I have so enjoyed this series! It has been one of the bright spots in the past year. AND I love the way the paintings and other art works are displayed at the Frick/Madison. I could never have imagined how different, but beautiful they look in the different setting. Congratulations to the Curators!
Very Antonio Morassi. I live in Italy and visit Venice thrice yearly. In between visits my non-working hours are dedicated to planning and studying for the upcoming trip. My life revolves around these visits to the Serenissima. Visually recording every stone, every door handle, each intriguing fissura is my passion. Grazie Signor Salomon.
Dear Mr.Salamon.I am gled to see Venice with his beautifull palaces.The artist mad hier everlasting capolavoroes to admire for centuries.I have short visited 2 times the lagunas city and enjoyed once the mascetball and remained in my memory a place never to forget but to recognise every treasure is not possible.Thanks again from Krailling /Munich/ Spending one week and able to enjoy Stanberg lake with sailing boots but not comparable with Venice regatta.Arrideverci
Greetings from Bucks County, Pennsylvania, where we thoroughly enjoyed another superlative graduate level mini-class delivered by The Frick Collection's most charismatic curator/instructor. Ciao for now!
Fabulous series 🍒 You are the top of my very exquisite museum ⚡️🪐🌸🪴☘️ So enjoy having a cocktail 🍸 with you 🌿🎋🌹🌼🌸🌺🌝 What a joy you bring to our home 🏡 Handsome, articulate, enchanting and so much more 💫✨🥂🍾 Thank you and merci beaucoup ☺️
This was a spectacular lecture. Thank you for the fascinating details about the city…bridges, buildings, ambassadors, etc. I did not know anything about Guardi, but now I want to research Venetian artists. You did, indeed, transport me to the city.
Yet another brilliant and interesting program. I knew little about Guardi beyond his name. And many congratulations on your Webby Award: very well deserved.
After visiting Frick Madison and discovering Francesco Guardi’s vivid, impressionistic images for the first time (I am used to comparing Canaletto’s detailed, precise Venitian sites, with Guardi’s freer renderings in the European Wing, in MET) it is great to learn about the background of both the painter and the subject matter. Thank you!
I remember decades ago watching a production on TV of Offenbach's opera "Tales of Hoffman" part of which is set in Venice -the part that features the 2 courtesans singing the barcarole or gondola duet.The costumes and poses of this production were all based on the paintings of Guardi and still remains in my memory as a magical thing.

I could listen to Xavier speak just in Italian for hours and still be riveted.

Magical Venice. A place to watch the regatta and one another.

Thank you - you've made Venice come alive ~
As a big fan of Canaletto learning about Guardi was very enjoyable.
Nice to have you back Xavier. I did have a sgroppino once, but on Lake Como. Delicious, if a bit strong.

Yes, I was transported to Venice. Wonderful. And was just thinking I would like the recipes for the cocktails and there they are! Buona Note
Hi from Paris. Marvelous paintings
I remember decades ago watching a production on TV of Offenbach's opera "Tales of Hoffman" part of which is set in Venice -the part that features the 2 courtesans singing the barcarole or gondola duet.The costumes and poses of this production were all based on the paintings of Guardi and still remains in my memory as a magical thing.
Thank you. I have a painting from the eighteenth century that may be an early Guardi.
Thank you so much I really enjoyed it.
Thank you. 🇨🇦
Wonderful, yes it did transport....thank you!
Hello from Mahwah, N J.!
Had a sgroppino once on Lake Como though. Delicious but a bit strong.
It looks like a lense was used.
