00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,295
Hi! This is View from Point of View channel!

2
00:00:02,295 --> 00:00:04,905
Now I'm at National Gallery Museum in England

3
00:00:04,905 --> 00:00:05,405


4
00:00:05,405 --> 00:00:08,735
There's so many paintings by famous artists here

5
00:00:09,305 --> 00:00:12,305
Like van Gogh, Picasso, da Vinci,

6
00:00:12,305 --> 00:00:14,965
or Monet

7
00:00:14,965 --> 00:00:17,845
So I'll take you around to see the paintings today

8
00:00:17,845 --> 00:00:20,745
Imagine you're my travel buddy then!

9
00:00:20,745 --> 00:00:23,475

so you'll know whenever there's a new video

13
00:00:32,505 --> 00:00:33,635
OK, let's go.

14
00:01:42,385 --> 00:01:45,085
Finally, after going through the gallery

15
00:01:45,085 --> 00:01:48,075
and seeing so many famous artists

16
00:01:48,075 --> 00:01:50,995
we are now in front of an original van Gogh!

17
00:01:50,995 --> 00:01:51,995
Let's go see.

18
00:01:52,665 --> 00:01:55,755
Vincent van Gogh. Gosh, so hard to pronounce!

19
00:01:55,755 --> 00:01:58,805
known by Thais as van Gogh, is a Dutch post-impressionist painter.

20
00:01:58,825 --> 00:02:01,805
He led a very sad life.

21
00:02:01,805 --> 00:02:04,965
When he reached the age of 17-18,

22
00:02:05,215 --> 00:02:08,305
he went to intern at a gallery

23
00:02:08,305 --> 00:02:10,625
that sold paintings.

24
00:02:11,185 --> 00:02:14,025
After interning in his hometown,

25
00:02:14,025 --> 00:02:15,665
he was sent to Paris

26
00:02:16,015 --> 00:02:18,865
which you might know that Paris was the

27
00:02:18,865 --> 00:02:19,865


28
00:02:20,045 --> 00:02:23,235
capital of art.

29
00:02:23,235 --> 00:02:24,925
He thought he was going to succeed in life,

30
00:02:25,715 --> 00:02:28,745
but no. Because he was a sincere person;

31
00:02:28,745 --> 00:02:31,345
didn't like lying or taking advantage

32
00:02:31,345 --> 00:02:34,745
he didn't succeed in selling pictures.

33
00:02:34,915 --> 00:02:37,985
The gallery he was working at liked to take

34
00:02:37,985 --> 00:02:39,265
low quality paintings and

35
00:02:40,105 --> 00:02:43,275
tell people that "This is a masterpiece!"

36
00:02:43,275 --> 00:02:46,245
Therefore, the price is very high.

37
00:02:46,245 --> 00:02:49,555
van Gogh would then whisper the truth

38
00:02:49,665 --> 00:02:52,715
to customers.

39
00:02:52,715 --> 00:02:54,215
The owner then found out

40
00:02:54,785 --> 00:02:56,225
and fired van Gogh.

41
00:02:56,825 --> 00:02:59,745
That was his first episode of the unfortunate series,

42
00:02:59,745 --> 00:03:02,455
so he thought he wasn't good in business

43
00:03:02,675 --> 00:03:04,425
and turned to religion.

44
00:03:04,845 --> 00:03:08,025


45
00:03:08,225 --> 00:03:11,235
So, he plunged into a religious life

46
00:03:11,235 --> 00:03:13,855
he studied and tried to become a pastor.

47
00:03:13,855 --> 00:03:14,855
He got to deliver a sermon in a town

48
00:03:16,095 --> 00:03:17,895
but because he wasn't good with public speaking

49
00:03:21,685 --> 00:03:22,685
[I'm not good with words but my heart is yours]

50
00:03:25,075 --> 00:03:28,135
Not good with speeches, but wanted to be a pastor

51
00:03:28,135 --> 00:03:32,695
didn't work out. He didn't succeed

52
00:03:33,025 --> 00:03:35,495
so he turned his back to religion

53
00:03:35,495 --> 00:03:38,875
and realized that art was his calling.

