Lesson Artwork and Artist of

1 Renaissance and Baroque
Periods
Renaissance Period (1400-1600)

Renaissance was the duration of financial progress. The duration

stirred enthusiasm for the study of ancient philosophy and creative values.
Italian Renaissance commenced in the late 14th century. It used to be
an era of notable artistic and mental achievement with the start of secular
art. The focal point was on sensible and humanistic art. Renaissance artwork
was once characterized via correct anatomy, scientific perspective, and deeper
landscape. Renaissance painters depicted real-life figures and their
sculptures had been naturalistic pics of human beings.
Architecture for the duration of this period used to be characterized by using
its symmetry and balance. As the classical Greeks believed in the harmonious
development of the individual via a sound mind, with the aid of the practice
of athletics, the Renaissance held up the best of the well-rounded man,
knowledgeable in a quantity of fields such as philosophy, science, arts,
including portray and tune – and who applies his information to productive
and creative activity.
The Renaissance has impacted the world in several ways. Two of those
ways are by the art and church. They influenced the world through art by
having new techniques for artists to use to create paintings and by having art
spread from Italy to Northern Europe. Which leads to the popularity of the
movement.
Famous Renaissance Artworks and Artists

Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni (1475-1564)

Michelangelo used to be an Italian sculptor, painter, architect, and
poet. He was once regarded the biggest residing artist in his lifetime, and ever
since then he was considered as one of the best artists of all time. A number
of his works in paintings, sculpture, and structure rank among the well-
known in existence. Among his magnificent works as sculptor had been the
following: Pieta, Bacchus, Moses, David, Dying Slave, Dawn and Dusk. Two
of his exceptional acknowledged works, The Pieta and David, have been
sculpted before he grew to become thirty. He also created two of the most
influential works in fresco in the history of Western art: the scenes from
Genesis on the ceiling and the Last Judgment on the altar wall of the Sistine
Chapel in Rome.
 “Pieta”

In Pieta, Michelangelo approached the situation which till then had

been given form normally from north of the Alps, where the portrayal of pain
had constantly been related with the concept of redemption as represented by
means of the seated Madonna preserving Christ’s body in her arms.
Michelangelo convinces himself and his spectators of the divine
satisfactory and the value of these figures by using means of earthly and ideal
beauty, but of course, these are human standards.

Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci (1452- 1519)

Leonardo Da Vinci was a painter, architect, scientist, and
mathematician. He was popularized in existing instances via the novel and
movie, “Da Vinci Code.” He is known as the remaining “Renaissance man” due
to the fact of his intellect, interest, talent and his expression of humanist and
classical values. He is extensively considered to be one of the biggest painters
of all time and perhaps the most diversely talented individual to have ever
lived. His properly known works were: The Last Supper (the most reproduced
religious portray of all time), and the Mona Lisa (the most famous and most
parodied portrait.) His other works were: The Vitruvian Man, The Adoration
of the Magi, and the Virgin of the Rocks. (Wikipedia)

“Monalisa”
by Leonardo da Vinci

“Mona Lisa” stems from a description with the aid of Renaissance art historian
Giorgio Vasari, who wrote, “Leonardo undertook to paint for Francesco del
Giocondo the portrait of Mona Lisa, his wife.” Mona, in Italian, is a well-
mannered structure of address originating as Madonna- similar to Ma’am,
madamme, or My Lady in English. This grew to become Madonna and its
contraction Mona. The title of the painting, although traditionally spelled
“Mona”, is also generally spelled in Modern Italian as “Monna Lisa”.
Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino (Raphael) (1483-1520)
Raphael used to be an Italian painter and architect of the High
Renaissance period. His work was admired for its readability of structure and
ease of composition and for its visible fulfillment of the decoding the Divine
and incorporating Christian doctrines. Together with Michelangelo and
Leonardo da Vinci, he shaped the common trinity of superb masters of that
period. His fundamental contributions to art have been his special
draftsmanship and compositional skills. His famous works were: The Sistine
Madonna, The School of Athens, and The Transfiguration.

“The Transfiguration”
by Raphael

The Transfiguration was once Raphael’s remaining painting on which

he labored on up to his death. Commissioned by way of Cardinal Giulio de
Medici, the late Pope Clement VII, the portray was once conceived as an
altarpiece for the Narbonne Cathedral in France. The painting exemplifies
Raphael’s development as an artist and the culmination of his career. The
challenge is combined with an additional episode from the Gospel in the
decrease part of the painting.

Donato di Niccolo di Betto Bardi (Donatello) (1386- 1466)

Donatello used to be one of the Italian wonderful artists of the period.
He was an early Renaissance Italian sculptor from Florence. He is regarded
for his work in bas- relief, a structure of shallow comfort sculpture. His works
blanketed the following statues and relief: David, Statue of St. George,
Equestrian Monument of Gattamelata, Prophet Habacuc, and The Feast of
Herod.

“David”

At the time it was created, it was the first known free- standing nude statue
produced since ancient times. Renaissance art is the art of calm and beauty.
Its creations are perfect they expose nothing compelled or inhibited, uneasy
or agitated. Each form has been born easily, free and complete. Everything
breathes satisfaction, and we are honestly not fallacious in seeing in this
heavenly calm and content the very best inventive expression and spirit of
that age.

