Joseph Mallord William Turner

[TGRWorzel]

This is quite spooky/haunting actually, mainly because of the soundtrack but the little bit of movement and the fading in/out really brings JMW Turner's paintings to life. Congratulations to SaintGeorgesDragon. This is absolutely stunning. A first-rate video.

p.s. do check my blog, particularly the Famous Ancestor page...!

[lassisimo]

It comes an exhibition of Turners paintings to Hamburg from 2.6.-11.9.2011, and i´m full of expectations. You did a great video !! Turner is my personal god in the world of painters, no one catched the play of light in the elements like he did ! Thanks for this video :)

[TheSimpleFly999]

eccellente!

[ILOVEAYANAMI]

simplemente impresionante eso si una pequeña reflexion q ami en cierto mono me hace gracia os dais cuenta de que cuando alguien dice william turner la gente piensa en piratas del caribe? XD / amazing.... but here its a finny reflexion . dont you think that its too weird that when you mention the name of william turner most of the people will think on orlando blooms character???

[HughFromAlice]

I clicked on this at random first thing in the morning. It's inspired me for the day :-)

[franquesadamata]

He visto dos veces gran cantidad de obras de Turner : una en Londres y otra en la Exposición Turner y los Maestros. Cada vez alucino más con este pintor.

[painstil]

one of the best painters for me

[fluorogoat]

Words fail in describing the awesome of these pictures.

[ostelove]

This is just amazing! Beautiful and powerful music! What music is this?

[Peterade]

Music is Masked Ball by Jocelyn Pook I think.

Used in Eyes Wide Shut.

[saneroner]

great music choice, it really made the atmosphere in the film.

[tomasmcl]

The music is incredible, can anyone tell me what its called and who its by please?

[rdgloveshouse]

...are you trying to be smart or something?

[rdgloveshouse]

your really making your self look good here (*roll eyes*)

notice that you're the one who got 9 thumbs down not me.

[rdgloveshouse]

well that's a useless and pointless comment besides the fact that he isn't.

[sharlenefix]

Yes, Ricky you are right. Turner was a genius. So was Holst and Elgar and Vaughn Williams for that matter.

[rdgloveshouse]

if Ricky sent you here reply or give this comment a thumbs up

=)

[VinBoy1972]

Lick my balls if you love Jesus.

[rdgloveshouse]

lolx

god doesn't exist

= D

[theshortladders]

Former pop star Ricky Gervais sent me here! What happens when you play this song backwards? Yellow Submarine?

[eyemyth]

For those wondering about the music, it's by Jocelyn Pook, from the album Flood. It's called "Masked Ball" and yes, it was used in Eyes Wide Shut.

[polkadotsandtrains]

It was a dark and stormy night...then came the dawn.

Thanks Ricky Gervais for opening my mind once again.

[JeMappleBaguette]

ricky sent me here

[Sadiespeople]

Gee. That was fun...

But seriously, obviously tremendous paintings, but the subject matter leaves me cold.

[vangeldercj]

Indeed thanks to Ricky Gervais for these youtube links... Me thinks he is no dummy :)

[sam1234black]

Ricky is like a GOD

(even though there isnt one)

lol

[PoppaPapaPop]

I too am a disciple of Ricky.

[carlabanana]

Moody, I like it (Ricky guided me here!).

[ErniePi]

i come in peace, lead by a pug-nosed fat bloke from reading

[amalmavani]

much love to rg for directing me here.

[jaday89]

uncle ricky sent me here!

:)

[jumpinjp]

Ricky sent me here!

What a guy!

[ThomasEdwardFreeman]

that is the music from the orgy in Kubricks Eyes Wide Shut, no?

[luckystrike1]

William Turner! Me and Ricky have very similar taste. My favourite piece has to be: fishermen at sea.

[19nat72]

Ricky sent me here!

[garethbowler]

haha snap!

[srgt2006]

likes his boats - love the cheeky portrait at the end made me laugh

[nbarrett100]

Ricky sent me here too and Turner is also the best painter and his best painting is the Great Western.

[girliehun]

ahhh i love turner!!

[eminemfansite]

Gervais sent me here too.

Not bad.

Personally I prefer images with more life to them as in some sort of intellectual substance, something that intrigues a little. But isn't pretentious.

[Carfer22]

Disturbing accompaniment!

[WrongHeaded07]

It just goes to show, you can't be too careful!

[LeoTheBoy]

Yeah, I think the music, whatever it is, is on the "Eyes Wide Shut" soundtrack..

[joeatkins89]

pretty epic stuff. cheers ricky!

[tristanoutlaw86]

Ricky Gervais sent me here!!

[georgepowell72]

Ricky Gervais sent me here!

[docklanders29]

Ricky Gervais Sent Me Here!

[dovesfan]

Being in the royal navy i have seen many different moods of the sea, Turner captures these moods fantastically well This along with the old wooden ships he paints helps me imagine what it could have been like in the napoleonic wars etc

[DillHarris]

Fantastic, Turner's work is engagingly composed!

[setare89]

AAAH questa musica mi perseguitaaaa

[marusssja]

Wonderful painter!

But what was the music? the words sound as it the were rewinded with the help of some computer porgramm and at the end it started distracting attention

[urbania70]

Love Turner. This choice of dramatical paintings from the master goes well with the music. It's from the last Kubrick's movie, isn't it?

[Galiah13]

Turner - is my love. Тhank you for posting.But this music is awful and unsuitable!!!

[Mensjesrechten]

I love it!

[Alcyna]

♥♥♥

[Marylotte]

Willian Turner et Eugène Boudin ... les plus beaux ciels

[maimrozek]

A great tribute to J.M.W. TURNER!!!

Love his paintings...

[Alcyna]

Thanks my friend!!

[meesterschilders]

great dark combination of music and immages

[deiktes]

Powerful paintings! And the music merges perfectly with them! Thank you for uploading this video!

[cobru]

the 'band' that sings this song is an orthodox service, in romanian (a guy quoting from the bible, in romanian)... but backwards. nicely done ;)

[OuroborosUnderground]

only once is enough. i wanna see the sky he draws in the real life. ty 4 the upload. the sound matched perfectly.

[ParishYoung]

I feel like drawn into the pictures. Mesmerizing!

[koreanzen]

this song is used at the stanly kubrik movies " EYES WIDE SHUT ". at the scene of group sexual intercourse in the mood of hetereogenous rite

이 곡은 스탠리 큐브릭의 아이즈 와이드셧에 나온 음악임.

[vertigogirl21]

Beautiful! Love Turner! However, as for me, the music is too dark for his pictures. I find quite the opposite atmosphere looking at the paintings . But otherwise this is great!

[giulianopietra]

bello e molto azzeccato il brano musicale perchè gli da quel aria di mistero che colloca questo artista in un tempo sospeso.

Complimenti!

[brendafohio]

Ahhh Turner...love the light and the treatment of weather. Beautiful.

[Alcyna]

Thanks Brenda, i have imagined a travel, the departure, the risks, the calm and the landing place. Great Turner!

[mitqam]

qual a Url?

[arturmdr]

Genial!

Video and Music! (What it's the band????)

[tricia3007]

Very dark... :~0

[giulianopietra]

bravo e originale la scelta musicale legata ai tuoi video, c'è molto da imparare di tuoi lavori

[WhiskeyArjan]

Grat painter! His colours, his paintstructures... genius!

[Alcyna]

Thanks, and thanks also to the art of Turner!

Ciao :-)

[oidacra7]
