happening in the future. Mozart was a victim from child exploitation, which is still very common in the art industry (and other areas) today. A child NEEDS to be a child and have fun in order to be a healthy adult in the future. So no, it's not an excuse, it's common sense.
It's great to see one of my favorite classical composers brought to life! Except for the 18th century hairstyle, he looks like a pleasant young man you'd see in town (video, starting 0:03). I'd also like to see Chopin brought to life!
I think that's the joy of these creations. How they go from a stylised portrait into a real person who you could meet in Tesco... Is it just me or does anyone else find themselves smiling back at them when they smile?
The Mozarteum have stated that he had brown eyes but a number of people ie. friends have stated he had most definedly blue eyes. Great video! I would love to see Dante since he had an amazing face.
I think the brown eyed thing was a personal choice by the artist, most Austrians were blue eyed and there are plenty of historical accounts to back up Mozarts blue eyes
This was awesome! Would love to see one for Elisabeth Vigée LeBrun, the 18th century portrait painter who painted portraits of Marie Antoinette, among other European nobility of her time.
I watched a documentary that came to the conclusion that he died from trichinosis, which is a roundworm infection that comes from eating undercooked pork.
Good God the vividness! you’ve almost made me cry ❤ The minuet facial expression changed with his age and the unique light in such a genius’s eyes. But recently it is said or by studies the last picture is not a portrait of him rather a middle aged wealthy merchant.
Wow! Your re-creations are amazing! I was just thinking that Mozart doesn’t look real in any of his portraits, that he looks more like a cartoon. Your creations have brought him to life so he looks like a real person. Thank you so much.
The portrait from 03:19 is a posthumous portrait, painted almost 30 years after his death, ordered by his widow (more an idealization). The last portrait in this video is apparently still being discussed (Mozart or not Mozart?) but many are convinced it is the last genuine portrait of Mozart (amongst others, it presents the most resemblances with some other younger portraits).
It’s kind of sad that he was buried in a mass grave. And neither one of his two kids/sons who lived to adulthood had any children. I didn’t know that Constanza was a singer. This was great! Do more composers please!
Thank you for "bringing Mozart to life" on the portrait by J. Edlinger. I have long wished that this particular portrait of Wolfgang would come to life.
If only he could have lived to a ripe old age. He would have given us such wonders! Some forensic researchers believe he died of an intestinal infection brought on by tainted food purchased outside the home.
@Ivorybow: So many stories surrounding poor Wolfgang’s death...we know that he cried when he knew that he was dying (renal failure?) Then there’s the one (quite feasible) that he was poisoned: ‘The Magic Flute’ apparently ‘blew the gaff’ on Freemasonry, so he was got rid of by interested parties; It’s hard to tell if his lack of self-care resulted in his death, or if he could have gone on producing at such a rate - it’s perfectly possible to work oneself to death... A word about Constanze - she married again, as was customary, & lived to a ripe old age: she continued to promote Mozart’s music, & musicians & students would make a pilgrimage to visit her & want to ask about her life with Wolfgang, & about his creativity: Music can come & go ‘out of fashion’ - not so with Mozart....ordinary people say “isn’t this wonderful? It’s so simple!”....& musicians say “isn’t this wonderful? It’s so complex” ‘Beloved of God’ - yes indeed! 🙏🏻💔🙏🏽
A very good direction. I propose a reconstruction of portraits of a composer whom Mozart admired very much: Johann Adolf Hasse (1699-1783) - an Italian opera master, a true musical idol of the era. There are several portraits of Hasse, including a portrait by Denner. This painter painted with photographic accuracy. Hasse's wife was Faustina Bordoni - an excellent #singer, also known for her vocal competition on stage with the singer Cuzzoni. Singers such as Farinelli, Senesino, Cafarelli, Annibali - this is also a good topic for new movies
Wow that's awesome job you did it took me 38 years to finally watch Amadeus that I'm watching right now but always was interested in Mozart how purring he was in composing music
Omg it was my 1st favorite movie. I used I to say the dialogue along with the movie. And his laugh was so funny.Why did it take you so long? You should see Sophia Coppola’s movie “Marie Antoinette “. With Kirsten Dunst, it went to the Cannes festival. They filmed it at Versailles, but had to go by certain rules. The movie is beautiful……Versailles…..the fountains, costumes & shoes. Everything was immaculate. The dances…….their lives were incredible. But it was hard to watch Marie stay with her husband and not leave Versailles like everyone else did. My 2nd favorite movie is “The Last Emperor “.
This was fun! I look forward to seeing more. Henry VIII maybe? I don’t think you’ve done him yet. It would be interesting to see young Henry to old and infirm Henry. 👍🏻 Thanks again!
I feel so much for him and his work. On one hand, he's clearly either a prodigal gift from God, or a puppet of his father's, or is he a mix of both? Dead at 35. Only 2 children survived infancy. All us Americans know of him is some of his more popular (and not his best) works - and a movie from the late 80's. While it was entertaining, it did not focus on accuracy. There are passages of his, that I've had the chance to read, and then played - that break my heart. Usually, in less popular works. He wrote so deeply, and defiantly in opposition of cheap, gaudy fashions I'm so glad to have played his music. The deep, the cheap, and all the rest. How lucky are we to have a library of such a guy and his work. ❤
the wife made sure he became famous, with her new husband they did much to make mozart a family name she worked for years touring and playing piano - hiis music to pay off the debts. She was also a gifted pianist.
Oh, can you do Mozart's sister Maria Anna (Nannerl)? She was an amazing musician and probably even composer, but her life was ruined by Leopold who forced her to get married and quit music.
GAAHHHH even I know that this guy made a huge mistake on 6 year old Mozart. He included the curl of the wig into the ear which made them look abnormally huge 😫
Yea i agree on this representation of his real look. I always thought the painting were wrong and the painters usuly falow a style, like how they painted the mouse, lips, nose. They were not very good. so most of thier portraits look the same.
There's not many portraits of Mozart that are a) verified and b) were by competent artists. That's why most of his portraits vary wildly and may not be Mozart at all.

