welcome to the prehistoric era in this
period
paintings were found inside the caves
and believed to be their way of
communicating with each other
it may also be for religious or
ceremonial purposes
and more of an artifact of
archaeological evidence
than a true picture of humans first
created art
their sculptures were believed to be a
product a result
of natural erosion and not of human
artistry
materials used in sculptures vary
according to region and locality
while carving may have mythological
religious significance
architecture from the early age develop
a form based on megaliths or big rocks
although these structures that survive
from pre-history
might not be what we normally think of
as architecture
these buildings are still a wonder today
through the mysteries of their meaning
intricacy
and ingenuity
oh there you are welcome to ancient
egypt
the paintings of ancient egypt were
believed to give importance to life
after death
and the preservation of the knowledge of
the past
most paintings were stylized symbolic
and show a profile view of an animal or
a person
the main colors used in this period were
red
black blue gold and green from mineral
pigments that can withstand
strong sunlight without fading
their sculptures were believed to have
symbolic elements such as forms
hieroglyphics relative size location
materials color actions and gestures
were widely used
their tombs require the most extensive
use of sculpture
this includes symbolism to represent
their gods as composite human bodies
most of the gods were shown larger than
humans
ancient egyptian architecture were
developed during the pre-dynastic period
of 4000 bc
characteristics of egyptian architecture
include thick and stable sloping walls
with few openings
exterior and interior walls along with
columns and piers were covered with
hieroglyphics
and pictorial frescoes with carvings
painted in brilliant colors
ornamentations were symbolic like the
scarab or sacred beetle
the solar disk the vulture and common
motive such as
palm leaves lotus flowers and papyrus
plants
temples were aligned with astronomically
significant events using precise
measurements
like solstices and equinox welcome
to classical grease
paintings during this period were most
commonly found in vases
panels and tombs they depicted natural
figures with dynamic compositions
and reveal a grasp of linear perspective
and naturalistic representation most of
the subjects were mythological figures
battles and everyday scenes the most
common methods of greek painting are
fresco or water-based painting
and encaustic or wax-based painting
sculptures were tense and stiff and
their bodies were hidden within
unfolding ropes or drapings
during the early times but it had
finally evolved and showed all the
points of human anatomy and proportion
after three centuries of experiments
their architecture showed temples
consisting of
central shrine or room in an aisle
surrounded by rows and columns
these buildings were designed in one of
the three architectural styles or orders
the doric ionic and corinthian
now let's roam around rome roman
paintings were mostly copied or imitated
from hellenic greek
paintings roman paintings have a wide
variety of subjects
including animals everyday life still
life
mythological subjects portraits and
landscapes
which is the main innovation of roman
painting from greek painting
sculptures were made of monumental
terracotta
they did not attempt to compete with the
free standing greek works of history and
mythology
but rather produced beliefs in the great
roman triumphal columns
with continuous narrative reliefs around
architectures from this era were sturdy
stone structures
both to use and to perpetuate their
glory
the emperors erected huge halls in
arenas for public games
baths and possessions with gigantic
arches of stones
bricks and concrete or with barrel
vaults
this time let's visit the byzantine
empire
byzantine paintings were lively styles
which had been
invented in greek and rome but this time
for christian subjects
by the 11th century the greek and
oriental styles seemed to blend together
in splendid their sculptures were
religious and taken from everyday life
scenes and motives from nature
animals were used as symbols such as
doves
deer and pea fowl while some had
acrostic signs that contained a great
theological intent or significance
architecture from this period had a lot
in common with early christian
architecture
where mosaic decoration was perfected as
was the use of clare story to bring
light in from high windows
the byzantine era's advancement in
developing the dome
created a new style in global
architecture
brace yourselves as we take a glimpse of
the romanesque style
paintings during this time have a
remarkable variety
of artistry where mosaics on the walls
of the churches
follow a strict frontal pose with
modeling and treatment of faces
that follow byzantine convention while
refreshingly decorative feeling
came from southern french styles
it showed most arabic influence or
arabized influence
through elongated oval faces large
staring and fierce eyes
long noses figures against flat colored
bands with heavy outlining
their sculptures were pieces of
reliquaries outer frontals
crucifixes and devotional images small
individual works of art were generally
made of costly materials
for royal and aristocratic patrons
lightweight devotional images were
usually carried
during possessions both inside and
outside the churches
architecture from this period showed
doorways romance churches
that were often grand sculpted door
openings wood or metal doors were
surrounded by elaborate stone sculptures
arranged in zones to fit architectural
elements castles were greatly
outnumbered by churches
romanesque style in england was
traditionally referred to as
norman architecture and we are down to
our last destination
let us experience the artistry of the
gothic style
gothic paintings have been confined to
the illumination of manuscript pages
and the paintings of frescoes on the
walls of the churches
that were of cosmopolitan style in
elegant and sophisticated manner
the subjects of their paintings usually
depicted popular legends
and loved stories with patterns like
male floor or
thousand flowers showed and influenced
which may have been due to the crusades
stained glass windows were created to
transform the vast stone interiors
with warm colors to instruct christians
in their faith
its sculptures had a greater freedom of
style they no longer lay closely against
the wall
but began to project outward
figures were given their own particular
attitudes instead of being set into
particular patterns
but were more lively and realistic at
the same time
architecture from this period included
two new devices such as
the pointed arch which enabled builders
to construct much
higher ceiling vaults and stone vaulting
holed in a network of stone ribs which
were supported by peers and clustered
pillars
these elements together formed a
structurally and aesthetically
integrated system or style
which made up the primary engineering
innovation and design component
of gothic architecture hello art smarts
