For the second week of May 2019 - we chose as our YT Video of the Week - the 12 minute long, promotional video by Dr. 240252 uploaded on Apr. 26 - 2019 - titled "Ja, Tamara - A Promotional Video." The title translates loosely to "I - Tamara".
The video starts with one of my most favorite Tangos - "Orchids in the Moonlight" composed by an American/Jewish composer - Henry Yeoman who came up with some other memorable, beautiful tunes used in a famous movie "Flying Down to Rio" from 1930's which still resonates with the viewers - till today.
For close to nine years - Dr.240252 meticulously researched the life and the influences on her creative works - of the Countess Tamara de Lempicka - an internationally famous painter of her Art Deco portraits the trademark of which is their high sensuality. Dr. 240252's biography of her life - was just published in Poland. She was born in Warsaw in 1899 and died in Quarnavaca (a resort close to Mexico City) in 1980.
In this short, promotional video of his new book Dr. 240252 skillfully highlights her tumultuous life of an internationally famous celebrity which was full of tragedies - richly interwoven with many triumphs and pleasures of many different kinds. In short - this beautiful and talented artist died alone in Quarnavaca (a mountain resort by Mexico City) while her paintings - today - easily fetch millions of dollars - each one.
At any rate - all of us will have a very good second week of May 2019. Thanks for clicking our YouTube channel tango3721 and we shall meet here - a week from today - same place - same time - same channel!
