    Lance’s emotional reaction to learning how his grandfather willingly put his entire fortune on the line to save a friend and his family from a violent regime was, by far, the best part of your entire series. That moment was worth everything, it was absolutely beautiful. ❤

    "A pig-rolling competition, which was won by a woman called Mrs. Death-- and frankly the mind boggles." 😂

    Episode 2 is a beautifully told story. Was left in tears at the end....
  • @bonbonmomom
    When they brought the stained glass to the window my eyes swelled with tears.

    I used to watch this series a while back when I started painting seriously. Watching all the drama was frustrating to me but it made me more aware of my materials, archiving, and provenance. I established practices around this knowledge. The last decade, I haven't painted at all. Watching the series now, I'm curious about the artists introduced here which sends me off to explore more about them. The geek in me loves all the forensics and the researcher in me loves all the history and detective work. Thank you!
  • I love the widow and owner of an air bnb! I was so happy for her! Knowing what was at stake…..Awesome I almost cried, for joy!

    How cute that Archie. He looks as if he stepped right through time from early 1800 on that wonderful suit he had on. So precious.
  • @elohimsown9244
    Fiona's and Philip's compassion towards her is fantastic. CONGRATULATIONS! RIP, Neil!
  • @SeldimSeen1
    One of the best shows ever to learn about art and the drama that goes along with these masterpieces.

    Another artist who frequented the French pub and was friends with Francis and all of them was Harold Arthur Drury whose works I have here in Vermont ;over 300 paintings. Harold is my father and I am still working on his provenance years after his death in 2003

    The owner of the Lucian Freud painting, to me, had a recemblence to the painting... So happy for the Wilson family that there painting is real, and the glass stained window in the light, was beautifull.

    I was on the edge of my seat, but so excited that her painting was the original and lost treasure royal treasure that they found! How amazing!
  • As a child my family and I spent many hours in Chicago's art museum. My father enjoyed drawing. I really enjoy your show
  • @caseygant5128
    ❤love this series - such mystery,. Intrigue, plot twists...Hosts & stories are fabulous
  • The colors of the stained glass would have been changed. The gold color with the yellow sunlight would have bleached out the intensity. Change it to red and the color intensifies with the sunlight. A touch of gold in the surrounding details works to highlight those details just as a gold picture frame highlights a painting.

    I absolutely love this show, but I have to laugh sometimes when they go for the drama and Phil is gobsmacked that the painting is actually THE RIGHT SIZE if you measure from painted edge to painted edge - oh my gosh, that little exposed canvas border (plainly visible to the naked eye) was making it seem larger! Who knew! Not me with my 30+ years of experience in the art world 😂😂😂😂