54
00:03:38,875 --> 00:03:42,255
"If I don't want to sell pictures, I'll paint them myself"

55
00:03:42,665 --> 00:03:45,495
So during 1880 to around 1890,

56
00:03:45,495 --> 00:03:47,205
these ten years, van Gogh

57
00:03:47,545 --> 00:03:50,445
became a painter and produced so many paintings.

58
00:03:50,445 --> 00:03:53,295
Just in a decade,

59
00:03:53,295 --> 00:03:56,305
he painted around

60
00:03:56,305 --> 00:03:59,165
2,100 paintings.

61
00:03:59,165 --> 00:04:02,035
Try estimating how many days he used per painting.

62
00:04:02,035 --> 00:04:05,015
His paintings weren't simple sketches, but

63
00:04:05,020 --> 00:04:08,140
were oil paintings in big frames.

64
00:04:08,140 --> 00:04:10,340
He painted so many works!

65
00:04:10,700 --> 00:04:13,740
His style is post-impressionism:

66
00:04:13,740 --> 00:04:17,220
bright colours, exciting brushwork.

67
00:04:17,565 --> 00:04:20,855
If you look closely at his work, you can see

68
00:04:20,855 --> 00:04:21,855
how his brush swifts.

69
00:04:22,095 --> 00:04:25,145
When they try to prove a van Gogh,

70
00:04:25,145 --> 00:04:28,175
they usually prove it from the brushwork.

71
00:04:28,175 --> 00:04:30,785
Moreover, van Gogh's subjects are usually

72
00:04:30,785 --> 00:04:33,585
simple daily life objects

73
00:04:33,585 --> 00:04:36,540
to show that there's nothing more to life.

74
00:04:36,540 --> 00:04:39,560
Apart from that, he wasn't an introvert, not interested

75
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,695
in meeting other people like other artists,

76
00:04:42,695 --> 00:04:48,735
So he got to meet other renowned artists

77
00:04:48,735 --> 00:04:51,415
especially his best friend, Paul Gauguin

78
00:04:51,415 --> 00:04:54,355
I believe you have heard his name.

79
00:04:54,375 --> 00:04:57,425
Which leads us to the next painting:

80
00:04:57,425 --> 00:04:58,895


81
00:04:59,265 --> 00:05:01,935
"The Sunflowers"

82
00:05:01,935 --> 00:05:05,145
This painting is actually part of a collection.

83
00:05:05,145 --> 00:05:08,175


84
00:05:08,175 --> 00:05:11,005
The collection is entitled "Decoration for the Yellow House."

85
00:05:11,005 --> 00:05:12,005


86
00:05:12,215 --> 00:05:15,625
These paintings were painted to decorate a yellow house.

87
00:05:15,685 --> 00:05:18,705
Yes, literally yellow. This is van Gogh's house in France

88
00:05:18,705 --> 00:05:21,815
which Gauguin was going to stay at for a while.

89
00:05:21,815 --> 00:05:24,835
Out of love for his friend, van Gogh wanted to decorate

90
00:05:24,835 --> 00:05:27,845
Gauguin's room with a painting of sunflowers

91
00:05:27,845 --> 00:05:30,855
"See Gauguin, life is simple"

92
00:05:30,855 --> 00:05:33,855
"There is no need for extravagant decor"

93
00:05:33,855 --> 00:05:36,335
"just a picture of sunflowers can brighten up your day"

94
00:05:36,385 --> 00:05:37,865
This moved Gauguin so much that

95
00:05:38,255 --> 00:05:41,035
he said that the sunflower collection

96
00:05:41,035 --> 00:05:43,825
is van Gogh's best work.

97
00:05:43,825 --> 00:05:46,335
It's his masterpiece.

98
00:05:46,335 --> 00:05:49,295
The two were really close.

99
00:05:49,295 --> 00:05:51,975
When van Gogh was painting that collection,

100
00:05:51,975 --> 00:05:55,305
Gauguin also painted a picture of van Gogh painting the sunflowers

101
00:05:55,335 --> 00:05:58,655
like a painting of a painting of a painting.

