- Auctions have become commonplace and we can buy and sell from our phones but for more discerning clients and objects a proper auction house is required. At Hindman Auctions they can employ their team of researches handlers, photographers and expertise within the world of art, antiquities, collectibles, and more to help buyers and seller find the right object and relationship.
In this episode we see how a painting goes from being damaged to setting historic record prices at auction all with the help of Hindman Auctions.

I could have sworn "It's a lot more difficult than uploading a photo to a website" and that subsequent chuckle was going to lead us straight in to a Squarespace Ad 😂
That's probably why he chuckled. He knew we'd clock it
We've been conditioned, haven't we 😊
😂😂😂
Lucky me for never seeing the squarespace ad 😄
Oh my gosh, I was waiting for it too when he said that!
Watching Julian's jaw dropping as the price kept going up on the painting he repaired...😂
I hope he gets a small share of the extra 100,000 dollars on top of the expected price. After all, his work could only have contributed to it!
@@nilsp9426yeah he got the amount they paid him for conserving it.
Julian’s conservation cost just skyrocketed.
@@nilsp9426that wouldn't be fair at all. Julien has a certain price for the work he does at it doesn't matter if the painting is by an unknown amateur artist or Picasso. And he's very professional about it
@@alisav8394 So you think the auction margin should go 100% to Hindman and its investors, and not to other people that work on the piece?
The Dad Joke game is impeccable. "The task of auctioning these Greek antiquities must be Herculean". 🤭
This series is just incredible, such a treat to see behind the scenes like this, thank you Julian!
Hi Florian!👋 fancy seeing you here
Julian just casually walking in the auction room and naming all the creators of the paintings. Thats some amazing skill
great to see Loki doing side jobs 😁 nice video!
This was the comment worth scrolling for 👀😄
Hahah nice one! I knew he looked familiar
My dyslexic self read the thumbnail as “stealing artwork” and I thought this was going to be a VERY different video 😂
I've worked at auction houses and I don't think people understand how much work goes into each lot. This is great.
yes
The fact that a major auction house would allow a youtuber into their building, give a personal guided tour and even invite them to the auction shows how highly regarded Julien is in his community. I am so proud of our boy!
Well Julian isn't just a youtuber. He has access to his suppliers and clients as a fine art conservator. He is well known.
Julian is a man you don’t wanna mess with. He knows a hundred thousand different ways to end an artwork. He’s _dangerous._
He was an art conservator before starting youtube. He's likely done business with this company for years prior.
Uhhh... hes not simply a "youtuber." He is arguably one of the best conservators alive today
I was very skeptical of this series because I didn't want to miss the usual videos, but this is turning out to be great :D Never had as much appreciation for the whole "selling art businesses" as I do now. I just didn't know that they do so much more than just think up prices for paintings!
Well, the usual videos aren’t going anywhere; a new one’s coming Monday.
I like how the importance of provenance was stressed. A respected auction house not only provides confidence that a piece is what it is claimed to be, but also that it was acquired in a honest and ethical manner.
"I'll need it by September 27!" Julian checks watch LOL
Most decent watches come with date and often even month, exclusive mechanical watches have ridiculous things like showing the moon phase.
"Is it just gonna be the tear you repaired" I was so offended... Have you not seen this man at work!? LOLOLL
😂😂😂
And because of the publicity created from Julian's documentary-worthy video and the 100's of thousands of eyes that will see this painting that never would have otherwise, the provenance has been added to and I would think the painting's value has increased even further.
14:33 that guys face when Julian mentioned the nitty gritty. “Ahh a connoisseur; rare someone actually wants to know details. I like this guy.”
How does it feel to have a painting you worked on sell for almost $200k! That’s got to be amazing
he would’ve charged them more if he knew that!! 😂😂
THIS IS A GREAT SERIES!! seeing how you work outside your studio
yes big series
I am so happy to see how much growth this channel has gotten over the years! I used to watch your few minute clips way back in the day and I was always so mesmerized. You have truly made me fall in love with the arts again and I will forever be grateful to you. Keep being creative!
Your story-telling skills and production quality are top notch. This series is a great way to expand your content.
thank you 😊
My first job out of College was as an assistant preparator for the Prix De West Auction at the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum and preparing artwork for a major auction is NO JOKE! It's a totally different and unique animal.
All of the paintings and sculptures I worked with were contemporary and made within the last 10 years, so we didn't do any conservation work on them but It was very nerve wracking as a 21 year old to be handling paintings with $100,000 retail price tags, that end up selling for twice that at auction.
It's a shame this series isn't getting as many views as your usual videos because these are absolutely excellent videos!! The production, editing, and content really makes this feel like a top tier documentary series.
This series should be on a streaming service, or public TV . High quality production and infotainment!
Pretty awesome series Julian!
The artist is Lê Phổ , and the painting is 'La Lettre' in case anyone wanted to know. Not sure what proper the Vietnamese pronunciation would be but I feel like it's not 'Luh Foe'.
