Do you know who painted them?,Content,A Short History of Western Painting What is Western art? It is hard to give a precise definition. As there have been so many dif

7、ferent styles of Western art, it is impossible to describe them all in a short text. Perhaps the best way to understand Western art is to look at the development of Western painting over the centuries.,The Middle Ages (from the 5th to the 15th century) During the Middle Ages, the purpose of Western

8、art was to teach people about Christianity. Thus, artists were not interested in painting realistic scenes. Their works were often primitive and two-dimensional, and the main characters were often made much larger than everyone else to show their importance. This began to change in the 13th century

9、with Giotto di Bondone (1267-1337). While his paintings still had religious themes, they showed real people in a real environment. In particular, his paintings are set apart from other paintings by their realistic human faces and deep emotional impact.,The Renaissance (from the 14th to the 17th cent

10、ury) New ideas and values gradually replaced old ones from the Middle Ages. As a result, painters concentrated less on religious themes. They began to adopt a more humanistic attitude to life. An important breakthrough during this period was the use of perspective by Masaccio (1401-1428). Influentia

11、l painters such as Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519), Michelangelo (1475-1564), and Raphael (1483-1520) built upon Giotto and Masaccios innovations to produce some of the greatest art that Europe had ever seen.,Another innovation was the use of oil paints.

While painters as early as Da Vinci had used oil, this technique reached its height with Rembrandt (1606-1669), who gained a reputation as a master of shadow and light. In subject matter, the emphasis increasingly shifted from religious themes to people an

Others wanted paintings showing important historical events or stories from mythology. Finally, most clients wanted paintings that were beautiful and interestin

14、g to look at.,Impressionism (late 19th to early 20th century) The development of Western art slowed until the invention of photography in the mid-19th century. After that, paintings were no longer needed to preserve what people and the world looked like. Hence, painters had to find a new way of look

15、ing at their art. From this, Impressionism emerged in France. The name of this new movement came from the painting by Claude Monet (1840-1926) called Impression, Sunrise. In this work, Monets aim was to convey the light and movement in the scenethe subjective impression the scene gave himbut not a d

16、etailed record of the scene itself.,While many Impressionists painted scenes of nature or daily life, others, such as Renoir (1841-1919), focused on people. Unlike the cold, black-and-white photographs of that time period, Renoirs paintings are full of light, shadow, colour, and life. He sought to s

17、how not just the outer image of his subjects, but their inner warmth and humanity as well.,Modern Art (from the 20th century to today) After Impressionism, subsequent artists began to ask, What do we do next? Painters such as Picasso (1881-1973) tried to analyse the shapes which existed in the natur