Baroque Art (1600-1800)

The term Baroque was once derived from the Portuguese word “barocco”
which means “irregularly fashioned pearl or stone.” It describes a pretty
complicated idiom and focuses on painting, sculpture, as properly as
architecture.
After the idealism of Renaissance, and the slightly forced nature of
“mannerism”, Baroque artwork above all displays the tensions of the age
exceedingly the wish of the Catholic Church in Rome to reassert itself in the
wake of the Protestant
Reformation which is almost the identical with Catholic- Reformation Art of
the period.
Although constantly in hostilities with the simple, clear, and geometric
concepts of classicism, the Baroque existed in varying levels of intensity, from
a simple animated motion of strains and surfaces, to a rich and dynamic
wealth.
Baroque was once a length of creative styles in exaggerated motion,
drama, tension, and grandeur. The style started out in Rome, Italy and unfold
to most of Europe.
The Roman Catholic Church incredibly encouraged the Baroque style
to propagate Christianity whilst the aristocracy used Baroque style for
architecture and arts to galvanize visitors, categorical triumph, power, and
control.
Baroque painting illustrated key factors of Catholic dogma, both immediately
in Biblical works or circuitously in imaginary or symbolic work. The gestures
are broader than Mannerist gestures: less ambiguous, less arcane, and
mysterious.
Baroque sculpture, normally larger than lifestyles size, is marked with
the aid of a similar sense of dynamic movement, alongside with an energetic
use of space.
Baroque structure used to be designed to create spectacle and illusion.
Thus the straight strains of the Renaissance have been changed with flowing
curves

Famous Baroque Artworks and Artists

Michelangelo Merisi or Amerighi da Caravaggio (1571- 1610)

He was once higher recognized as Caravaggio. He was once an Italian

artist who desired to deviate from the classical masters of the Renaissance.
He was an outcast in his society, due to the fact of his very own actions and
the lack of modesty and reverence for spiritual topics in his very own
paintings. Perhaps he began out as a professional in his paintings of
nonetheless life, especially of fruits. Studies of single figures followed, however
they are clumsier than the fruit which offers their get pleasure from of
originality and charm. Caravaggio’s fashions at this period had been either
himself or young individuals who have an air of being promising but wicked.
Among his famous artwork were: Supper at Emmaus, Conversion of St. Paul,
and Entombment of Christ.

“Conversion of St. Paul”

Gian Lorenzo Bernini (1598-1680)

Bernini was an Italian artist and the first Baroque artist. He practiced
architecture, and sculpture, painting, stage design, and was additionally a
playwright. He used to be also the ultimate in the list of the staggering
widespread geniuses. As a prodigy, his first artworks date from his 8th
birthday. Among his early works were: The Goat Amalthea with the Infant
Jupiter and a Faun, Damned Soul, and the Blessed Soul. He made a sculpture
of “David” was for Cardinal Borghese which is strikingly distinct from
Michelangelo’s David because it suggests the differences between
Renaissance and the Baroque periods. He used to be the best Baroque
sculptor and architect as seen in his diagram of the Piazza San Pietro in the
front of the Basilica. It is one of his most innovative and profitable
architectural designs. The well-known “Ecstasy of St. Teresa” was his best
achievement and the Colonade of the Piazza of St. Peter’s Rome.

Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn (1606-1669)
Rembrandt was an exceptional Dutch realist, painter and etcher. He is
generally regarded as one of the best painters and printmakers in European
art. He followed no particular faith, however was once interested in non-
secular values and often chooses non secular subjects. Rembrandt shares
with Rubens the revolution whereby portray came to depict the more private
elements of the painter: his very own home and his family. No artist has
painted himself as often as did Rembrandt. His thought of himself continued
to deepen in grasp and subtlety, while his method grew more daring. His well-
recognized work used to be his “Self-portrait in Old Age”.

Rembrandt had produced over 600 paintings, nearly 400 etchings, and
2000 drawings.

Diego Velasquez (1599- 1660)

Velasquez of Spain developed out of the Baroque. He was one of the
finest masters of composition and one of the most vital painters of the Spanish
Golden Age. He worked out options to pictorial issues of layout that transcend
the style of any period. Velasquez used to be the case of a painter who
observed his avocation nearly at the very start of his career. The passion for
still lifestyles frequently emerges in Velasquez’s art. His famous works were:
The Surrender of Breda, Las Meninas (The maids of honour), Los Barachos
(The Drinker), and Maria Theresa

“Las Meninas (The maids of Honour)”

by Velasquez
Image from CCP Library
(Image from Treasures of the World book,
by Golden Press, Inc. Copyright 1961)

He created this work four years earlier than his death and served as an
gorgeous example of the European baroque length of art. Margaret Theresa,
the eldest daughter of the new Queen, seems to be the issue of Las Meninas
but in searching at a number of viewpoints of the painting, it used to be
uncertain as to who or what was once the genuine subject; it possibly the
royal daughter or the painter himself.