Thanks for clarify it!! Love it :3
Oh, thanks, I was sure it would not be the sort of French (vaguely) sounding unidentifiable thing it sounded like. Nice to know with accuracy.
Thanks, I was looking for this comment.
That was so totally AMAZING!!!! I have loved watching you restore and conserve paintings for a few years now and have gone all the way back to view each one. Now with this series I have the chance of learning even more about just how much care goes into a piece no matter where it is in the process. People care...it's wonderful to see.
Thank you! Your feedback means a lot to me. Restoring and preserving images is a great passion of mine. It makes me really happy to know that you are following this process. My care and love for the artworks creates a bond, as you can feel. Each piece has a special meaning for me and I am really pleased to share these feelings with you. It is very valuable for me that art lovers like you follow this series and share this experience. Your comments motivate me and increase my determination to create more beautiful works. Nevertheless, I always welcome your feedback so that we can continuously improve.
After I found this channel I did the same! I went back and watched them ALL! I'm now really enjoying this new series!!! 👍❤
Two episodes in, and I'm already hooked on your new Behind the Canvas series. Lovin' it.
These intros are awesome. Feels like I'm watching a show on PBS. I love it.
That Le Pho painting is beautiful. I also got invested because of not only the conservation process but because I’m American-Vietnamese with French imperialism heritage. Seeing that meld of Impressionism with traditional Vietnamese figures and values was a delight, alongside it being a beautiful painting in of itself.
In addition, there’s always that lingering feeling when your video ends and that painting we’ve spent watching you conserve, where we know as an audience it’ll go back to its client. That sense of longing and attachment. This thoroughly satisfied that feeling of seeing where it goes after!
It's crazy to have such a unique and well-produced series online for free. What a gift. Thank you very much for your hard work
6:43 Btw, who cut this fine gentleman's tie? Lost the tip ^^'
lmao, that knight in the back looks so done with life
Just terrific Julian. I love your regular videos and live for when that final varnish goes down and we see all the restored color and beauty ... but this is a whole new level. fascinating stuff
That woman statue in the old auction room was lovely i love her
When Julian starts painting his own art we might get a chance at his first few before he gets famous!
Lol pre-archival ready art that would be easily restored years for now would be brilliant.
Thank you Julian! This is like, a master level documentary I’d expect to see like, on PBS. It’s so cool to see how your work can help make these paintings so much more valuable and to see the work that goes into sending it out into the world is really inspiring.
The quality of production is amazing. Julian is so confident and so good at interviewing. It's so much pleasure to watch professionals doing their job.
I’ve held a paddle at a few auction (GBP hundred to low thousands) and the thrill of knowing the piece I’m keen to buy is approaching is huge. I watched the etiquette at the first auction to see how each lot was auctioned and was ready to raise my paddle when the time came. Then battle commenced. Me v typically one or two others in the room. I would sit towards the back and could see who else was bidding. They would turn around to find me, calm outside heart racing inside. The thrill of anticipation is nothing to having the winning bid.
Buy the art you love. Worry about available wall space later.
Great addition to the series. Auction employees were particularly well-spoken, personable and informed. Glad to see even in a series not about conservation Julian still finds a way work it into the video.
Its obvious that the inclusion of Baumgartner Restorations is a plus to a painting at auction.
The first two episodes have been very enlightening AND entertaining! Thanks.
10:36 This knight armor one. Look like down and watch "wall" IS mood
honestly i rarely comment, but id just like to say this new series is really awesome. as someone who loves art but doesnt necessarily want to make art for a living id love this sort of line of work youve showcased. its really inspiring!
I am so happy that you have taken us out and about, it is very exciting. All the best to the new owner.
The Love of Art is The Start.
Like so many others, I am loving this series. It is absolutely fascinating to see the other parts of the fine art world through Julian's eyes.
You have a ton of potential man. Like oldschool style of history channel mixed with a movie. Please keep this going
That painting is so warm and pleasant to look at!
I already love this new video series. It is so appreciative of all that is going on around the artworks that pass through the studio. It is like a window to a whole new world for someone who never went beyond a small mandatory arts class in college (German "Gymnasium").
This series is lifting the veil. GREAT job!
Been watching this channel since 2019 love the new series
Love this new series. I have always had an "obsession" for art and yet not the pocket book to match. So to see this process from the backstage point of view is fascinating. Thanks for all your efforts to put this together. I'll bet you didn't realize your art restoration would lead you to becoming a film documentary director as well. Happy for you.....and us.
Great Video. I used to enjoy watching Leslie Hindman's "At the Auction" tv show, so it was great fun to see them in one of your videos. This is an enjoyable series that you are creating.
I thought they were terrible. The woman kept trying to insert herself into the conversation at the wrong time, and both of them had the sense of humor of a rock. Especially the man. He has a stick so far up his ass.