102
00:05:58,945 --> 00:06:01,865
They had a really close relationship,

103
00:06:01,865 --> 00:06:04,875
and also had some dramas like

104
00:06:04,875 --> 00:06:07,795
when van Gogh was depressed

105
00:06:07,795 --> 00:06:10,485
because his unsuccessful life.

106
00:06:10,485 --> 00:06:13,005
His paintings were rarely sold when he was alive.

107
00:06:13,425 --> 00:06:18,985
He only became famous posthumously.

108
00:06:19,355 --> 00:06:22,505
Once, van Gogh was painting and got mad.

109
00:06:22,505 --> 00:06:25,035
He took a blade and

110
00:06:25,035 --> 00:06:28,045
chased Gauguin around

111
00:06:28,045 --> 00:06:31,175
and after unsuccessfully hurting Gauguin,

112
00:06:31,535 --> 00:06:34,685
he used that blade to cut his ear off

113
00:06:34,685 --> 00:06:37,705
and then painted a portrait of himself without the ear.

114
00:06:37,705 --> 00:06:40,735
You might have heard this story.

115
00:06:40,735 --> 00:06:41,735


116
00:06:42,535 --> 00:06:45,565
Because of his mental illness, he committed suicide

117
00:06:45,565 --> 00:06:48,345
at the age of 37. Such a short life.

118
00:06:48,345 --> 00:06:51,215
If he lived longer, we would've been

119
00:06:51,215 --> 00:06:54,285
able to appreciate more of his art.

120
00:06:54,285 --> 00:06:57,155
Despite being able to sell only one painting

121
00:06:57,295 --> 00:07:00,455
from more than 2,000 paintings

122
00:07:00,455 --> 00:07:03,485
when he was alive,

123
00:07:03,485 --> 00:07:06,555
his work became a hit after he died.

124
00:07:06,555 --> 00:07:09,115
Many people bought and sold his work.

125
00:07:09,115 --> 00:07:11,835
It could be said that

126
00:07:11,835 --> 00:07:14,925
his life was quite sad. He couldn't even see his fame.

127
00:07:14,925 --> 00:07:17,975
You can see how popular he is.

128
00:07:17,975 --> 00:07:20,655
It's the only painting people look at.

129
00:07:20,655 --> 00:07:22,925


130
00:07:22,925 --> 00:07:25,775
This is "Sunflowers" painted in 1888.

131
00:07:25,775 --> 00:07:27,665


132
00:07:27,665 --> 00:07:30,495
The "Sunflower" behind me,

133
00:07:30,495 --> 00:07:33,305
he painted it in yellow

134
00:07:33,305 --> 00:07:36,215
to show his friendship.

135
00:07:36,215 --> 00:07:39,215
At first, it was hung in

136
00:07:39,215 --> 00:07:42,435
the guest's room in van Gogh's house.

137
00:07:42,435 --> 00:07:45,175
He was very proud of this painting.

138
00:07:45,175 --> 00:07:48,225
Sunflowers are the symbol of appreciation,

139
00:07:48,225 --> 00:07:50,795
and gratitude.

140
00:07:50,795 --> 00:07:53,535
I tried oil paintings when I was little

141
00:07:53,535 --> 00:07:55,145
and I studied from this painting.

142
00:07:55,455 --> 00:07:58,485
Never thought I'd be able to see the original.

143
00:07:58,485 --> 00:08:01,405
I think this is also a type of a nerd.

144
00:08:01,405 --> 00:08:04,325
You might not know I painted too.

145
00:08:04,325 --> 00:08:07,015
I did oil painting, pastel, acrylic

146
00:08:07,015 --> 00:08:09,985
but now all my skills are gone.

147
00:08:09,985 --> 00:08:13,105
All that's left are the illustrations for my videos.

148
00:08:13,105 --> 00:08:16,225
Let's talk about the sunflower collection.

149
00:08:16,225 --> 00:08:19,265
It's a collection because there isn't just one.