He died at 35, but honestly, he looked like a person at twice that age. His life was excruciatingly difficult.
I think it was just the wig. On another channel, they lift the wig off and place normal hair on his head, and he suddenly looks 20 years younger.
@Opherna BS its not beethoven that turned deaf in the end?
@@Steger13 Yes! Beethoven became deaf.
He does look older
White hair make people look older. And at that time, men wore wigs or had white powdered hair.
One of Mozart’s pupils, Johann Hummel described his teacher being of “small build, his face pale; his physiognomy contained much that was pleasant and friendly, with a touch of melancholic seriousness; his large blue eyes gleamed brightly.”
About the eyes no historians are leaning towards having brown eyes,I really don't know but uncertainty around eyes colour is always a big thing
Mozart had smallpox at age 11, including pustules on his eyelids which left him blind for several days. The paintings don’t show anything but his “real face” must have had the scars smallpox leaves behind.

@@meezermom1951
he was blonde
@@cottoncandykawaii2673 he actually had pink hair and a tail.
His financial struggles were due to him trying to be a kid again, spending to have fun, it’s psychological he spent his child hood working and practising, the man just wanted to have fun and doing what he loved !
Like Michael Jackson?
Don't try to excuse mid-life-crisis. There is no excuse for wanton foolishness.

He’s a digital artist, not a miracle worker.
@@brasschick4214 LOL!
That was perfect! Lol
FANTASTIC WORK! Tom Hulce was perfect casting!
Your content is soooo addictive. Love it. Please keep doing what you do!
Finally, I can put a face on the music.
Thank you.

@@linpollitt8950 me too
Wolfgang Mozart is an unusually handsome man. This person is aesthetically pleasing to look at. Alive, of course, he was even more beautiful.
Everyone knows Mozart looked like Tom Hulce.
Loved him in Amadeus
The Mozarteum have stated that he had brown eyes but a number of people ie. friends have stated he had most definedly blue eyes. Great video! I would love to see Dante since he had an amazing face.
Mozart had large blue eyes. Many biographies and historical accounts state as such.
That totally threw me off. I’ve always read they were big, dark blue eyes
I thought he was blonde with blue eyes
I think the brown eyed thing was a personal choice by the artist, most Austrians were blue eyed and there are plenty of historical accounts to back up Mozarts blue eyes
This was awesome! Would love to see one for Elisabeth Vigée LeBrun, the 18th century portrait painter who painted portraits of Marie Antoinette, among other European nobility of her time.
Wow! I love these! Mozart is always depicted so much older--I was shocked to hear he was only 35 when he died :(
I watched a documentary that came to the conclusion that he died from trichinosis, which is a roundworm infection that comes from eating undercooked pork.
really? they always said it was due to complications from being sick as a child.
Thank you, Mortal Faces! I've always admired Mozart's music. He was otherwordly indeed. Imagine being born a genius.
Good God the vividness! you’ve

