The Romans created many forms of art including sculptures, paintings, architecture, and mosaics. Their sculptures were realistic in style compared to the idealized Greek sculptures that influenced them. Roman paintings included frescoes on walls and their iconic architecture featured arches, columns like Doric, Ionic and Corinthian, and structures such as aqueducts and stadiums. Mosaics were made with small tiles and often depicted Roman history and life.
The document outlines the history of Roman art from the Republican to Late Empire periods, noting their adoption and adaptation of Greek styles in sculpture, architecture, and other mediums. Major Roman innovations included concrete construction, which allowed for large structures like the Colosseum and Pantheon, as well as triumphal arches and aqueducts. As the empire declined, art took on new Christian influences and a return to archaic styles under Emperor Constantine.
The document provides an overview of classical period art from ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome. Egyptian art focused primarily on religious themes and depicting the afterlife to make the deceased's journey pleasant. Greek art had an enormous influence on cultures worldwide, particularly in sculpture and architecture. Key Greek artworks included sculptures like the Aphrodite of Knidos and temples at Delphi. Roman art incorporated styles from conquered territories and is best known for sculptures, architecture like aqueducts and theaters, and realistic paintings including landscapes and portraits.
The document provides an overview of ancient Egyptian art from the Predynastic and Early Dynastic Periods through the New Kingdom. It describes the major historical periods of ancient Egypt and highlights several key works that exemplify artistic conventions like composite view, hieratic scale, and registers. The document discusses the relationship between art, architecture, and expressions of power and authority. It also examines ideals of idealization versus naturalism and how the human form was depicted over time in ancient Egyptian art.
The Romanesque art document discusses Roman art from ancient Rome and the Roman Empire between the 3rd century BC to the 5th century AD. It was divided into Republican art with Greek influence and Imperial art from the 1st century BC to the 5rd century AD. Major Romanesque art forms included architecture, painting, sculpture and mosaics. Roman victory over Greece in 146 BC spread Roman artistic styles. Painting is considered the most important part of Romanesque art, though much is only known from artifacts preserved at Pompeii and Herculaneum after the volcanic eruptions. Other discussed Roman constructions included aqueducts, amphitheaters, circuses, castles and walls.
Roman houses ranged from multistory apartment buildings for the lower classes to large private homes called domi for wealthy patricians. Wealthy homes featured gardens, frescoes, and mosaics and were centered around an open-air atrium. Frescoes used techniques like trompe l'oeil, linear perspective, and chiaroscuro to create the illusion of depth and expand the interior space. Gardens provided an oasis and frescoes often depicted idyllic landscapes or Greek-inspired myths.
While Greek statuary was created to represent idealized human forms of athletes and gods, Ancient Roman sculpture represented real, ordinary people with their natural beauty and imperfections. The main purpose of the statuary was to immortalize, though many Greek and Roman statues were originally painted with bright colors which over the centuries lost the pigment. Greek sculptors derived the facial features from the idealized inner and intellectual characteristics, whereas the Romans inferred the personality from the physical features. As a very representative example, I suggest observing any bust of Vespasian, Roman Emperor depicted with each feature without any glorification. When comparing the statuary of the two great civilizations we can notice another significant difference. The traditions of the Roman Republic equate the nudity represented by the Greek sculpture as a dishonorable impudicity, more in favor of an iconography that represents the republican values of the citizenship.

Artists centered in the powerful city of Florence begin to radically change the course of Western art and set the stage for the later developments of Michelangelo, Leonardo, and Raphael.
Art history analyzes objects within their cultural contexts to understand perspectives, customs, and histories. It requires thorough examination of artifacts, religious beliefs, symbols, politics, and science. The goal is to comprehend objectives by appreciating the environments where works were created. Art historians use chronology, patrons, styles, iconography, formal evaluation, and bias awareness to interpret meanings dependent on eras.

Key Renaissance artistic innovations included the development of techniques like linear perspective, sfumato, and chiaroscuro. Famous Renaissance artists included Filippo Brunelleschi, Lorenzo Ghiberti, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Raphael. Their works emphasized realistic proportions, foreshortening, and secular themes. Renaissance architecture revived classical orders and symmetry while sculpture emphasized realistic portrayals of the human form. Overall, the Renaissance marked a shift from medieval to modern Western civilization.
The High Renaissance in Italy occurred from 1480-1520, principally in Rome where Popes spent large amounts of money commissioning artworks. This era saw a focus on realistic human figures through the study of anatomy as well as the spread of classical ideas.

The document provides an overview of the Italian Renaissance between 1350-1600. It describes the Renaissance as a period of cultural change and achievement that began in Italy and later spread to the rest of Europe. Some key points:
1) The Black Plague and political instability in the 14th century led to a recovery and rebirth of interest in classical antiquity which influenced politics, art, and humanism.
2) Italian city-states like Milan, Venice, and Florence prospered economically and played important political roles, lacking a strong central ruler.
3) Humanism emerged, based on the study of classical Greek and Roman works, which emphasized intellect, civic involvement, and the individual.
The document provides an overview of art and architecture in 15th century Florence during the early Renaissance period.

The document discusses key artists of the Early and High Renaissance periods in Italy such as Giotto, Masaccio, Donatello, Botticelli, da Vinci, Raphael, Michelangelo, and Titian. It describes their innovations in techniques like linear perspective, use of light and shadow, and more realistic human figures. These artists helped establish principles of Renaissance art that focused on naturalism and three-dimensional representations of space.
Roman architecture spanned from 753 BCE to 337 CE, progressing through several periods. Some notable examples include the Temple of Vesta from the Roman Republic in the 1st century BCE, the Ara Pacis altar from 13-9 BCE during the early empire, and the Pantheon's iconic dome structure built under Hadrian in 117-125 CE. Roman architectural styles evolved over this thousand-year time frame, seen in structures like temples, forums, baths, arches and more that incorporated innovative building techniques like vaults and domes.
Medieval art developed between 300-1400 CE, primarily sponsored by the Christian Church. Major art forms included architecture like cathedrals, sculpture, manuscript illumination, stained glass, and tapestries. Artists often remained anonymous, though some were identified like Gislebertus, a French sculptor from the 12th century. Stylistically, art progressed from early Christian to Carolingian, Romanesque, Byzantine, and Gothic styles as new architectural innovations influenced visual arts through the Middle Ages.
Neoclassicism and Romanticism were artistic periods between the late 18th and early 19th centuries that had distinct characteristics and elements. Neoclassicism took inspiration from Ancient Greek and Roman art, emphasizing historical accuracy and order. Romanticism was an emotional reaction that celebrated nature and heightened sensations through dramatic compositions. Both periods influenced painting, sculpture, and architecture styles during this time.
