Who Was The Real Mary Magdalene? Art's Scarlet Woman (Waldemar Januszcsak Documentary) | Perspective

I love Waldemar's style of presentation and his deep understanding of art. Makes understanding it very easy

This is definitely the perfect program to watch after a long winter break-- with candles lit on a Sunday night in the quiet of your bedroom, cozy and warm. It feels like watching PBS with my mom on Sunday nights as a child, only way more interesting and with a host I actually squeal with delight when I see his face and name. Thank you Waldemar for helping me transition between the hustle and bustle of the holidays to being able to deal with Monday with your absolute passion for art history as my therapy. I'm excited to learn when you're doing the talking! Rock on, brother .

I love the narration, the humor and the passion of this presenter. Amazingly well done. Please keep on doing these documentaries!

With his infectious Londoner straight forwardness, his self-deprecating humor and his passion for Art, Waldemar serves up the meat and potatoes to everyones' historical delight, and says, "Here ya go love, have some more!". Bravo Waldemar!

I will never unhear Waldemar's pronunciation of MARE-y. What a brilliant man.

I’m an art historian and this is simply brilliant! He explains and connects well the different painters and renderings of the Magdalene 🖼

all of the programs in this series are so beautifully presented I have literally been moved to tears more then once.

For those who might be wondering, the music we hear repeatedly sampled (for example, at 26:00) is "Chramer, Gip die Varwe Mir" from Carl Orff's "Carmina Burana." It's about a woman buying cosmetics in hopes that she'll become irresistible to men.

STUNNING -- I can't get enough ! Waldemar is an international TREASURE!!!

I’m saying, Waldemar is a bleedin’ genius! Simply brilliant!

I am curious about Waldemar and his story after watching so many of his wonderful presentations on arts and artists and the history of arts ! I really enjoy his teachings and so grateful to his great works so I could travel in his videos in this pandanmic days .Thank you Mr Malsemar.

"Why anyone would name three of their daughters Mary is beyond me" ... laughing from Latin America

Such a delight to have stumbled upon Mr Januszcsak. He keeps the line twisty yet utterly straight to highlight the art, the artist and most of all the artistry. And finally after so long I get the meaning of: Elle pleure comme une Madeleine ...

Gorgeous video with a passionate and inspired way of telling the story of Mary Magdalene and the resurrection of Christ in Art 🧡🙏

I truly enjoyed this show, you guys go the extra mile walking to present it so clearly that it blows my mind. Thank you.

Another excellent documentary, so well done. Interesting, fast paced, the time line is easy to understand. I was enthralled while watching it. Thank you so much sir.

Unlike so many art /historical/sociological commentators , to whom , in response , one may often find oneself asleep in their morning bowl of oatmeal - Mr Janusczcak is a delightfully bright ray of originality - what an impressively talented chap who brings every concievable element of relevancy to bear inhis presentation - exceedingly great wit and sociological insight being two great points of , what one might consider to set him clearly apart from the herd - I'm gratefully thankful for this firebrand of a personality ☺ Bravo Waldemar !!!

During a visit of one of the ancient cemeteries of Rome, my Dutch tour guide told the following. He was a retired university teacher of classical languages (Latin was his specialization). In the Roman empire of the time, prostitution was officially forbidden by law - like cannabis in the Netherlands today. But it was tolerated to a point, in public life. Advertising, soliciting, was strictly forbidden. And one place was exempt: the cemetery. Here, prostitutes visited to affix their "business cards" to the walls of the cemetery. These cards held their name, their specialization (think missionary, doggy or else) and their rate. To which I replied, now the quote in the New Testament, what do you do here to search the living among the dead, gets a whole new meaning.

Such an accurate interpretation of history, which changes constantly with interpreters. Lovely way of presenting the human nature.💖 Thank you.

He is the greatest teacher..his enthusiasm is unmatched..
