    Veronase reception in Britain
    Exellent subject and material marred by very poor speaker. Peter Humfrey would benefit from some 'presentation' training.

    Fantastic show
    I just recently stumbled into this podcast but I couldn’t be happier I did! Fantastic episodes and lots of interesting content. Can’t wait to go back to DC and see ‘The Life of Animals in Japanese Art’! Thank you and keep up the great work!

    Love the lectures but
    Would be wonderful if the audience could see the pictures.

    Art if the Harpsichord
    Very interesting, though one longs to see the photos of the splendid instruments, too. One suggestion: since the speakers thought to conclude their presentation with a performance of Bach on harpsichord, this audio listener would have loved to have heard the full piece. Instead, the podcast faded it out very quickly. Why not include it all? Thanks.

    treasure trove
    Plenty of lectures by people who know what they are talking about. Details, elaborations, evidence. A real pleasure.

    A wonderful resource
    I'm so grateful to be able to access these amazing lectures, after the fact and from afar. Thank you, National Gallery!

    Since the NGA started making these podcasts available, my listening time during commute, exercise, and down time have become a valued opportunity to reflect on important issues of the day in art history and appreciation. These treasures are the highest form of public education and I sincerely appreciate the NGA's efforts to bring them to the world of iTunes.