150
00:08:19,265 --> 00:08:22,205
Right?

151
00:08:22,205 --> 00:08:25,155
When I showed the painting, you might've wondered

152
00:08:25,155 --> 00:08:28,425
it doesn't look like the one I've seen.

153
00:08:28,425 --> 00:08:31,475
There are 7 paintings is this set; painted continuously.

154
00:08:31,555 --> 00:08:34,715
Each painting is scattered in different parts of the world.

155
00:08:34,715 --> 00:08:37,805
The 7 paintings are grouped into 2 sets.

156
00:08:37,805 --> 00:08:40,455
The first group are the first 4 paintings.

157
00:08:40,455 --> 00:08:43,075
They are the original paintings intended to decorate the room.

158
00:08:43,075 --> 00:08:46,165
The other 3 are his favourites

159
00:08:46,165 --> 00:08:49,245
so he copied the first 4 and made another set.

160
00:08:49,245 --> 00:08:52,185
So where can you see all 7?

161
00:08:52,455 --> 00:08:55,755
Sadly, you can't see all 7.

162
00:08:55,755 --> 00:09:01,485
Because the first is now private property.

163
00:09:01,485 --> 00:09:04,435
We can only see it if the owner lets us.

164
00:09:04,435 --> 00:09:07,525
The second one is even harder to see.

165
00:09:07,705 --> 00:09:10,775
It was bought by a Japanese buyer to be installed in a museum

166
00:09:10,775 --> 00:09:13,835
but during the second world war,

167
00:09:13,835 --> 00:09:17,265
Japan was bombed,

168
00:09:17,265 --> 00:09:19,265
and the painting disappeared along with other stuff.

169
00:09:19,635 --> 00:09:22,685
Now, people are trying to recreate this painting

170
00:09:22,685 --> 00:09:25,565
from old photographs

171
00:09:25,565 --> 00:09:28,285
but haven't succeeded yet.

172
00:09:28,635 --> 00:09:31,605
It's hard to achieve his brushwork

173
00:09:31,605 --> 00:09:32,605
and other elements.

174
00:09:33,285 --> 00:09:36,455
So, we just have to wait.

175
00:09:36,455 --> 00:09:39,545
If you're a fan of Conan the Detective

176
00:09:39,545 --> 00:09:40,595
Surprising to see that they're connected, right?

177
00:09:40,925 --> 00:09:43,915
but in Conan the Movie 19: Sunflowers of Inferno

178
00:09:43,915 --> 00:09:47,225
the sunflowers in that movie

179
00:09:47,225 --> 00:09:50,435
are a reference to this second painting.

180
00:09:50,585 --> 00:09:53,635
The third painting is one of the most famous.

181
00:09:53,635 --> 00:09:56,505
It is in a museum in Munich, Germany.

182
00:09:56,535 --> 00:09:57,645
We now come to

183
00:09:57,995 --> 00:10:01,065
the fourth painting that I saw.

184
00:10:01,065 --> 00:10:03,835
It might be a well-known painting with the yellow background.

185
00:10:03,835 --> 00:10:07,175
Like said, it's in National Gallery Museum, UK.

186
00:10:07,355 --> 00:10:10,395
If you don't want to travel to UK but want to see

187
00:10:10,395 --> 00:10:16,325
the fourth painting,

188
00:10:16,325 --> 00:10:19,345
the fifth, sixth, and seventh are copies of the first set.

189
00:10:19,345 --> 00:10:22,355
The fourth has two copies and one is

190
00:10:22,355 --> 00:10:25,395
at Tokyo, which is the fifth painting.

191
00:10:25,395 --> 00:10:26,765
And the sixth

192
00:10:26,765 --> 00:10:29,905
is at van Gogh Foundation, Netherlands.

193
00:10:30,225 --> 00:10:33,065
The last is a copy of the one at Munich,

194
00:10:33,065 --> 00:10:36,235
now installed in the US.

195
00:10:36,485 --> 00:10:38,125
So that was a brief story about van Gogh's sunflowers.

