Holbein: Capturing Character 

Wow wow wow wow … the most exciting pure artist ever … his extraordinary use of the original palette is breathtaking … his drawing natural skill is beyond use of line … is more volumetric and multidimensional … the use of values is dynamic … in my humble opinion Holbein and Botticelli were the inventors of the modern idea of the human image in the collective mind … kudos for this marvelous exposition … is a gift for the Humanity

Holbein's ability to capture the character of his sitters is astounding!

I love the entire presentation.

I traveled from Nebraska just to see this exhibition! It was an amazing experience!

I love portrait paintings by Holbein and van Eyck. But my favourit are the portraits (date c. 1475) of Knight and Lord Ivar Axelsson (Tott) and his second wife Magdalena Karlsdotter, the daughter of King Karl Knutsson of Sweden. You can see them in Denmark, Gärnäs castle.

Holbein painted real people. All other portraits appear to be very stylised and unreal. I always look at those squinting, in an effort to get some idea what the sitter actually looked like.

I'd be overjoyed if this could travel to the UK in some form.

Wonderful...wish i could see the exhibition in person....

A fantastic exhibit!

Would love to have viewed this. To me Holbein creates a real tangible portrait. I am sure the sitter looked like that. Well, perhaps a bit of Photoshop!

Wonderful video but the background music is annoying and unnecessary
