Both of them have played an important role in the history of famous photography and the lives of famous photographers just like Henry Peach Robinson who was influenced by the school of pastoralism and Paul Strand who, on the other hand, was influenced by the school of modernism in photography. Later within the essay I explain and elaborate more on both photographers and their famous work. Pictorliast photography is a type of capturing images, which was discovered or first used in the late 1800s by a group of photographers who were later known as the “pictorliast”, whom decided to take a more artistic turn to photography. They started scratching the negatives and blurring some parts with a brush during the printing process so the end result will carry or represent their specific take on it. Because of this we know that they took photography and the
An even closer look would reveal that Edouard Manet was the first modernist painter along with Claude Monet during Impressionism. Modernism is more prominent in Paul Cézanne’s later works during Post-Impressionism. Impressionism and Post-Impressionism are the main influence behind Modernism because artists of that movement abandoned the traditional style of painting and in turn developed a whole new aspect to paint on canvas. “There are four basic aspects to the modernists’ aesthetic: A belief in progress through technological innovation and rational thought, an opposition to tradition or convention, skepticism, and a re-imaging of environment and willingness to be recreated by it” (Cavalletto). Edouard Manet first introduced the modernist style in his painting Le Déjeuner sur L’Herbe.

He kept on painting his style. This style of art came to be known as impressionism. Monet’s work changed the direction of art because the traditional method
Then they used a technical, if not scientific, methodology for painting the image captured on film. Observers could then react to the pure truth produced in the systematic process. Thomas Albright, an art critic for the “San Francisco Chronicle,” once said that “intervention between the painting and objects served to neutralize the original subject of the picture.” This art movement continued into the 1970s at its peak, and some artists continued the approach for the next few decades. Photorealism was international, not just limited to American artists. The leader of Photorealism in the 1960s was Richard Estes (b.
The author evidence in supporting her ideas is by narrating stories. The entire chapter is full of different stories about how the white pigment was discovered and what ingredients have been used to made it, stories about people’s adventures and their sacrifices in their journey to learn more about the pigments. Similar with chapter “White” is her chapter “The Paintbox”. Victoria Finlay discusses the importance of the color in the art world from the late medieval period to the present, and the people behind the paintings and their most secret techniques. However, the only difference between these two chapters is how she organized the material.
Evaluation of the works of Baroque and Romantic artists Introduction A painting is not just an work with paper and color; enormous ideals philosophy, mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, literature etc can be engraved in every part of it. Art is something which not only portrays the emotion or the creation of an artist but they also tell us about various timeline that human civilization gone through and the various changes that time brings in our culture and thinking. The baroque period and romantic period are two different time period; during this time artworks of the artists took turn from the traditional ways as well the thinking and the artistic views.

“Landscape of Orpheus and Eurydice” – Nicolas Poussin Artists from the Baroque period used Greek myths as sources for their art over and over again. In the following sections I am going to talk about a specific Painter named Nicolas Poussin (1549-1665) and his mythical Painting “Landscape with Orpheus and Eurydice”. To make it easier and better to understand this painting, I am going to give a short summary of the story behind the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice and afterwards I will take a closer look at the painting itself. Nicolas Poussin used the Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice as background for his painting “Landscape with Orpheus and Eurydice”. The story behind this Greek myth is about Orpheus, son of the God Apollo, and his beautiful wife Eurydice.