As a history nerd, you could lock me into that antiquities room for days on end 😍 I'm in love with this series!
If I could give you a million thumbs up, I would. Thank you for sharing this experience, as I'm pretty sure I never would have seen this otherwise. I love the art world, but realize I only see a small fraction of what it is. Even though these people don't paint the master pieces, they certainly do their part to make them shine, as do you. Again, thank you so much for sharing a part of your world.
Thank you, Julian, for this amazing series!
This was a great program. Thank you for taking us with you and thank you to the Hindman auctions.
It has such a pretty frame- and now we know how they're made!
Joe reminds me so much of tom hiddleston, loki specifically, i kept thinking it the whole time! 🤭 i also enjoyed the rest of the video, but Joe was great!
What a phenomenal episode. Holy crap.
You would never see something like this on TV.
Sorry to disappoint I just watched this on TH-cam on my TV so guess you are wrong , just saying 😅
Great Series!. Thank you.
I really love this series even though it’s only two episodes in it so far! The production quality already? Brilliant!
Absolutely fascinating, to see the process, from your work through to someone buying a painting that they want to buy. Thank you for showing this side of things to us.
Great story!
Thanks for sharing.
Wish I could like twice. Love seeing the other side of all this.
That was fascinating, thank you so much for taking me where I would never go otherwise.
Loving this new series!
Please give my thanks to Hindman for allowing you to film this. I wish I could have seen this in high school or even middle school. My life would be different today. Many blessings to you sir. Again thanks for all the education.
This was amazing. I wasn't sure I would be able to enjoy content that wasn't the restoration process. I really loved this.
Really enjoying this new series
Loving this "Behind the Canvas" series.
This series is just fascinating!!!
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️
These are really cool series! Nicely produced too! My Mondays got way more interesting now :)
Wow, what an interesting new series you created, I really enjoyed watching this and other videos. Thank you for showing us a bit of behind the curtains and as a host you are amazing.
This series is wonderful - thank your for adding this to your busy video schedule!
How wonderful to see the synergy of BFAR and Hindmand.
This was so interesting, really enjoyed the tour of the auction house.
Amazing job as usual. This was an emergency repair. Knowing Baumgartner’s ability to repair a damaged painting, while the letter of repair is nice, I would be happy seeing his business card tucked in with the paperwork of the sale. That tells me the artwork had an issue and was repaired by the best restorer of fine art that I am aware of. Not that there aren’t others who are just as capable, It’s just that I know the quality of Julian’s work, and it is stellar.
Julian you did an amazing job with this minnie documentary series they are truely interesting . ❤ Amazing job
Loving this series!
There's something about watching a master of their craft at work that is just awe-inspiring. Thank you for the inside look Joe!
Cant believe just how expensive artwork can be, amazing work!
Love this series!! I look forward to every one!
Amazing…thanks so much, Julian, for a wonderful glimpse into the world of auction house! You have taught me so much!
Absolutely brilliant, loved this episode, so great to see behind the scenes. The quality of the documentary is incredible.
I am really enjoying this series, thank you!
Wow! Thank you Julian. To see the end result of your hard work was transformative to say the least. Very cool video! 😊
Saya juga telah melakukan konservasi dan testorasi ratusan lukisan2 old master Asia,khususnya Indonesia dgn peralatan minim dan sederhana...
tetapi dari seluruh vidio Restorator...studio dan penampilan Julian dlm pekerjaannya lah yg paling Sy suka...
salam dari Sy (Muhardi)
Indonesia❤
That was great! I was so satisfied seeing that work go for so much, I can only imagine how satisfying it was for you! I know that if I saw a piece restored by you, it would instantly be more valuable to me!
This was fantastic! I would much rather watch any video you post than what is on the streaming services or tv. Thank you so much for sharing these behind the scenes looks with us.
thank you for this series. Enjoying it a lot
I think that was the most exciting auction I've ever seen, mostly because of learning about art via the content on this channel
That was fascinating…so much more work is done by the auction house than I ever realised!
Thank you for shedding light on other parts of the art world. It is facinating!
Bridging! When I saw the tear, I thought-“Looks like that tear needs bridging!” There are crowds of us out here who would gladly join you in explaining bridging to the auction house.
Oh they absolutely already know about it. This was just explained for camera/audience benefit.
Who else thought we would see the video of the painting he restored? 😅 Love the series!
That was so interesting. Thank you
not even ashamed that the auction reaction cuts were my favourite bit
Excellent and thought-provoking!!
I really enjoy the behind the scenes videos. Thank you
I've been subscribed to this channel for years and I just realized TH-cam had unsubscribed me. I was wondering why I hadn't seen any new videos, that's why I checked. Even after re-subscribing these new videos aren't showing up on my front page recommendations.
I love this series. Thanks for getting us behind the curtain
Great videography, like in an oil painting, the action has several very captivating and interesting layers.
Wow watching the live auction was my favorite part of the video! How magical!
