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 some what 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 Horatii (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.

Rembrandt van Rijn (1606-69) was born in Leydon, Holland, the son of a miller. He spent a year at Leyden University. Later he set up shop in Leyton and became a follower of Caravaggio. His earlier known works known to us are dated in 1626. His paintings is well-known for the contrast between light and darkness, just as Caravaggio. After he became famous his works were sought after all over Europe. Rembrandt flourished and spent a fortune acquiring artistic curiosities.
Baroque art and architecture, the visual arts and building design and construction produced during the era in the history of Western art that roughly coincides with the 17th century. The earliest manifestations, which occurred in Italy, date from the latter decades of the 16th century, while in some regions, notably Germany and colonial South America, certain culminating achievements of Baroque did not occur until the 18th century. The work that distinguishes the Baroque period is stylistically complex, even contradictory. In general, however, the desire to evoke emotional states by appealing to the senses, often in dramatic ways, underlies its manifestations. Some of the qualities most frequently associated with the Baroque are grandeur, sensuous richness, drama, vitality, movement, tension, emotional exuberance, and a tendency to blur distinctions between the various arts.

Los Angeles County Museum of Art, LACMAJerry Daperro
Although the museum is one of the youngest in the United States, it is fairly large and comprehensive museum, a significant representation of European art, ranging from antiquity to the present day. The museum was inaugurated only in 1965. However, a large part of the collection came from the Los Angeles Museum of History, Science and Art, which was established a century earlier. The museum is also known for its Modern art items as well.
The presentation talks about Art during the Renaissance Period. It includes background of Art during this time, the famous artists and some of their works.

2. Baroque Artists
Bernini
Cuyp Baroque - The art style or art movement of
the Counter-Reformation in the seventeenth
Guer century. Although some features appear in
Rembrandt Dutch art, the Baroque style was limited
mainly to Catholic countries due to
Reni sponsorship by the Catholic Church, trying
to return to tradition and spirituality. It is
Rubens a style in which painters, sculptors, and
architects sought emotion, movement, and
Vela variety in their works. Baroque Art tends to
be less complex, more realistic and more
emotionally affecting
3. Bernini
The Ecstasy of Saint
Therese – Saint Therese and
the angel are situated in a
framed niche lighted from an
unidentifiable source. The
sensual character of the
ecstasy aroused erotic
associations and generated
moral reservations from the
second half of the eighteenth
century.
4. Bernini
The Throne of Saint Peter – The
throne symbolizes the power of the
Pope. The light coming from a
natural source (a window) is part of
the composition
7. Rembrandt
Supper at Emmaus –
During the 1630s
Rembrandt used the
Bible as a source for
dramatic motifs. In his
middle phase he turned
to more calm and
intimate subjects,
particularly episodes
from the life of the
Holy Family.
9. Rembrandt
Man in a Golden Helmet –
Rembrandt's portrait was
admired by Impressionist
painters as a model example
of their own view of art. It
has lost none of its
popularity, despite
commercial exploitation.
10. Rembrandt
The Nightwatch –
It is a "Doelen"
piece or group
portrait in which the
captain can be seen
in the foreground
wearing black and
the lieutenant
wearing yellow.
The painting
includes the entire
repertoire of portrait
poses and gestures
from Rembrandt's
store of figures.
11. Rembrandt
Self-portrait – Rembrandt
represented himself more
than a hundred times in
drawings, etchings and
paintings. Every change of
fortune and impact of time
and emotion was recorded.
Here at age fifty-three.
12. Reni
Massacre of the Innocents –
Reni was particularly interested
in achieving a balance between
movement and static structure.
Reni also sought to achieve
equilibrium in his expression of
effects and the distribution of
color accents
16. Rococo Artists
Rococo - An eighteenth century art style
Amigoni which placed emphasis on portraying the
Boucher carefree life of the aristocracy rather
than on grand heroes or pious martyrs.
Fragonard Love and romance were considered to
be better subjects for art than historical or
Goya religious subjects are. The style was
characterized by a free, graceful
Guardi movement; a playful use of line; and
Tiepolo delicate colors. Rococo was centered in
France, and is generally associated with
Watteau the reign of King Louis XV. It is a light,
elaborate and decorative style of art
20. Fragonard
The Love Letter – This
picture exemplifies
Fragonard's feeling for
color, his sensitive
handling of effects of
light, and his
extraordinary technical
ability. The attire of the
woman seated at her
writing table must have
been the height of
fashion at the time this
painting was made.
22. The Doge on the Bucentaur at San Niccolò del
Guardi Lido – recounts the various episodes in the
election of Doge Alvise Mocenigo in 1763. An
observant and picturesque record of the
traditional Venetian festival, which was part
official ceremony.
23. The Three-Arched Bridge at Cannaregio –
Guardi Guardi did not always choose the most famous
spots or buildings in Venice. There is not an
important public building in sight in this
impoverished quarter.
24. Tiepolo
The Martyrdom of
St. Bartholomew –
Tiepolo fame rests
chiefly on his huge
frescos but he should
also be remembered as
an extremely versatile
painter. The subject of
the painting is the
martyrdom of St
Bartholomew, presents
an eerie contrast
between light and
shade to make the
scene more vivid.
27. Watteau
'La gamme
d'amour' (The
Love Song) – The
painting depicts the
moment when the
two musicians tune
up before a
performance. The
singer gives the
initial tone, and the
accompanist finds
the matching chord.
29. Goya
The 3rd of May
1808 In Madrid:
The Executions
on Principe Pio
Hill – The
paintings were to
"perpetuate" the
most notable and
heroic feats of the
patriots who rose
up in rebellion on
2nd May, 1808
against the
invading forces of
Napoleon.
30. Goya
Saturn devouring one of his Sons –
This disturbing painting is one of the
fourteen known as the "black
paintings" with which Goya decorated
the dining and living rooms of his
home.
House of
Deafness
31. Goya Clothed Maha – The word "Maja" used to describe the
woman in this painting; it was used to refer to women of
the lower social class in Madrid who were characterized
by certain liberal customs and an extroverted way. A
replica of this painting was made in the nude.
32. Romanticism
• Romanticism can be seen as a rejection of the
precepts of order, calm, harmony, balance,
idealization, and rationality that typified late
18th-century Neoclassicism.
• It was also to some extent a reaction against the
Enlightenment and against 18th-century
rationalism and physical materialism in general.
• Romanticism emphasized the individual, the
subjective, the irrational, the imaginative, the
personal, the spontaneous, the emotional, the
visionary, and the transcendental.
