We start in Florence with Filippo Lippi and his rendition of the Medicis’ favourite saints, including one poor soul with a butcher knife through his noggin. We then move on to Southern Germany to meet a handsome woman with a realistic fly gag on her head, followed by two saints associated with the plague and a mysterious self-flagellating sect by Siena’s Giovanni de Paolo. Still in the 15th century, we explore the mysteries of Piero di Cosimo’s Procris and Cephalus (Laelaps, is that you?), and move into the 16th century with Quentin Massys’s iconic Old Woman who has spawned a thousand memes. But was the Ugly Duchess actually a woman with Paget’s Disease? We then head back to Germany to talk about Lucas Cranach’s vaguely seductive mother and son with Cupid Complaining to Venus, before visiting Bronzino’s explicitly seductive mother and son in the Allegory with Venus and Cupid (aka Venus, Cupid, Folly and Time). Making our way into the 17th century, we spend some time with Domenichino’s punishment – a dwarf chained in the bottom of his Apollo Killing the Cyclops, and get chills down our spine with Rosa’s Lovecraftian Witches at their Incantations. Finally, we end our museum tour with Winston Churchill, of all people, in Boris Anrep’s Mosaics. 0:00 - Introduction to the tour 1:33 - Seven Saints by Fra Filippo Lippi (1450) 5:00 - Portrait of a Woman of the Hofer Family by A Swabian Artist (1470) 8:25 - Saints Fabian and Sebastian – Giovanni de Paolo (1475) 12:20 - Satyr Mourning Over a Nymph – Piero di Cosimo (1495) 16:42 - Ugly Duchess - Quentin Massys (1513) 21:07 - Cupid Complaining to Venus - Lucas Cranach (1526) 24:40 - Allegory with Venus and Cupid – Bronzino (1545) 29:19 - Apollo Killing the Cyclops - Domenichino (1616) 32:40 - Witches at their incantations - Salvatore Rosa (1646) 35:38 - Anrep Mosaics – Boris Anrep (1928-1952) Videos mentioned in this tour The Top Ten Paintings in the National Gallery:    • The Top Ten Paintings in The National...   Ten MORE Must-See Paintings in the National Gallery:    • Ten MORE Must-See Paintings at the Na...   Saint Denis, the Cephalaphore Saint, in the Louvre -    • UPDATED AT NEW LINK The 20 Most Famou...   The Origin of the Cyclops in the Musée Fragonard -    • France's "House of Horrors" - The Fra...   Paget’s Disease at the Hunterian Museum:    • London's Grisliest Museum? A Guided T...   Like The Museum Guide on Facebook!   / themuseumguide   You should really join the London Urban Oddities Facebook group to submit your favourite weird places in London.   / 2037408773114764   Hana Elvy creates my thumbnails – you can hire her to make your YouTube thumbnails here: https://www.peopleperhour.com/hourlie...