196
00:10:38,455 --> 00:10:41,055
Behind me is "van Gogh's Chair"

197
00:10:41,055 --> 00:10:43,585
another famous painting.

198
00:10:43,585 --> 00:10:46,165


199
00:10:46,165 --> 00:10:49,145
It shows his chair, his pipe, and tobacco.

200
00:10:49,145 --> 00:10:51,895
I don't know if I should censor the pipe,

201
00:10:51,915 --> 00:10:55,075
but take it as art.

202
00:10:55,145 --> 00:10:55,565


203
00:10:55,565 --> 00:10:58,565


204
00:10:58,565 --> 00:11:01,575
It is a picture of an ordinary chair, on ordinary earth ware floor

205
00:11:01,575 --> 00:11:04,175
and reflects van Gogh's personality

206
00:11:04,175 --> 00:11:07,195
as a simple and sincere person

207
00:11:07,195 --> 00:11:10,220
not extravagant like artists

208
00:11:10,220 --> 00:11:12,220
before him. Take the Romans as an example.

209
00:11:12,220 --> 00:11:12,725


210
00:11:13,365 --> 00:11:16,275


211
00:11:16,275 --> 00:11:18,535
This is one of his significant works.

212
00:11:18,535 --> 00:11:20,535
This is another van Gogh. It might not be well known among Thais.

213
00:11:20,535 --> 00:11:21,485


214
00:11:21,485 --> 00:11:23,485
It is entitled "Long Grass and Butterflies"

215
00:11:23,485 --> 00:11:24,390
and it is literally

216
00:11:24,390 --> 00:11:25,485
what the name suggests.

217
00:11:25,485 --> 00:11:27,485


218
00:11:27,485 --> 00:11:29,720
Very literal.

219
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:30,425


220
00:11:30,555 --> 00:11:31,055


221
00:11:31,055 --> 00:11:32,915
So it tells us about his character;

222
00:11:32,915 --> 00:11:35,885
that his subjects would be

223
00:11:35,885 --> 00:11:37,645
simple things

224
00:11:37,645 --> 00:11:40,625
which is different from his predecessors,

225
00:11:40,625 --> 00:11:43,675
who would paint about Christianity

226
00:11:43,675 --> 00:11:45,765
have very fancy styles,

227
00:11:45,765 --> 00:11:48,740
put all characters in one frame.

228
00:11:48,740 --> 00:11:51,835
After seeing van Gogh's simplicity,

229
00:11:51,975 --> 00:11:54,565
I'll tell you how exaggerated van Gogh's predecessors were.

230
00:11:55,375 --> 00:11:58,165
So let's go see a lavish artist:

231
00:11:58,265 --> 00:12:04,775
Leonardo da Vinci.

232
00:12:05,185 --> 00:12:08,005
I talked about his biography

233
00:12:08,175 --> 00:12:11,165
in my Italy vlog

234
00:12:11,165 --> 00:12:14,325
where I followed his tracks

235
00:12:14,665 --> 00:12:17,655
to see what he experienced before painting "The Last Supper"

236
00:12:17,655 --> 00:12:20,415
If you haven't watched it

237
00:12:20,415 --> 00:12:21,415
you can click on this link.

238
00:12:21,665 --> 00:12:24,825
Today I'm going to show you

239
00:12:24,935 --> 00:12:27,905
"Virgin on the Rock" or as known as

240
00:12:27,905 --> 00:12:30,875
"Madonna on the Rock."

241
00:12:30,875 --> 00:12:33,585
It is a picture of Mary with

242
00:12:33,585 --> 00:12:36,745
baby Jesus, an angel,

243
00:12:36,745 --> 00:12:38,745
and John the Baptist

244
00:12:38,745 --> 00:12:40,195
who was still an infant.

245
00:12:40,235 --> 00:12:43,125
All of them are in a cave

246
00:12:43,125 --> 00:12:45,725
which is the reason of the title.

247
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:47,148
Many of you may know that Mary

248
00:12:47,148 --> 00:12:48,455
is fully known as Virgin Mary.

