- Waldemar explains why The Card Players by Paul Cézanne is one of the most cryptic examples of Cézanne's ambition to combine classic religious art with modernity, and how the cult of Mary Magdalene in French Provence influenced Cézanne.

Waldemar is a tour de force, a one man show, a light in the dank and dreary dungeon that could be described as the world of art. One of the few meaningful channels on YT with some intellect and substance. A rare find in such a narcissistic medium as TH-cam/ MeTube. Thank you Waldemar you've taken me places I've only aspired to travel or often dreamt about of visiting & embracing. I hope someday you can present your interpretations of our culturally rich and complex indigenous art throughout the ages in the Americas.
Waldemar is an amazing art storyteller. He makes me want to learn more. His love for art comes through in every word. He is, as his subjects, an artist himself.
So much respect for Waldemar. Thank you
Waldemar you are the very best !! Thank you. I'm in Chicago and visited the summer 2022 Cézanne Show at A.I many times. Pure Pleasure
Christmas with Valdemar🎄Last thing I watched last night. Always love this guy and what he has to say. ❤️
Imagine.. him being your friend. You walk around visiting galleries, and he educates and informs you along the way.. Oh wait, he is my friend. Right here on TH-cam ☺️☺️☺️ I take your hand and travel along..
Bit of a walk up those steps to the cave, I bet he felt it. Great video 👍👍👍
Thank the art world for Waldemar Janusczak as I've never had the life to go to an art gallery and I'm not saying opportunity will never come but my health and mobility isn't so good now. Waldemar has brought art to me and explained the art/artist to me in such a cool way, I get it. Keep doing what you do as they'll be more of us outthere. ☃️👍🖼️🎨👨🎨
You can see a lot of virtual tours and exhibits in different museums all around the world. You can also go to Google maps street view and see holistoric cities all over the world. You don't have to go outside to see the art
A new video by Waldemar Januszczak! Instant click, play and enjoy. Love this channel.
I love this show! Even though I agree with some others that it is not two “old boys” - it is an older man and a young man. And the older man is not an “old man”, feeble and dependent - he is a middle-aged man, at the height of his power. I love the equation card game = life. The interplay of skill and experience with luck and creativity. What is the role of the divine in this? I have always loved Cezanne, but really knew nothing of his roots. I can really see how his sensibilities were formed by the stonework of the cathedral, the landscape, and the religion he grew up with. Some art history reduces the work to a jaded kind of analysis. Whether or not you agree with all of Waldemar’s interpretations, this video does the opposite - it illuminates the artist and his work. It is educational and a great piece of theater. Bravo, Waldemar!
I think that the research on Cezanne and his turn toward religion in his later years flows with observed psychology of many people. It is interesting that all the other books and videos neglected the "hidden" religiousity (especially Catholicism) of Cezanne is there. Never read or heard the vaulted arches in the bathers, but now it seems to obvious and more beautiful and depth. The Card Players as the Road to Emmaus gives me hope and a sense of Easter liberation in the modern world.

