Basically NY is a vulgar copy of Europe… To keep the new rich money mongers, believing they were as cultured and important as their European ancestors😅 Whilst Europe looked over in amusement and nauseating horror 🤔😂 Pebbledash is awful! 🤮 In England it’s only used in poor people’s coastal houses, because they couldn’t afford plastering or wood!
Interesting!
Before I start viewing this documentary about the "treasure" that was Stanford White, I want to share this information… In the early 1900's, Stanford White invited under aged model Evelyn Nesbit to his NYC apartment where he plied her with liquor to the the point of unconsciousness… he then raped her. This crime took place in a 10'x10" room. The walls and ceiling were paneled with mirrors. Undoubtedly, Ms.Nesbit was not Mr. White's first victim or his last… think Jeffrey Epstein. Fortunately, justice was served in 1906 when Stanford White was shot twice in the back and once through the head. He died instantly.. Read about it here… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evelyn_Nesbit I'm buoyed by the many comments below referencing the same story.
I'm such an old New Yorker now that this makes me wish Dick Cavett narrated a lot more of these NYC documentaries when he was younger.
its a quite small structure LOL
how come we see the pix of the buildings n monuments completed but not at the beginning of the construction….hmmm more like inherited architecture… and not make money…and not trained in architecture??? better to distract w love scandals..distract from that fact that even his sketches were weak in comparison to the pre standing buildings? ok..im convinced mr white built the gilded age from scratch 👍🏽
He actually was a great architect, able to combine in a new form several inspirations taken by several architectural ages and places. Please note how the bronze doors of the library are inspired by this – https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barisano_da_Trani – Italian XII th century example. Though, White's doors are more dramatic and powerful and he was able to combine a Medioeval example in a Rainassance building with no contrast. I'm really curious to know where he could have seen the Italian example and which architecural magazines he could have been red. Anyway, his knowledge about historical Italian architecture has certainly been extraordinarly vast.
that was so amazing and interesting
I’m willing to bet my life theres not one black man in that circle of “Great American Men” they should just add the word WHITE In front of American men… when are they gonna make that right????..
Sadly if he were born today they would label him ADHD and fill him full of pills. Imagine how many creative minds are being dulled by psychologists.
Mr Stern calls Evelyn Nessbit White's girlfriend?!!!! WTF?!!!!!!! White raped her when she was 14 years old, she was not his girlfriend, not his lover and not his mistress. She was a victim and White got his punishment WAY late.
He didn't build **** !
Seen many of his surviving NYC buildings many times In a city not far from me theres a park he designed and has historical plaques. Too bad par is now dumping ground fort junkies.
Looking at all these beautiful buildings and the architecture makes me think how often I hear black people saying that America was built by black people.
My name is Floyd Ross Nesbit.My grand father Milton Kidd Nesbit married my grandmother when she was thirteen years old.This was not uncommon in the eighteen hundreds and early nineteen hundreds.I am eighty seven years old now.I remember when I was in high school in the late forty's and early fifty's.Many young teenage girls married and not much was thought about it.Evelyn Nesbit the girl friend of Stanford White was fourteen years old.
I'm sure they would be real proud of New York now…..just saying.
Bad commentary. Dry dry!
You can whitewash a fence with birdshit, but it'll stink. As does this stink. Don't watch this for a history of White, there are better, less flinching ones. Now please excuse the narrators, they need to ice their knees, and master White needs his bath.
MADE ON THE BACKS OF SLAVES!
Left overs from the Tartarian mud flood. No photos of it being built. Fakejakes with their fakejake history.
Stanford White Murdered. He seemed like a very likely to be a preening egomaniacal man.
no one is killed like that unless they were a selfish cad….that being said, he was Marvelously talented, and being from Boston- we have the Boston public Library and that is a Gilded age monument .!!!!
Was it Sanford whites group that took over and ousted the Black Community for Central Park?
Stanford White was the designing architect for a log built Episcopalian Mission church (St. Andrew's Episcopal) in Chelan Washington, where I grew up.
It was built in the 1890s, only a dozen years after the town on Lake Chelan was founded. It is a jewel, rustic and elegant at the same time.
Hissah to Stanford White, and curses to his dastardly foe.
Did Stanford Have Children?
America you stole Gods people, you took Hebrew Israelites and named them whatever you wanted, murder, rape… you name it was done to Gods people. Well He’s now here for his people and every soul against His people will be destroyed!!
Pigs of America !
What beautiful buildings. Hopefully we don't see them defiled in the future. Those craftsmen don't exist anymore.
Would have loving back then. The Architecture that he came up with is treasured art!
I just started watching and I already know I'm watching something very special. This video made me feel special today, thank you, I feel terrible for thee tragedy. I am glad I watched this.
A wonderful man, a true genius, not unlike Bill Cosby lol.
I 1st heard of Stanford White in high school from the Hollywood movies. Even with that, I was fascinated by the man. This was a wonderful film about him. I loved the guilded age. It was gorgeous, if not decadent.
I can't stand listening to the host voice. I'm out!
DON'T FORGET HIS MUSTACHE !
Is this the guy that demolished an entire black neighborhood to build Central Park?
A fascinating piece of history. So glad to see Dick Cavett, and happy he purchased the White home.
It is surprising how recently our history was altered. If one listens carefully one realizes that Stanford White appropriated the architectural abilities and made living by dealing in the very creations of the recently displaced and previous civilization.
I like the history,,but I always think of the people who couldn't afford shit,,although they worked so hard..the extravagance of these filthy rich fat cats leaves me sickened
@22:25 you can see the membership of the Players' Club. The first name displayed is Edwin Booth. He was the older brother of John Wilkes Booth.
The next big story will be that of Jeffrey Epstein !
Well that was a lovely slice Of history and the social composition of the early 19th century American experience in New York. I very much enjoyed watching it. Thank you