The concept of your channel is brilliant! So interesting and with your facial manipulations I am captivated! Thanks!!
Very interesting and worthwhile video.
Short life, huge work.
Thank you very much for bringing our „Genius loci“ back to life. Greetings from Salzburg.
this should get WAY more views! love it
I love these animations. So interesting. Lord Byron please!
Yes please, Lord Byron.. mad, bad and dangerous to know. I've always quite fancied him so I'd like to see if he lives up to my expectations 😄
Definitely Byron. And Shelley. And maybe Mary Shelley too!
I love that you pronounced his name with a V instead of a W
I love your channel. Very good. ❤️

love what you do, it gives a real perspective to someone whom i have loved my whole life.
Same here, I’m baffled
This was super cool. Those ears!
He could probably hear notes no other human could hear - did you see those ears?! heh... explains ‘Queen of the Night’
Ty for the concise story of Mozart.
His sister Nannerl said that the portrait of him in his 20ies was the most true to life. 3:20

I would love to see Jane Austen and the Prince Regent during her time. Also Beethoven. Love these videos. Thank you.
Hey bro could you recreate the face of Hernan Cortez the Spanish Conqueror of the Aztecs
They say he didnt look like the genius he was.There were no other genius like Mozart, so what was he supposed to look like?
Wowwww great job!!, please, could you do empress Elizabeth “sisi” of austria and hungary, wife of franz joseph
This is spectacular! ...such a cute kid. The entry photo of the young piano-star is scary like a ghost stepping out of the painting.
Amazing and a video for Beethoven and Brahms, please
Add Bach to that request! 😁

Great work
Sort of proud to be born in one of the cities where Mozart has been :D
Can you do beethhoven?
Outstanding!Pls do Ludwig Van Beethoven
Thank you for your video. I would like to add that historically appropriate maps could underline and support your work and make it really authentic.
Wow I didn’t realise he died so young
This is wonderful! oh my goodness
I feel so much for him and his work.

How lucky are we to have a library of such a guy and his work.
❤
Does anyone know what became of his children, were they also gifted in music?
Why do we have to die before people finally acknowledge our work?
the wife made sure he became famous, with her new husband they did much to make mozart a family name she worked for years touring and playing piano - hiis music to pay off the debts. She was also a gifted pianist.
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!
Amazing ! RIP Mozart. The true voice of God.
Make vivaldi bach handel pls
I love Motzart and know a lot about him but I always learn something new from your videos. How about do Vlaad Dracula?!!!
horrible life he had yet the music is beyond beautiful and the best.
I would bet anything he died from Graves’ disease. The eyes. The symptoms. All of it points to it
Could you do a recreation of Ivan the Terrible of Russia?
Do Bach please!!! It's captivating your work! Thank You!
By any chance
Could you do a video on Vincent Van Gogh or Claude Monet?
Awesome
Klasse!
Oh, can you do Mozart's sister Maria Anna (Nannerl)? She was an amazing musician and probably even composer, but her life was ruined by Leopold who forced her to get married and quit music.
Did you know that Mozart wrote a song called lick me in the arse!
He was a disgusting man. His whole family was that way.
Mother : anna maria
Daughter : maria anna
🤣🤣😀
Lol
Would it be possible to do Admiral Lord Nelson, please?
The latest version (5:19) is incredibly realistic and probably the most faithful of all ... too bad it lasts so short...
GAAHHHH even I know that this guy made a huge mistake on 6 year old Mozart. He included the curl of the wig into the ear which made them look abnormally huge 😫
can you do joan of arc
I would like see Anastasia and the last Tsar family.. Plus Rasputin, sorry for the misspelling
Do Beethoven next pls
The painting in red jacket wasn't in his lifetime, it was based on other paintings and just artist guessing from those other in life paintings.
Mozart is basically the first child star, and like a lot of child stars he ended up destroying himself.
Cum se numește muzica
Could you do Floris V?
I would love to see how Beethoven looked in real life.
Pleased try Friedrich II. Of Prussia. Thank you 🎉
Mozart's IQ has been estimated from 150-155
And Beethoven's 160 to 180 I think!
Yes this is a real mozart
Empress Sissi of Austria, please!
Thank you, Could you please do the last bandit of Sicily Salvatore Giuliano1940 - 50s, there are photos and a death mask.
Yea i agree on this representation of his real look. I always thought the painting were wrong and the painters usuly falow a style, like how they painted the mouse, lips, nose. They were not very good. so most of thier portraits look the same.
You should do Beethoven.
More handsome than Mick Jagger. And don't ask about the talent.
YES YOU GO
I would like to suggest the first Mrs. Hector Berlioz a tragic actress who had a tragic life Harriet Constance Smithson
