A Great critic. A Great teacher. A Great communicator. A better documentary on the Baroque is not possible.

If I had had this marvelous art historian as a professor in my art college I would have aced the course and might seriously have considered art history as a profession. The way he connects the art with the politics, economics, psychology, personal lives of the artists, and life during a period makes so much sense. Professor Wally’s humorous and wonderfully informative commentary breathes life into what for me was a dull, forgettable art school experience. I’m now quite excitedly back in art history class. Thank you Professor!!

This guy is an anbsolute gem in art history, not only bringing you the note-worthy moments, but giving you a prespective on why they are considered canon.

[andyskelton]

Waldemar no one does it better, you are a legend. Thank you

[FranknBerg]

Nobody else puts you into the history of art in such a viscerally absorbing context like Waldemar Januszczak. His unique recipe of detailed research of the every day and the grand consumes one. Pure gold.

Waldemar is a great host. I would like to see more content like this from him.

[RD]

These Waldemar Januszczak documentaries are excellent.

[Gardengirl]

I will only watch Waldemar,
No nosance, just just love him.

[garryhastings]

I know he would hate me for saying this but this man is himself a genius at teaching. I adore everything he has done and can't help but constantly praise him. I studied art history for three years at Uni but t was never like this.

[vlastaprikaska]

Mr. Waldemar Janusczak promoted the history of art to the multi-sensual experience, I love this series

[ellaellis]

More of such documentaries, Waldemar, please!

[grahamthomas]

Best Entertainer at this time Waldermar Januszczak. Thank you.

[pooryorick]

These are the best things on YouTube dealing with the art of the Baroque. Thank you for covering this often overlooked period in art and giving it the treatment it deserves.

[eviloverlordsean]

I don't know if this is representing art, art history, history alone, or the pivot position that art occupies in societies past and present... but I love it. This type of presentation is like a great stew or goulash where the individual components are more enjoyable together than separate.

[billyjune]

This whole series is very well produced and WJ does a good job of conducting a tour through a most interesting content perspective. I am watching the entire series, well done.

[deliafunk]

Absolutely marvellous series, so enlightening, so refreshing, so original! An eye opener of note!

[pennyetchey]