Wonderful - so much production value in five minutes with you - you're looking GREAT!
Waldemar´s documentaries teach me a lot and help me watch art in detail
"Welcome to the modern world." Oh Waldo, you hit the nail on the head with that one.
Always great, thanks!
informative, interesting, entertaining, and well made video!
We love you Waldy!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you Waldemar.😊
Thanks!
I have often thought that medieval carving might have influenced Cezanne. The slabs of colour and his construction of space and solid structure. Linking him to cubism through Picasso. I wonder, are the box shaped houses in the Pyrenees and the aboriginal sculpture Picasso saw in the Palau’s du Trocadero the other two influences that make up the trinity of cubism and modernism.
I see what you mean! Buut could Cezanne have painted Guernica, ever? I can't get that far.
Did enjoy this story! Have seen Cezanne in London. Wonderful!
Excellent
Now that I've watched this, I know a lot more about Cezanne than when I started, but I still think it's a bit of a leap to say that this is objectively what the paintings are about.
If I need to feel OK about the world, Waldemar is someone I can turn to. Thanks, Waldemar.
Waldemar Janusckzak is a great storyteller ❤
Everytime better !!! Thank you !!!
It is great art that generates so many different interpretations.
Thanks, Waldo. I enjoy your vids about, "paintingks" and "drawingks" and "FIG-uhs" and "AWW_tists." Very edifying indeed.
This was a lovely journey. Thank you, Waldemar. I do want to add, though, that the "banal" card players underscore to us that Cezanne was born into a luxurious existence, not needing to work at anything else, with a household and grounds staff to meet his every need (including serving as models) and a generous budget for paint and canvas, unlike poor Gauguin, who had none of that, and who died penniless. The card players were real people, people who worked hard and enjoyed their small bits of leisure, although in Waldemar's interpretation, they are reduced to illustrative, perhaps religious props, for a wealthy painter. Bottom line, though: I do love Waldemar's refreshing commentary!
Nowhere in the NT does it say explicitly what Mary Magdelene's "sin" was, nor that she was necessarily a prostitute. Great series, this with Waldemar Januszczak, and we give thanks for it.
I am not convinced by your argument!
Thanks Waldemsr, you’re always compelling but I’m not convinced by the way you connect the themes, interesting as they are. I wonder what Cézanne would have thought of this video?
I@angusmcmillan8981 think Cezanne would have liked it and said, "Finally, someone who sees me not as a nihilistic wastrel bohemian (akin to Gaugin), but a modern seeker in the ancient spirituality that has yet a lot to say to the modern world and sensibility."

Courtauld Institute of Art - One of the best gallery collection of Paul Cézanne's artwork in London England
Paul Cézanne (19 January 1839 - 22 October 1906) was a French artist and Post-Impressionist painter whose work laid the foundations of the transition from the 19th-century conception of artistic endeavour to a new and radically different world of art in the 20th century. Cézanne is said to have formed the bridge between late 19th-century Impressionism and the early 20th century's new line of artistic enquiry, Cubism.
Born: Aix-en-Provence, France
Why paint a card game?

Interesting to call out the myths of her intimate relationship with JC as non-biblical but perpetuate the less flattering but no less non-biblical myth. Called her a 'prostitute one too many times. Couldn't get through it.
What is the song that starts playing in 3:24? I would really love to know, I have been trying to find the answer for couple of years already, ever since they showed this on TV here in Finland.
Another interpretation: It is a painting of an old man and a younger man, (not "two old boys")a father son relationship, a possible reflection of his own relationship with his father. Notice the different size hats and the more 'senior' is smoking a pipe - superiority vs inferiority. I suggest that The 'older' and the 'younger' men also reflect the inner turmoil of Cezanne between his younger self and his now older self. The 'older' man does not have much light on his face compared to the brightness and beauty on the face of the 'young' man. You either win or lose at the game of life - in Cezanne's case it is the 'Old Man' who will win because it is he who will die. While it was a 'younger' man who died (murdered) on the Cross. Theologically, God the Father and God the Son are the real players of human life.The shadowy figure (a milo de venus shadowdy look alike) in the painting behind them is the Holy Ghost who is passively (armless) overlooking the card game between the 'Father' and the 'Son', ultimately the game of life. Yes Cezanne became 'dark' in his later years because he lived by the theology and canonicals of a dark and frightening religion. I suspect that Cezanne was fearful that his final 'redemption' would be determined by a game of chance. The influence of this most dark of religions and the concurrent fear it generates in its followers is also depicted in Cezanne's very dark painting of Mary Magdalene who supposedly lived her final days determined by a patriarchal dark religion where being a man is far more powerful and important than being a woman. And this holds true today in the theology and canonicals of that still dark religion.

