Someone over at the Gammell Lack Institute of American Art is putting out great videos on academic / impressionist painters of the past.
There are videos about William Merritt Chase, Vojtěch Hynais, Robert Blum, Charles Sprague Pearce, John William Waterhouse, Antonio Mancini, and many more.
R. Ives Gammell and Richard Lack helped keep the flame of academism alive by passing on the knowledge of studio practice in their teaching.
On the YouTube channel I don't see a credit for the writer, editor, or voiceover person, but the art is well chosen and the voice sounds polished. I'd love to know more about how they produce these, because the videos are coming out at a rapid pace.
If you like this GurneyJourney blog, you'll enjoy these Gammell/Lack videos. Check out their video channel: Gammel Lack Institute of American Art

That is amazing that he studied under Jean Leon Gerome. I am big admirer of his work, and would have loved the opportunity to apprentice under him.
A lack of chronological consistency in the videos makes me think some of the script has AI work in it. The video on bunker, for instance, goes from his early work straight to his last paintings, then back to the middle. Very welcoming of more art history videos on YT, though.
