1. Oil Painting Art through the ages By: Ryan Reede

3. Oils qualities allow for it to be applied to many different surfaces, more modernly on canvas however.

4. The long drying times of oil mean that artists using this medium would paint in sessions. Depending on the type of oil, drying time could be anywhere from a few days to a few weeks as it doesn’t evaporate to dry like water colors. Instead, oil dries by an oxidative chemical reaction over time.

6. 1300’s Up until now, oil mainly used to coat tempera paintings to liven the colors.

7. 1410 Jan Von Eyck is credited with devising the current method for oil painting. He used more modern chemistry, and combined mineral pigments for longer-lasting, brighter colors. Also, his methods were more water durable.

9. Widely considered a renewal of the Renaissance in Italy.

10. Opposed to the showy works of the Baroque artists.

11. Used classical elements that promoted nationalism and patriotism.

12. Oil is no longer just mainly stream, but also the most popular among the most notable neoclassical artists

13. Notable Artists

19. Based off of a scene in 669 B.C. from Titus-Livy.

20. Shows overly dramatic lighting and shadows by use.

21. The way the gestures of the man are clearly represented show a patriotic theme.

25. Nature overly personified, the mysterious, inner genius, moods, and personal or class struggles moved artists specifically during the Romantic era.

27. Painted France in 1830.

28. Eugene tries to emphasize the intellectual strength and determination of the middle-lower class citizens by giving them a heroic appearance in this work especially.

32. Began in France around 1850, the same as the invention of the still camera.

33. The advent of the camera pushed artists to duplicate the accuracy that film created giving birth to the realistic era of art.

34. Oil continued to be a popular medium of art because like stated earlier, it has the ability to generate realistic tones whether or not things like lighting or characterization were overly dramatized.

35. Realistic artists poised themselves against the romantic artists because they felt as though art should be unbiased.

36. Workers were commonly the subject of realistic art as the Industrial Revolution was in full swing.

37. Notable artists of this era are

38. Adolf von Menzel

39. Jean François Millet

40. Gustave Courbet Sliding Box Camera/First Photograph Joseph NicephoreNiepce, 1826

44. This painting’s realism sows the painstaking work required by these three peasant women at the base of the economy in France at the time.

45. Upper classes heavily criticized this piece as they felt it brought socialist ideas along with it.
