OBJECTIVES PRE-TEST

INTRODUCTION GO AND SET

ACTIVITY POST-TEST
 INTRODUCTION

The word neoclassic comes from the Greek word neos

meaning new and the Latin word classicus which is
similar in meaning to the English phrase first class.
Neo-classicism is the name given to the western
movements in the decorative and visual arts.
Also, it applies to literature, theatre, music, and architecture that
draw inspiration from the classical art and culture of Ancient
Greece and Ancient Rome. Romanticism is a term loosely used to
designate numerous and diverse changes in the arts during a
period of more than 100 years (roughly, 1760–1870), changes that
were in reaction against Neoclassicism (but not necessarily the
classicism of Greece and Rome) or against what is variously called
the Age of Reason, the Augustan Age, the Enlightenment, or
18th-century materialism.
 How did the
NEOCLASSIC MOVEMENT

arts come about?

 DISCUSSION

Many artists during the mid-17th century profited much

from the nobles and the royals. They did this by catering
to the vanities and extravagance of the rich people
during those times as they were commissioned to paint
for them.
ART ELEMENTS & PRINCIPLES
 Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres (1780-1867) – French.

Unlike his teacher, David, Ingres was involved in

the Revolution. But he admired the post-revolution
governance of the Emperor Napoleon and the imposing
personality of the leader himself. As an innate gifted artist,
Ingres was granted scholarship with art studies in Rome,
and thereafter appointed as President of Ecole des Beaux-
Arts (the most prestigious university in France).
 In the Oath of the Horatii, the
patriotic three sons on the left firmly
saluted in the gesture of a gladiator who is
ready to die. Likewise, the gesture of old
philosopher Socrates strongly pointed
upward appeared very firmed to his belief
even in the face of death. The use of
chiaroscuro (the play of light and dark) is
subtly washed to emphasize the mood of
courage, patriotism, and brotherhood. The
space is put in almost as balance as to
colours and shapes. His central figure is
Oath of the Horatii always a man, who dominates the whole
scene.
 Isabel
In the Third of May 1808, he expressed his
emotions of disgust of humanity---a bloodbath perpetrated
by French soldiers on his beloved countrymen. The colors
suggest sheer horror and cold carnage. The spectacle of the
bizarre is the theme of most of his genres. In his famous
masterpiece, Isabel, composure of dignity and elegance in
shown.
 Although born to illustrious
parents, David preferred to work more with
the militant intellectuals who were to
overthrow the French monarchical system.
Fascinated and inspired by the past
cultures of the Romans and the Greeks,
David used his knowledge of the classical
culture to advance his political view against
the monarchy. His subjects are his ideal
heroes he wanted to be emulated by his
countrymen. The lines and forms of his
The Death of Socrates genre are in juxtaposition of vertical,
horizontal, and diagonal lines to convey the
theatrical element.
