(at the beginning after the anatomy lesson).

It actually makes me wish I’d bought the art history book when I was in school instead of just taking very detailed notes about the artworks.

This video makes me happy. Maybe it will inspire people to look up art history to see what they’re missing out on đŸ™‚

For most of us, I’d expect nearly all are instantly recognizable. Alas, how many people aged 20 or younger would know any of these works, since art history has essentially gone away from the standard curriculum in public education…

That only leaves the one with the metallic halos, very icon-like, and verification of some of the others. I love the Fontainebleu painting. They restaged it really well too.

The one with the nipple pinch is by an unknown artist from the Fontainebleau school of France, late 16th century. Love that painting. It’s believed to be a portrait of one of Francois Ier’s lovers, Gabrielle d’EstrĂ©es, and her sister. I’ve seen it at the Louvre. The other one, towards the end, is “Las Meninas” by Velazquez.
