Tobias Capwell did an AMAZING job in this lecture. Stunning
-
"It's my lecture so I'll say what I want." Thank you!
-
Absolutely superb! For someone who knows nothing about armour, this opens up a whole field of art-historical study I didn’t even know existed. Brilliant.
-
That was truly special and illuminating in way not often encountered...even by people who are generally interested in art. Thank you for posting it and hosting the lecture.
-
Always thumbs up for Capwell!
-
What an interesting talk on a field I had not thought of as a topic of interest.
-
Long-bow's archers: Whom should we aim at? The commander: How 'bout the guy with golden armour?
-
This dude is awesome, he knows sh*t loads about armour, amazing! I can see why he's head of the class.
-
His real name is Bartolomé de Cárdenas. Bermejo or red as it was said in ancient Spanish, is a nickname after the color of his hair.
-
This was GREAT. It also made me check out other books written by Tobias Capwell. for one I sent the video along to a friend who works 3d objects and another who works forging about his knives.
-
Fascinating. Wonderfully informative on a topic I'd never even thought about before.
-
Thank you.
-
Interesting lecture, so detailed. Thank you. Please keep sharing.
-
Brilliantly articulated. Thank you for this wonderfully educational lecture.
-
Wonderful whimsical lecture, truly genius connecting art with armor! He did what the artist did, he connected something our worldly with the transcendent outer-worldly thing like art.
-
Such an interesting talk, thank you!
-
At 45,00 you can even see the reflection of an high medieval city in the gilded breastplate. Exquisite.
-
This is amazing. He should do a clip focusing on codpieces
-
It's great to hear Toby Capwell's enthusiasm: when he talks about "contemporary armour" (as opposed to Roman) it shows he is really living in the Middle Ages 😉
-
Wonderful and interesting lecture. Thank you.