249
00:12:48,460 --> 00:12:49,680


250
00:12:49,680 --> 00:12:51,305


251
00:12:51,305 --> 00:12:52,620
You can see that he tried

252
00:12:52,625 --> 00:12:55,475
to emphasize the purity, the virginity

253
00:12:55,475 --> 00:12:58,335
of Mary through the choice of colours

254
00:12:58,335 --> 00:13:01,335
and the halo on her head

255
00:13:01,335 --> 00:13:04,495
In this picture, we see Mary sitting

256
00:13:04,495 --> 00:13:07,545
and Jesus here

257
00:13:07,545 --> 00:13:09,545
and the angel looking over Jesus.

258
00:13:09,545 --> 00:13:11,380
All the important Christian symbols are here.

259
00:13:11,380 --> 00:13:12,115


260
00:13:12,115 --> 00:13:13,520
But, but, but, like the Sunflower collection,

261
00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,115


262
00:13:15,115 --> 00:13:15,840
This painting is also a part of a collection.

263
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,555
There are two paintings in this set.

264
00:13:18,605 --> 00:13:21,635
The first

265
00:13:21,635 --> 00:13:24,835
is at Louvre, France

266
00:13:24,835 --> 00:13:26,265
and the second is the one I saw.

267
00:13:26,635 --> 00:13:29,615
The two have different details.

268
00:13:29,615 --> 00:13:32,575
At first, da Vinci painted

269
00:13:32,575 --> 00:13:34,037
the first one and the commissioner

270
00:13:34,037 --> 00:13:35,155
wanted some things changed

271
00:13:35,155 --> 00:13:37,155
so he had to paint the second one.

272
00:13:37,155 --> 00:13:37,885


273
00:13:37,985 --> 00:13:39,643
It was intended to be hung

274
00:13:39,643 --> 00:13:40,345


275
00:13:40,345 --> 00:13:43,255
in a church in Milan, Italy

276
00:13:43,255 --> 00:13:46,385
but the church

277
00:13:46,385 --> 00:13:49,325
decided to sell the painting.

278
00:13:49,325 --> 00:13:52,225
I believe many of you have read Dan Brown's "Da Vinci Code"

279
00:13:52,225 --> 00:13:55,025
that book made da Vinci popular for a while.

280
00:13:55,155 --> 00:13:58,135
Can you remember when he mentioned Maddona on the Rock?

281
00:13:58,135 --> 00:14:01,185
That he said there are 2 different paintings.

282
00:14:01,185 --> 00:14:04,185
The first has all the evil symbols.

283
00:14:04,185 --> 00:14:07,115
It is this painting I'm talking about.

284
00:14:07,165 --> 00:14:10,275
So if you've read the book, here it is.

285
00:14:10,275 --> 00:14:12,945
You might know this painting.

286
00:14:12,945 --> 00:14:14,855
It's one of the paintings that

287
00:14:14,855 --> 00:14:17,435
he co-painted. It's not 100% his work.

288
00:14:17,505 --> 00:14:18,955
It is an

289
00:14:18,955 --> 00:14:21,615
angel in a green dress, playing an instrument

290
00:14:21,865 --> 00:14:23,456
similar to a violin

291
00:14:23,456 --> 00:14:24,795


292
00:14:24,795 --> 00:14:27,655
but it's a viola.

293
00:14:27,655 --> 00:14:30,865
I give up with Italian. Comment if you know how to read.

294
00:14:30,865 --> 00:14:33,625
You must know Picasso.

295
00:14:33,625 --> 00:14:36,775
This is one of his works, but may not be well-known,

296
00:14:36,775 --> 00:14:39,925
but shows us his brushwork

297
00:14:39,925 --> 00:14:42,595
that is not realistic

298
00:14:42,595 --> 00:14:45,365
So during his time

299
00:14:45,365 --> 00:14:48,405
he was considered a rebel of the arts

300
00:14:48,405 --> 00:14:51,255
"Why are you painting this?" "Go paint beautiful things!"

