This document discusses various historical artistic influences and styles. It begins by examining classical Greek and Roman art from 800 BC to 1453 AD, noting their influences on purity, mythology, and architecture. It then discusses the Renaissance from 1400-1530 AD and Michelangelo's David as a key example. Several modern examples taking inspiration from classical styles are provided. The document also summarizes artifacts at the British Museum and provides overviews of how Egyptian, African, and East Asian art influenced the Art Deco movement. Two artists, Gustav Klimt and Vincent van Gogh, are discussed in depth regarding Egyptian and Japanese influences on their respective works.

During the Renaissance period lots of changes were made within the world of art and the concept of it all. During that period so many new ways and concepts of how art was done, whether it be sculptures, paintings, or any other type of art. Renaissance art differed from the prior period, because a lot more architecture was being created and had a whole new perspective and deeper sense of dimensional effects.
The work between an Italian Renaissance artist and a Northern European Renaissance artist contrast by, focusing on the different details and abilities when it came to their art. Italian artist liked to focus and understand more of the human anatomy aspects of the art, and the northern focused more on surface details and naturalism. The northern also like to focus on portraits, while the Italian focused more on classical mythology. The Italian and northern European artist compared by, both focusing on religious scenes of art and glorifying the power of God. They both also focused on making paintings and different art more realistic.
The different concerns and heritages of the Italian and Northern Renaissance artists that resulted in the different characteristics would be, the way both of them viewed and had a perspective on how their own art should be. Both worshiped and focused a lot towards the higher power and God, but at the same time even has nudity within their different artworks.

Within art, the earliest century of the Renaissance has many differences from previous periods of time. During the Renaissance time period, the artist focused on recreating nature in the form of art and primarily focused on the underlying beauty of nature and how nature plays a vital role in the day to day life. Renaissance art is one of the only types of art that does not focus or generate ideas from religion but rather focuses on the idea of real-life and the linear perspective. The Early Renaissance began in Italy, which led to the realism aspect that would eventually become the center of Renaissance art. Beginning in the 14th century, the artist Masaccio was the most popular artist during this time. Masaccio became famous for his work within churches, specifical.

5. ART DECO AND ANCIENT ART
Art deco was strongly influenced by many areas of the world, these
influenced the western world to take their styles and create a new style.
Africa Influenced art deco
with its very different
styles of drawing and the
colours they used,
however Africa and
Mesoamerica influenced
the American art deco
more.
Mesoamerica was a
geographical region which
was near to America and
ends near Costa Rica.
They took the Aztec style
and had influential
architectural styles that
effected American interior
and exterior design.
Egyptian Artefacts influenced
Art Deco the most in the UK
and Paris as around the time
the movement flourished
when Tutankhamun's tomb
was dug up in 1922. Many
things were dug up from
chariots, mummy cases and
gold jewellery, of which had
new styles and colours that
influenced Art Deco.
East Asia influenced Art Deco
but mainly American Art Deco,
artists loved the glamour and
grace created in East Asia. It had
a slenderness about the beauty
of the Geisha was very different
to much of the artistry in the
UK. Their brightly coloured
clothing still inspires the West
today.
6. ARTIST INFLUENCED BY EGYPTIAN
ART
Gustav Klimt, an Austrian artist had a
clear Egyptian influence on his work. A
country whose ancient history and culture
inspired some of Klimt’s most celebrated
art works. This inspired the ‘Golden
Phase’ where he utilised golden leaf which
was one of the most prevalent colours
from the ancient Egyptian era.
This work is called Adele Bloch-Bauer
(1907) using oil, silver and gold on
canvas. There are many shapes and lines
that you can tell the inspiration is from,
Egypt.
7. VAN GOGH AND JAPANISME
Van Gogh took influence for some of his works from Asian
cultures, specifically Japan. Japanisme refers to the influence of
Japanese culture on the western world.
The style came about around 1872, it was adopted by many
artists and can be clearly identified in many artists work around
the time.
Van Gogh used Ukiyo-e which refers to the work of the
common people, the influence came about due to the
emergence of exported Japanese art, specifically Japanese
ceramics. After years of Japanese seclusion more and more
foreign ships visited Japan. Bringing back many Japanese
artefacts that were completely different to the work of artists in
western culture.
8. VINCENT VAN GOGH- THE
BLOOMING PLUM TREE
A key piece representing Van
Gogh's art work from the time that
clearly has a strong Japanese
influence was The Blooming Plum
Tree (1887).
It is made with oil on canvas, and is
an impressionist piece. It was
influence with the use of colours
keeping to the palette of reddish
brown tones in the tree and reds,
yellows and greens in the
background.
9. JAPANESE CULTURAL INFLUENCE
TODAY
Japanese cultural influence is still strong
today with western cultures trying to
recreate their own styles in textiles,
architecture and graphics today.
The elegance and uniqueness is still
admired today and is taken into by the
rich and couture fashion of something
representing beauty and elegance.
10. ARTIST COMPARISON
There are some similarities and differences between the two works I
have looked at as they both have a connection of influences from
ancient art and similarities in their work.
Van Gogh's Blooming Plum Tree was made in 1887 and Gustav Klimt's
Adele Bloch-Bauer was made later in 1907. So its possible that the
paints and textures used in Klimt's painting were less readily available
at the time of Van Gogh's piece and the idea of using golds and
silvers on a painting was much more uncommon until the Egyptian art
came into play, which is where this influence is likely to have come
from.
Van Gogh uses impressionism still in his style of work, whereas
Gustav has another more recognisable look to his work, however all
artwork is unoriginal as it will be taken from something before it
whether it has an obvious connection or one that is much more subtle
like the Egyptian influence in Klimt’s work.
