We just saw this in person over the weekend, and it was glorious, especially after having studied some of Tintoretto through your videos. There is something striking and extremely moving about Tintoretto's artwork that is best seen in person (especially in this Palladio church), but these videos sure make you feel like you're there. What wonderful videos. Thank you so much.
I really enjoyed the enthusiastic, informed dialog and the contrasting voices of the narrators. I added this video to PLAYLIST: Art about the Last Supper of Jesus on the blessings427 channel today.
Great follow-up for yesterday's purposes. It says "sactuary" in the initial scene... 😅 This is an amazing interpretation of the last supper, though... Strange person I am, I'm obsessed with the lantern, lol. It's light and smoke are so unique. The way it creates (or reveals?) the whispy angels is unlike anything I've seen. I also appreciate the way this brings us into the moment. I'm used to thinking of major biblical moments as a matter of fact, glossing over specific details. This makes me want to hear all that was said, understand how everyone was feeling, partake in the meal, etc. I hope there's more Tintoretto to come. 😄
I love Tintoretto's light (and darkness) and that lamp is wild. His work somehow dissolves the distinction between the physical and the spiritual and making each immediate and interrelated. There is indeed more Tintoretto.
@@smarthistory-art-history "That lamp is wild" made me laugh. It really is, though. I'm so intrigued by his convergence of spiritual and physical - I'll definitely be looking out for him.
I like Tintoretto's art, but this seems exceptionally ill-suited to the church where it's located. It was rather vain and in poor taste to do this. Imagine how complimentary a vibrant Venetian artwork would be in this space compared to Tintoretto's heavy, black painting which looks like a mismatched afterthought.
Actually there is one on the other side of the table, and he's probably Judas, as he is the only one without halo (Christ apart, one can count 11 haloes). I guess this signals that Judas already was "on the other side" and he felt not any more really part of the group.

Benchmark presentation of an extraordinary work. Thank you !
We always compare all last supper paintings with Leonardo's one as the ultimate truth.
What a vivid and wonderful explanation.. Renaissance cultural art is so glorious.. Thanks a lot..!! Greetings from Indonesia 🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🇮🇩🇮🇩
I had never seen Tintoretto's _Last Supper_ before! It's so much more dynamic than da Vinci's, which was already full of movement and emotion.
Brilliant video! Thank you
Such a compelling painting and critique. Thank you. Would love to hear your thoughts on the Artist's self portrait, also very dramatic.

Doubt and darkness have no role to play in a cult, in a faith, it is essential.
@@araucariapasquale1 I agree. "Bittersweet," could never do justice to the melancholy to come.
Sublime as always

2:56am i have a test tom THANK U
Beautiful,thank you
I wonder why Tintoretto chose to place all the disciples on one end of the long table, like da Vinci.
aprilshowers They all sat on the same side of the table facing the Temple. Hence in the traditional Mass all face the same direction.
Actually there is one on the other side of the table, and he's probably Judas, as he is the only one without halo (Christ apart, one can count 11 haloes). I guess this signals that Judas already was "on the other side" and he felt not any more really part of the group.
Wasn’t the Virgin Mary in the painting Christ’s MOTHER. Yet you didn’t mention Her?
Thank you - somehow I am reminded of El Greco ~
