While all pieces of art have a purpose that represents the essence of the time period, some hold a larger grasp in the majority of the lives of others. For example, the catastrophic events that unraveled in the 1920’s have…
In the history of art, we have seen many paintings which share the same content, but were done by different artists in different movements. Each of the artists has a different style, different ways to observe what they see to translate into a painting. An example is the “The Regatta” by Theo van Rysselberghe in 1892, and the “Slave Ship” by Joseph Mallord William Turner in 1840.…
Goya who lived from (1746 – 1828) was regarded as one of the most (if not the important Romantic artist. He underwent a major transition in his life that reflected on his work. During his early career he was much more optimistic toward humanity. This optimism is evident in his early artwork that consisted of bright pastel colors (1). In his later work (including the time when The Third of May was being painted) his subject matter became much darker and dejected. This dark subject matter reflected Goya’s physical and mental ailments, his disappointment in the French brutality against the Spanish, and his “diminished hope for human progress” (3).…
But the most important event in my opinion was the newly created baroque style is because by looking at the pictures you can see technical brilliance. All paintings, sculptures, and architectures seems too harmonically joint together but what’s most interesting is this new three-dimensional effect never seen before which makes the paintings look both real and illusionary with remarkable visual effects. Baroque art seems to engage the viewer, both physically and emotionally by creating a highly developed naturalistic illusion’s. For example paintings and sculptures are added a dramatic lighting effects which creates a unique sense of almost theatricality effect just by looking at their movement of their…
Music has developed a lot over the years. Classical music has evolved in a more gradual manner with a number of smaller revolutionary steps along the way. In the 9th to 14th centuries the development of music was documented in a physical form. This was where music could now be communicated efficiently, and succeeding generations would know something about the music of their ancestors. There where demands of the church that required a musical notation, and so the earliest written music was largely in Church music called Hymns. The plainsong of this time was still singlehanded, but that’s when the new developments were starting to appear.…

1) “A Burial At Ornans”. About forty peasant mourners are depicted in this painting by the French painter Gustave Courbet. This work was done between 1849 and1850, around the period of the 1848 French revolution where art became oppositional to the idealistic portrayals of society. Courbet communicated a very insightful reasoning that somewhat introduced his style: “Since art is ideal, anything that is not art must be what is real”.…
The Second artist we’ll touch on in this period of Romanticism is Francisco Goya, one of my favorites. The Spanish painter was first enthusiastic about Napoleon’s appointment in France, but that quickly turned sour into a bitter hatred for the emperor. Goya detested Napoleon as did most Spaniards during this time, and as a result he painted a scene depicting the horrific events that occurred in Madrid in 1808. The two paintings were broken up into the first portraying the battle and the second showing the executions that had happened the following day. “The Third of May, 1808, is one of the greatest testaments to the horrors of war ever painted.”…
When i think of the Baroqu peroid and what I can compare it to, i think of a teenager. A teenager is that that awkward between stage of a child and adult. Not yet fully developed and prone to drastic changes spotaniously. This is, what i believe, exactly how it was with the Baroque Era of Music.…
The Baroque Era was a period for artistic style that used exaggerated motion and clear and easily interpreted detail to produce drama, tension, exuberance and grandeur in sculpture, painting, architecture, literature and dance and music. It started around 1600 in Rome, Italy and spread to most of Europe and ended around the 1750’s. The Baroque era was encouraged by the Roman Catholic Church, which had decided at the time of the Council of Trent, in response to the Protestant Reformation, should communicate religious themes in direct and emotional involvement. The aristocracy saw the Baroque Era as a means of impressing visitors and expressing triumphant power and control. The word baroque can simply mean that something is "elaborate", with many details, without reference to the Baroque styles of the 17th and 18th centuries. The Baroque Era changed drama, painting, sculpture, architecture, literature and philosophy and music drastically with new ideas and the introduction of new inventions to Europe and its spread to Italy.…
From the period of Renaissance art to the Impressionism, there are many art works related to the religious especially about Christian. Simultaneously, there are many paintings draw on Jesus Christ and related to his birth, crucifixion and resurrection. An Italian painter who call Giotto di Bondone creates the art work call “The Crucifixion” at 1312. He is one of the famous contributor to the art works at the period of Renaissance. The another art works would be discussing in this paper is call “The Yellow Christ” which painted by Eugène Henri Paul Gauguin at 1889. Paul Gauguin is a French artist paint with post-impressionism. To compare with the similarity and differences, the major themes of the two works of art by Gauguin and Giotto are similar…
After Peter Paul’s father being pronounced dead he was raised by his mother as a Catholic and was well aware of the bible's content. He excelled in Baroque style and 17th century arts. He then moved to Italy in 1600 and saw inspiration in paintings throughout Venice that caught his attention. He learned Roman and Greek art with taking what he could from Italian paintings. He learned from many Italian greats like Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael and Michelangelo who shaped his painting style. He was considered one of the most influential baroque painters ever. Peter Paul’s most famous works include: The Judgement of Paris, Raising of the Cross, and Massacre of the Innocents. All of Peter Paul’s most known and most impressive work all contain some sort of religious backgrounds and stories. Peter Paul was renowned as one of the leading voices in the Catholic style of artistry and in specific paintings. Peter Paul Rubens paintings are mostly influenced by his religious upbringing and growing up as a Catholic therefore his illustrations, mostly have a religious background story to them like in “Massacre of the Innocents.” Having a deep religious background influenced Peter Paul to write about biblical stories and learning different techniques from artist he looked up to like the Italian greats and other artists in the renaissance period. This helped prove the meaning of “Massacre of the Innocents” because this is Peter Paul’s biography and life and what allowed him to accomplish what he did in Baroque…