Very good documentary.
Hey People do you think that Cezanne really used Gothic arch from the front of cathedral for the position of threes in his bathers and the position for his card players, or is it just a Waldenars interpretation? 😊
Nee het duidelijkst is dat ene kerkje met die gestippelde olifant en Jesus in het geel ,op het borduurwerk heb ik die olifant met stippen op die olifant zitten twee figuurtjes en een op een Ezel dus drie in totaal en die poppetjes hebben ook een soort van een Fes op eigelijk een heel bijzonder borduurwerk en boven op de slaapkamer een groot borduurwerk voorstellend het paradijs ,dus hoe vreemd wil je het hebben je moet het gezien hebben daarom toeval bestaat niet ,ik heb het gewoon zoiets gekocht zonder bij stil te staan dat het een soort puzzel is die straks compleet is net zoogde een werk van iemand die een figuur uitbeeld een mooie vrouw die de liefde dans uitvoert voor Krishna die heb ik gewoon gekocht ook jaren terug omdat het in zwart/ wit was uitgevoerd dat vond ik mooi hangt alweer jaren aan de muur waarvan er 15 van gemaakt is en dit de derde versie ervan steeds als ik opkijk op de klok steeds heel vaak drieën zie verschijnen, zoals 333 of 331 / 31 / 53/ 3 ga zo maar door nee is geen toeval maar hoe werkt nou zoiets dit verbeeld je,jezelf toch niet deze cijfers of zoals het viooltje en zijn betekenis ( doodmoe wordt ik ervan )
I wonder if Picasso's Sleeper by the Shutters is based on Cezanne's Mary Magdalene.
Isn't it the case that card games and card playing emerged first in Provence in the late Middle Ages? And I think it was Tarot cards (as shown in this wonderful video). Weren't they (Tarot cards) associated with the legend of the Holy Grail? And isn't this legend associated with Mary Magdalene who, according to some narratives, took the chalice with Christ's blood and sailed (with Joseph of Arimatheia) to Provence? Pure guesswok on my part, I know. Would Cezanne have anything to do with it? Anyway, here is one of my favorite paintings of his.
Are you sure you may bring Mary Magdalene into this?
Wie betrekt haar in deze ik niet en heb ook niet anders beweerd alles heeft betrekking op mij zelf en niet van Magdalena’s,ik weet nog wel wie ik ben

The Card Players would now be sitting staring at their Smartphones.
Well Cezanne is too dark for me. Poor dude was unhappy. Lighten up Paul but I love the tour of Aix wow very cool.
10:12 The original stove was not there. 17:26 No, he did not sit there, it was near a pillar behind that area.
Weird, I thought Cezanne's "Card Players" was sold just a couple of years ago in an auction for a ridiculous price...
It was. To the Qatar family. Cuz the whole world is their gameboard, don't'cha know...

Оригинальная идея - играть колодой Таро,
I’m of more than two minds regarding all the comments that Mary Magdalene was not a prostitute. On the one hand, what people in that time and place believed was that she was a prostitute. This is context in which Cezanne was working. Despite believing that she was a prostitute, the people there revered her. She is the patron saint of Provence. Jesus accepted her into his inner circle - this was radical just because she was a woman. Jesus set an example of compassion, kindness and love for everyone, even if their role in society was lowly and despised. Mary Magdalene symbolizes this attitude. She represents sorrow, devotion, faithfulness, endurance, love. If she was a prostitute, well, she was just trying to get by. If she wasn’t a prostitute, she was lucky. Either way, Jesus accepted her - he loved and respected her as an equal to men. If she is the patron saint of Provence, if this is their ideal - Wow.
Waldemar! Meow.
I enjoyed this the 1st time. Recycling seems a little misrepresentative.
👍👍👍
Lezen 1Corinthiers 3:10-15 ( een smeltkroes )
I would guess that is his son playing cards with him at the end.🃏
I wonder if painting of the Mary Magdalene in the cave who looks like a man, which was painted when Cezanne was young, was a kind of self-portrait? His paintings became lighter as he got older, Waldemar said.
Just imagine of the thousands of paintings by famous artists hanging in the homes of so called royalty, aristocrats and very wealthy people never to seen by the public. It is ironic that these same artists were usuallly destitute. The ones we see in galleries are said to be stolen. Thank God for the thieves. The ones hanging in the homes of the rich were acquired by money from exploited peasants etc. How do you define theft?
Magdalene was not a prostitute.She taught the apostles too as she was very close to Jesus. St Peter was not pleased. In 2022 brilliant women are still trashed.
All the symbolism. All the interpretation. Maybe the guy just wanted to paint some guys playing cards...
Next time lose the ugly music
Maybe the experts are reading way too much to these paintings.
I want to know if Waldemar was playing cards with his own son. If that was his son, is the lad a budding art critic as well?
Thank you for a great story behind Matisse's art. However, I dare say, you go a little bit to far with your interpratation. The card players seem to me an unpretentious, stylish genre scene.
The "Jews" did not put Mary to sea. This is just another slander of the Jews by the French which slander should be identified for what it is.
I took it as Waldemar describing the French lore, but that could have been made more explicit. This could be taken by people as justification for persecution of Jews.

