I don't consider myself an intellectual idiot but when I view a show with folks like Walter Liedtke with his amazing knowledge and ability to pass that knowledge on I feel totally inadequate. What an amazing person he is.

Mr. Liedtke has to be the curator of curators. His scholarship is so awesome and so is the manner in which he expounds on it.
This was one of Charlie's best programs.
Thank you for a most enjoyable hour.

Lovers of the Rembrandt experience in the New York area may want to know about "Christ with the Folded Arms" which is up the road a super tad at the Hyde Collection in Glens Falls, New York. My neophyte understanding is that the scholars consider the Hyde holding Rembrandt's most sophisticated interpretation of the Christ. From observations of his works in Paris and Amsterdam this seems correct. I have not seen a piece of his work I love more. It offers the viewer the potential for a transcendent experience. Bill Grace
