    Throughout ancient Egyptian history, art and culture remained constant to support the idea of “order over chaos.” However, in the mid-14th century BCE a revolution occurred in Egyptian society, culture, and religion, consequently causing a brief transformation in Egyptian art. These changes can be detected in the Relief of Princess with an Earring. This sculpture was made in the 18th Dynasty (1353-1336 BCE), during the reign of Akhenaten. Although only a portion of the limestone relief is displayed in the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archeology, the sculpture still demonstrates the attributes that are found in art from Amarna Period.…

    The work of art I chose to discuss this week is, Equestrian Portrait of King Phillip II (Michael Jackson), an oil on canvas painting done in 2010 by Kehinde Wiley. I chose this painting because Kehinde Wiley’s art interests me. When I first looked up some of his work I found that he has a signature style of remake classic paintings from the 17th century all the way up to the 19th century. But he adds his own twist to them. He gets innovative and incorporates African-American figures into his paintings as the focal point.…

    Rome was a polytheistic culture. This meant they believed in many gods and goddesses that all represented their own aspect of life or nature.

    Although the Declaration of Independence states, “all men are created equal,” it is not so that all men are treated equal. On May 11, 2015, five months ago, Time published on the front cover an Instagram photo captured by Devin Allen--the message intended was explicit. Indeed, the cover photo evokes a confrontational awareness to the most racial hot topic in today’s news feed. Time uses historic black and white contrast, scurry movements, and the no symbol as a call to action to those who advocate for racial equality and those who desire “justice for all”. – Do I quote the allegiance?…

    Art is influenced by everything around it, it comes as a direct result of the cultural sphere it occurs within. The Italian group of painters known as the Macchiaioli are no different from this rule, during the nineteenth-century they took outside influences to create a new esthetic that reflected their personal ideals. Although how independently this new esthetic came about, and who influenced them directly can varied. Depending on the point of view of the author writing on the Macchiaioli, there can be a very large difference of opinion. The influence of outside sources is agued in four different ways by the authors Norma Broude, Nancy Troyer and Anna Cavina.…

    Art is constantly changing. Styles come in and out of favor, subject matter old and new are painted and explored, and new techniques are developed. One major development and new technique that vastly changed art was the use of linear perspective during 15th Century Italy. As with any new technique, the use of linear perspective took a while to advance and become the mathematically based depth cue that people now know it as. In the beginning, it was simply the slight convergence of lines, not always to the same vanishing point.…

    When thinking about this topic and how to address it I first began to really try and understand the meaning of macabre. The official definition is “disturbing and horrifying because of involvement with or depiction of death and injury” and its implication can be clearly seen in the images we have viewed in class. The whole idea of the macabre is thought to have come from a dark time in history and represents more than simply grisly images. The artwork I decided to truly focus on is Hans Baldung Grien, Three Ages of Woman and Death, Germany, c. 1510.…

    • Honestly, to understand and interpret art is actually very challenging. In addition, when it’s abstract art I admit that understanding abstract art can be very challenging. Like you can keep staring at them for days and still don’t get a single right thought what the artist is actually trying to convey to us. Abstracts are less immediate and less accessible.…
