Jacques Louis David (1749—1825) was a very important painter during the late 18C and the early 19C painting. He was the master of Neo-classicism and later Romanticism. At time he was somewhat artistic Czar of the time. Neoclassicism was a ‘modernising’ artistic movement of the time after the decline of the aristocratic art of Rococo. In 1782 he became an Academician and in 1784 he returned to Rome to paint the Oath of the Horati (1785), an important painting in the history of painting. It was more like the underground art of its days. During the French Revolution, he became a Deputy and involved with the politics of the day. Many well-known painters of the early 19C were his pupils, including Gerard & Ingres. As a painter, his portraits were supreme. Due to the changing politics of France, he imposed self-exile and cut off from the main stream of Romanticism in France.
The staunch champion of French official art, Ingres began his career in the studio of the Classical painter David. After winning the Prix de Rome, he spent many years in Italy, where he discovered his peculiarly sensual ideal of beauty through a study of Renaissance masters, particularly Raphael. Patronized by Napoleon, be scrapped a reasonable living until his lifestyle was devastated by the fall of the Empire.
On his return to France, Ingres was acclaimed at the Paris Salon, and was plunged into rivalry with the Romantic painter Delacroix. Although extremely sensitive to the criticism he aroused, Ingres was delighted to find himself held up as the greatest exponent of Classicism. Now happily married by the second time, he was famous for his society portraits and erotic nudes. He died in Paris, at the age of 86.

The rise of the Renaissance in Italy and its major contributions to the rebirth of Europe. Includes key people, artwork techniques, and activities. SC State Standard 6-6.1 and 2
Jan van Eyck was one of the greatest revolutionaries in art. He radically changed the way in which men look at the natural world. His artistic achievements were well-known in Renaissance Italy. Vasari, who wrote about Van Eyck a hundred years later, wrongly attributed the discovery of oil painting to him. Only a few years after his death in 1441, Jan van Eyck was being hailed on both sides of the Alps as one of the greatest painter of the age.
Despite Van Eyck’s great fame, little is known of his life except for his last years. For the last 16 years of his life, he worked at the court of Philip the Good, The Duke of Burgundy. The Duke made use of his skills as both painter and diplomat, sending him on numerous secret missions.
The works of Jan van Eyck are celebrated for their visual splendor and precision of detail. Their brilliant colours and magnificent definition are due to Jan’s refinement of the oil-painting technique and died even before the great High Renaissance master painters were even born.
The life and works of Albrecht Durer (147-1528). The first self-conscious artistic genius in northern European art; painter, draughtsman, printmaker in both relief and intaglio, theoretician and would-be refromer of art. Through his woodcuts and engravings, most of them published by himself, he became an international figure, supplying iconographic models to artists throughout Europe and as far away as Persia, and setting new standards of technical mastery. From within his own German/Netherlandish Gothic heritage, with its interest in the particular, he sought to learn the general laws enshrined in Italian art; the laws of optics, the ‘rules’ of ideal beauty and harmony. His own work ultimately succeeded in synthesizing these two traditions….” The Yale Dictionary of Art & Artists.

He experimented in many media, and is as well-known for his delicate watercolours of animal and plant life as for the dramatic woodcuts and exquisite engravings on religious themes, which brought him fame in his own to,e/ His art is blend of Northern and Southern traditions, profoundly influenced by the Venetian painting he saw during his visits to the city.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
2. Who is Albrecht Durer?
Albrecht Durer is the greatest exponent of
Northern European Renaissance art. While an
important painter, in his own day Durer was renowned
foremost for his graphic works. Artists across Europe
admired and copied Durer's innovative and powerful
prints, ranging from religious and mythological
scenes, to maps and exotic animals. Durer was a
humanist and a creator. His awareness of his own
role as an artist is apparent in his frontal, Christ-like
Self Portrait, 1500, just one of many self portraits that
he painted in his career. More than simply producing
works for his own time, Durer saw his fame and his
contribution as enduring, and as part of history.