Ja wat ik weet van geld uit lenen in de Joodse mogen zij geen rente vragen maar dat gebeurt wel en zelfs met te veel rente die mensen eigelijk niet terug kunnen betalen en alles kunnen verliezen) maar dan even terugkomend op Jakob die zijn schoonvader jaren van werken zijn Vrouw moest afbetalen is ook een vorm van slavenhandel als ik mij niet vergis is het iets van twintig jaar maar hij plante er een boom voor om aan te geven dat door hem gefokte schapen van hem waren ( wat zegt dit alles ) trouwens zonder te weten waarvoor de Tamarisk eigelijk aan betekenis had heb ik ook een Tamariks geplant vond een mooie boom die mijn zus al had en van haar kreeg ik een jonge Tamariskboom op mijn verjaardag ( bijzonder vind je niet ? )😊
Waldemar=how to explain art without pedantic onanism
The religious art thesis is an interesting one. Possibly this deeper level of cause might be much more fundamental than is generally discussed in art. And consequently as moderns we're subject to a multitude of belief systems which articulate in our art the deep inner chaos of our time. The Tarot Card BTW is kind of an insult to Cezanne's faith if indeed a formative mechanism for his work. Cards are cards? You're brilliant and I like most of your docs, but you make mistakes too.
Ja ik heb ook een asbak de enigste die over is het was een serie die kaarten moest voorstellen en ik heb de harten koningin van porselein vrouw met een kroontje op haar hoofd toeval ? Heb zelfs een boot van Monet en ook zijn voorstelling van waterlelies toeval ? Zo kan ik eindeloos doorgaan of een oude bijbel gekregen van een overleden vrouw die haar zoon gaf het aan mij ,ik had haar gezien op mijn slaapkamer 16.30 ook jaren terug maar je staat er niet bij stil in die bijbel heeft zij veel aangestreept en is in oud Hollands ,nou voor mij is alles duidelijk IK GELOOF
Not really. Tarot cards were originally used as playing cards, and if I remember correctly, recorded as early as the 15th century in Italy and France. The present playing card deck is comprised as the same as the Minor Arcana in a Tarot deck. There are modern games played with the Tarot form today. So, the modern designs are the product of the Western occult tradition, but the most traditional Tarot deck most in use is the Swiss 1JJ deck, whose Major Trumps are a mixture of classical Roman, and Christian, and Folk imagery. But there are even older Italian decks. Whether Cezanne was even interested in Tarot or the game Tarocchi is unknown, but games with Tarot cards are still played today in France and Italy. And even if he was, we should not assume he was interested in the occult.
Just a tad gloomy, that's ok.
I don't understand Cezanne or why he is considered a master. His palette is dull and ugly. I don't see any beauty in any of it. Is it simply because he was trying something new, like so much modern art? I also don't see religion in a painting of two card players. I just don't get it.
BLASPHEMY! PEOPLE WHO THINK THAT MARY WAS MORE THEN A WOMAN WHO WAS HEALED BY JESUS AND KEPT HERSELF CLEAN OF THOSE SINS NEED TO START READING THE BIBLE. IT'S VERY CLEAR THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY ARE SAYING...HORRIBLE...

Mary Madeline was never a prostitute, an edit, as *"admitted by the Catholic Church".*
(that was another forcing of patriarch).
There's are various methods of researching the history of Yeshua/Jesus and Mary Magdalene.
But in the era of reference for Cezanne, they would have thought that to be so.
Evening imagining the level of influence that transpired, the edits to the History and subsequently for the Religion to support Constatine and his 4th Century vision, desires, to establish a "particular Patriarchal control in in the society and culture", *"Control being the 🗝️"*
It would take time, studies, research, and a particular Conscious in Thought Mind, to gain the greater truths. Be that as it may, now is the important element and being Free of "Prescribed Ideas of how One and Society, the Public Collective are to think, believe, and live".
Freedom only exists when our Mind, Thoughts, and Perspectives are our Own.
