Just watched the whole show. Pure revisionism unfortunately. An exercise in only looking only for evidence to support a theory, as opposed to actually getting to the truth whatever it is. (Also fabricating and imagining some evidence for it along the way.) Not done in a sinister way, just ignorantly and egotistically.

Those historical fabrications and inaccuracies aside, the thinking is deeply flawed. Not quite up there with 9/11 "truth" theories or holocaust denial but revisionism nonetheless.

Painting is a life long craft requires many hours of practice and using the knowledge, not only knowing some "secrets"!

additionally the old masters know how to tell a story and how to compose an image as well, not just drawing the heck out of the figure or scenary.

this theory has actually been around for along time. while theres no definitive evidence, it is likely, considering the CO did exist, and we also know now that modern, contemporary realists liberally use photographs in their work. isn't it plausible that the old masters came to the same kind of conclusions about the camera obscura, seeing as how its human nature to try and find more facility in anything?

Gracias por compartirlo.

@WuffPakk7 You don't know the first thing about me, so it's rather presumptious to make comments about me or my motives. And second if you don't like comments then you should not discuss in the open but in private. Otherwise I have every right to make any comment I want, as long as it is not rude or insulting. Same goes for your opinion about 9/11, which I have every right to comment on, especially when you start it on a documentary about David Hockney whom you obviously don't know

@robitusson Truth be known, we don't know one way or another. Only a fool will dismiss anything outside of their own experience as impossible and Hockney proved that it was possible that some artist could have used this technique. Even if they did, it does not devalue the skill the the artists of that period.

No David is absolutely right about this!

[WuffPakk7]

@ootrip40 Do you own this page? No? Ok then stfu with the move my discussion somewhere else. Make me fool. Exactly. You must like the conversation because you jumped right into it, or do you just like to talk shit on a computer because you can't in real life. Or you just like an arguement any chance you get? Lame. Like I said, 9/11 was an inside job no doubt. Only a brainwashed, programmed moronic sheep would believe the 9/11 story. Btw, they just said Iran had something to do with it now

@WuffPakk7 Did you people even see what this is about? One minute we're looking at van Eyck and Caravaggio, next minute you have already twisted the subject to 9/11! Move your lame discussions somewhere else, please. Give me a brake.
