Art Appreciation What is Art History? Gardner’s “Art Through the Ages” Introduction

What we consider art: Architecture Sculpture Pictorial Arts (painting, drawing, print making, photography) Craft Arts (objects of utility; ex. Ceramics, jewelry, textiles) Machine and machine produced objects belong to the history of technology

Historical categories historians use to arrange objects in time: Chronology (date/how old is it?) Provenance (place of origin/region) Style (period or culture/”ism” Iconography and subject matter (portrait, landscape, historical, genre, still life etc) Attribution (who made it) Who paid for it? (patrons) Meaning, cause, context

Chronology Measuring scale of historical time Art looks different from one period to the next.

Provenance Classification of place by origin Style can have regional variations Can allow us to see the spread of certain styles to various regions

Style and Stylistic Change Time period when a work of art was made has everything to do with its style (look) Style of a work of art is a function of its historical period

Iconography and Subject Matter Iconography literally means “writing of images” Symbols can be derived from images, and an image may have symbolic significance What the work of art is about, the story or narrative, scene presented, person involved, environment and its details

Pictorial subject matter can be broadly separated into Religious Historical Mythological Genre (scenes from everyday life) Portrait Landscape Still Life

Who made it?/Attribution Documentary evidence: signatures, dates on work and artists own writings.

School: often, not always, artists are influenced by their masters, and then influence or are influenced by fellow artists working in similar styles at the same time or place (this is a chronological and stylistic classification with regards to place/origin)

Who paid for it? Did someone commission the artist to create the work? (patron)

Architecture: Involves both the sensibilities of a sculptor and painter and must be able to use the tools and instruments of a mathematician.

Categories and terms in Sculpture Relief: figures projecting from a background from which they are a part of High-Relief vs. Low (bas) relief In the round

More on sculpture…. Subtractive: carving, reduction of original mass Additive: built up (usually clay), make a shape, create a mold

Words art Historians use: Form & Composition Material & Technique Line Color Texture Space, Mass, Volume Perspective & Foreshortening Proportion & Scale Carving & Casting Relief Sculpture (high, low)

Rubens, Lion Hunt, 1617 (example of foreshortening)

Lorrain, Embarkation of the Queen, 1648 (example of perspective)