301
00:14:51,260 --> 00:14:54,440
So he introduced a new chapter of art

302
00:14:54,540 --> 00:14:56,540
Right here is a painting

303
00:14:56,545 --> 00:14:57,100
by another famous painter

304
00:14:57,105 --> 00:15:00,135
like van Gogh

305
00:15:00,135 --> 00:15:02,865
which is Monet

306
00:15:02,865 --> 00:15:04,665
Thais may not know, but he is famous so I'll show you.

307
00:15:04,665 --> 00:15:06,925
So you can see the whole gallery.

308
00:15:06,925 --> 00:15:09,705
Monet is van Gogh's contemporary

309
00:15:09,705 --> 00:15:12,755
but he succeeded is his career

310
00:15:12,755 --> 00:15:15,005
and became very rich

311
00:15:15,005 --> 00:15:18,035
that he could buy a house.

312
00:15:18,035 --> 00:15:21,005
In that house he had a big lotus pond

313
00:15:21,005 --> 00:15:23,875
which inspired him to paint this painting

314
00:15:23,875 --> 00:15:26,805
of the pond.

315
00:15:26,805 --> 00:15:29,595
You might be familiar with this painting, so I wanted to show you.

316
00:15:29,595 --> 00:15:32,885
So how was the tour?

317
00:15:32,885 --> 00:15:35,855
It must have made you art nerds

318
00:15:35,855 --> 00:15:39,065
excited to some extent.

319
00:15:39,065 --> 00:15:41,855
If you went to Louvre, when you go see Mona Lisa

320
00:15:41,855 --> 00:15:44,915
or other works, you can only see from afar

321
00:15:44,915 --> 00:15:47,725
and there is always a crowd

322
00:15:47,725 --> 00:15:50,565
but at National Gallery Museum, England,

323
00:15:50,565 --> 00:15:53,145
the works are very accessible

324
00:15:53,145 --> 00:15:56,265
there is only a thin line, and the paintings are inches away

325
00:15:56,265 --> 00:15:59,725
we can observe the brushwork of van Gogh closely.

326
00:15:59,745 --> 00:16:02,775
So if you go to England and like art

327
00:16:02,775 --> 00:16:05,815
I recommend you to go there. It is also free!

328
00:16:05,815 --> 00:16:08,595
And most importantly,

329
00:16:08,595 --> 00:16:11,605
there are not only beautiful paintings,

330
00:16:11,605 --> 00:16:12,515
the building is also fascinating.

331
00:16:12,515 --> 00:16:15,515
If you like this video, don't forget to click

332
00:16:15,515 --> 00:16:18,635

333
00:16:18,635 --> 00:16:21,995
If you want me to take you anywhere else

334
00:16:21,995 --> 00:16:22,845
comment below.

335
00:16:22,845 --> 00:16:24,335
See you next time. Bye!

336
00:16:24,705 --> 00:16:27,335
For those who think that

337
00:16:27,335 --> 00:16:30,235
galleries are boring, and shopping is more fun

338
00:16:30,235 --> 00:16:33,095
It's not like that at all.

339
00:16:33,095 --> 00:16:36,095
Whether you are an art nerd like me

340
00:16:36,095 --> 00:16:39,105
or just a hip person this is a place for you

341
00:16:39,105 --> 00:16:42,345
because not only the paintings inside,

342
00:16:42,385 --> 00:16:45,035
but the gallery building itself

343
00:16:45,035 --> 00:16:48,235
is a dome building, and decorated perfectly inside.

344
00:16:48,235 --> 00:16:51,675
The front is also exciting. I walk past it every day.

345
00:16:51,675 --> 00:16:54,765
It's a square that everyone comes

346
00:16:54,765 --> 00:16:57,695
to show their art. Even street artists

347
00:16:57,695 --> 00:17:00,125
come to draw on the floor with chalk.

348
00:17:00,125 --> 00:17:02,735
Many of them are really pretty. So you can take a walk here.

349
00:17:02,735 --> 00:17:06,115
If you watched, and know any of the paintings

350
00:17:06,155 --> 00:17:07,395
come talk with me down below!
