SHORT HISTORY OFWESTERN PAINTING What is Western art?It is hard to give a precise definition.As there have been so many different styles of Western art,it is impossible to describe them all in a short text.Perhaps the best way to understand Westen art is to look at the development ofWestern painting over cemones The Middle Ages (from the5th to the 15th century) Durng me Agac tha pp Weiemart was to teach people about Christianity. Thus,artists were not interested in painting realistic scenes.Their works were often primilive 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 with Giotto di Bondone (1267-1337).While his paintings sfil had religious themes,they showed real people in a real environment.In particulat,his paintings are set apart from other paintinas bythoi eteme ddoan amotional impact. The Renaissance (lrom the 14th to the 17th century) affitude to life.An important breakthrough during this period was the use of perspective by Masaccio (1401-1428).Influential painters such as Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519). Michelangelo (1475-1564),and Raphael (1483-1520)built upon Giotto and Masaccio's innovations to produce some of the greatest art that Europe had ever seen. Another innovation was the use of oil paints.With theirdeep colours and realism,some of the best oil paintings look like photographs.Whie paintersasearly as Da Vincihad used oil, this technique reached its height with Rembrandt (1606-1669). who gained a reputation as amaster of shadow and light. In subject matter,the emphasis increasingly shifted from religious themes to people and the world around us.Kings, nobles, and people of high rank wanted to purchase accurate pictures of themselves and the people they loved Others wanted paintings showing important historical events or stories from mythology.Finally,most clients wanted paintings that were beautiful and interesting to look at.

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, Renoir's paintings are full of light,shadow,colour,and life.He sought to show not just the outer image of his subiects hut their inner warmth and humanity as well Modern Art (from the 20th century to today) Ailor lmpressionism subsequent artists bege o ask,"What do we do next?"Painters such as Picasso (1881-1973)tried to analyse the shapes which existed in the natural world but in a new way,with Cubism.Others gave their paintings a realistic but dream-like quality.Still others turned to abstract art.What they attempted to do was no longer show reality,but insteadto ask the question,"What is art?" deas and values gradually replaced old os iom the Middle Ages.As a result painters concentraled less on relgious themes.They began to adopt a more humanistic The Renaissance Impressionism Modern Art The Middle Ages religious themes Impresion,Sunrise The Middle Ages (5th to15th century AD) The Renaissance (14th to17th century AD) Impressionism (late 19th to early 20th century) Modern art (20th century to today) Time order Q:How many periods of the paintings are mentioned in this text?What are they?