4. Durer’s biography
Albrecht Durer was the third son of
Albrecht Durer and Barbara Holfer. He was
one of their eighteen children.
Portrait Diptych

Parents (1490)
5. Albrecht Durer was born on May 21st
1471 in Imperial Free City of Nuremberg.
At the age of fifteen Durer was
apprenticed to the principal painter
of the town, Michael Wolgemut, a
prolific if undistinguished producer
of small works in the late Gothic
style. Durer learned not only
painting but also wood carving and
elementary copper engraving under
Wolgemut. At the end of his
apprenticeship in 1490 he travelled
(Wanderjahre). He practiced in
Colmar, Basel and in the Low
Countries (Holland) before he
returned to Nuremberg. From this
period, little of the work that can be
attributed to him with certainty
survives.

6. On July 9, 1494 Durer
was married, according
to an arrangement made
during his absence, to
Agnes Frey, the daughter
of a local merchant. His
relationship with his wife
is unclear and her
reputation has suffered
from a posthumous
assault by Durer's
friends. He did not
remain in Nuremberg
long; in the autumn of
1494 he travelled to Italy,

7. More than any other Northern
European artist, Durer was
engaged by the artistic
practices and theoretical
interests of Italy. He visited the
country twice, from 1494 to
1495 and again from 1505 to
1507, absorbing firsthand
some of the great works of the
Italian Renaissance, as well as
the classical heritage and
theoretical writings of the
region. The influence
of Venetian color and design
can be seen in the Feast of
8. Durer was back in
Nuremberg by mid-1507.
He remained in Germany
until 1520. His reputation
spread all over Europe. He
was on terms of friendship
or friendly communication
with all the masters of the
age, and Raphael held
himself honored in
exchanging drawings with
Durer.
Durer lived and worked in this house from 1509
to 1528. Now it’s a museum
9. Durer's
talent, ambition, and
sharp, wide-ranging
intellect earned him the
attention and friendship
of some of the most
prominent figures in
German society. He
became official court
artist to Holy Roman
Emperors Maximilian I
and his successor
Charles V, for whom
Durer designed and
helped execute a range
Emperor Maximilian
(1518)
10. After another journey to the
Netherlands Durer finally returned
home in July 1521, having caught an
undetermined illness which afflicted
him for the rest of his life.
Back in Nuremberg he began work on
a series of religious pictures. Many
preliminary sketches and studies
survive, but no paintings on the grand
scale were ever carried out. This was
due in part to his declining health, but
more because of the time he gave to
the preparation of his theoretical works
on geometry and
perspective, proportion and
fortification.
11. Durer’s influence on the European
artDurer developed a new
interest in the human
form, as demonstrated by
his nude and antique
studies. He was also one of
the first artists to depict
animals “photorealistically”.
“As I grew older, I realized
that it was much better to
insist on the genuine forms of
nature, for simplicity is the
greatest adornment of art”
Albrecht Durer
12. Durer’s influence on theory of art
He wrote Four Books of Human
Proportion (Vier Bücher von
menschlichen Proportion), only
the first of which was published
during his lifetime (1528), as
well as an introductory manual
of geometric theory for
students (Underweysung der
Messung, 1525), which
includes the first scientific
treatment of perspective by a
Northern European artist.
13. Durer’s influence on
mathematicsDescriptive geometry originated
with Durer in his introductory
manual of geometric theory for
students although it was only put
on a sound mathematical basis in
later works of mathematicians.
One of the methods of
overcoming the problems of
projection, and describing the
movement of bodies in space, is
descriptive geometry. Durer's
remarkable achievement was
through applying mathematics to
art, he developed such
fundamentally new and
important ideas within
mathematics itself.
14. Durer’s influence on the art of
fortification
In 1527 Durer published
another work, this time
on fortifications. There
were strong reasons why
he produced a work on
fortifications at this time,
for the people of
Germany were in fear of
an invasion by the Turks.
Many cities, including
Nuremberg, would
improve their
fortifications using the
methods set out by Durer
in this book.
15. Durer’s influence on the adoption of
Lutheranism in Nuremberg
In Nuremberg, a vibrant center of
humanism and one of the first to
officially embrace the principles of
the Reformation, Durer had access
to some of Europe's outstanding
theologians and scholars, including
Erasmus, Philipp Melanchthon, and
Willibald Pirkheimer, each captured
by the artist in shrewd portraits.
For Nuremberg's town hall, the
artist painted two panels of the
Four Apostles (1526), bearing texts
in Martin Luther's translation that
pay tribute to the city's adoption of
Lutheranism.
