London — a city where art is on every corner. But even here it's easy to feel lost: — Why does one painting give you goosebumps while another makes you yawn? — Who are all these people in the paintings and why are they even there? — How do you tell a masterpiece from just an old thing? We've created a museum walk course to answer these questions — without memorizing dates, but with vivid examples, history, and lively discussion. ⸻ Day 1 — The National Gallery Old Masters, Great Ideas, Debates Across the Centuries. For example: What if the artist is a murderer? Should you still look at his paintings? Caravaggio killed a man. But his works are in every textbook. He painted saints as prostitutes, added blood to altarpieces, and made scenes on canvas seem to leap into the room. Can you admire someone who became a genius through violence? In the lecture we will:

Explore how artists made it into the pantheon of greats (and who promoted them there) Learn to read paintings as stories — even if you don't know the terminology Discuss how an artist's personality affects the perception of art Walk through key epochs — from antiquity to the 19th century

✨ Perfect for you if: ✔ You want to learn to look consciously ✔ You're tired of dry audio guides and boring tours ✔ It's important to you to understand — not just pretend
