This painting is able to redefine the “still life” painting; Max’s piece is abounding with movement and energy seen most easily in the choice of color as well as brush stokes. In order to analyze a piece of artwork, it is imperative to understand where and how the creator was raised. Peter
Painting was done using fingers, knives brushes and other tools that would enable memorization and decoration to stick to the minds of the viewers. For this, paintings were used as sources of entertainment and worshipping. Throughout our lives, we have had a chance to view a few paintings and they have always had a memorable vision but many people have not had the correct interpretation of the past paintings. One of the remarkable painters of the past is Juan Valdes Leal. This paper is focused on writing about
EXHIBIT 65: GAULLI, “Triumph of the Name of Jesus”, 1674-79, ceiling fresco. EXHIBIT 42: CORREGGIO, “Assumption of the Virgin”, 1522-30, fresco. Giovanni Battista Gaulli, also known as Il Baciccio was a famous painter in the Baroque and Catholic Counter-Reformation period. His work of art “Triumph of the Name of Jesus” deals with classical and tenebrism themes, using light and dark contrasts with illusionistic perspective painting. “The nave fresco, with its contrast of light and dark, spills dramatically over its frame, then turns into sculptured figures, combining painting, sculpture, and architecture” (Janson, p.673).
When Leonardo was in his teens, Verrocchio agreed to teach Leonardo bout painting. Leonardo wanted to be different than other artists and found beauty in nature that influenced him to start to draw and paint realistic. He also drew machines to fly in the air and drew sails on the sea. He also discovered many
The semesters that he spent in art school were ones of development and scrutiny. A broad spread of courses were taken in the history of Western Art. Here he gained knowledge of the works of Italy’s finest sculptors, Michelangelo and also the works of the Florentine, Leonardo Da Vinci. During the eighteen months at the school he developed his critical thinking. His study in period courses included Romanesque Art 1050 to 1200, the colorful points of the Renaissance, a look at contemporary artists of London, the Impressionists and Picasso.
Leonardo Da Vinci was engrossed in the study of the arts at a young age. He received no formal education beyond the basics of reading, math, and writing. Da Vinci's father helped pursue his art by introducing him to a well-noted painter, Andrea del Verrocchio, of Florence. 1482 Da Vinci began to paint his own commissioned work called The Adoration of the Magi. He ended up relocating to Milan to work for Sforza Clan, as an engineer, architect, painter, and designer, never getting to finish the piece.
The artist combines iconography reminiscent his catholic upbringing and homosexuality throughout his work as his primary motif. The conflation of these symbols is particularly present within the photographic-performance piece
When I first had a chance to sit and analyze the sculpture, I began with a clear understanding of what the piece meant and the explicit function it portrayed. However, the longer I viewed the sculpture the more the implicit purpose of the sculpture began to become visible. This final report will entail: the double purpose that the sculpture encompasses, the struggle between the two and my personal reflection on the assignment. The first purpose that will be examined is the explicit purpose of The Family Group that is based on the context of the sculpture, the text on the sculpture and the background of Charles Umlauf.
Artwork is a form of self-expression from an artist based on life experience, or on something that the artist feels strongly about (Berenson, 87). The product of art can help others with similar experiences but not able to express the same feeling themselves. From the product of art, people can start drawing excitement, purpose as well as encouragement about the real thing being expressed. Through a piece of art, the artist can communicate a purpose, an emotion or an idea in their work. In this research paper, I compare two pieces of artwork; Madonna and child with the saints by Giovanni Bellini and Madonna and child with the two angels done by Fra Filippo Lippi.

Perspective is considered one of the most important aspects of Renaissance art. Artists such as Masaccio, Leonardo Da Vinci and Raphael made the use of this device in many of their work. Thanks to Filippo Brunelleschi, who ‘invented’ and developed this technique called one point linear perspective. The intention of perspective in Renaissance art is to depict reality, reality being the ‘truth’. By simulating the three dimensional space on a flat surface, we in fact incorporate this element of realism into it.
“Visual Arts cultivate thinking, innovation and collaboration.” As I write this paper today, I realized how each of us analyse everything in our lives without even meaning to do so. The museum that I decided to visit virtually was the Offizi Gallery in Italy. Located in Florence, this gallery included numerous paintings, sculptures and ceramics. The art piece that I have decided to write an analysis on today is The Birth of Venus by Sandro Botticelli.
