2、Short History of Western PaintingWhat is Western art? It is hard to give a precise definition. As there have been so many different styles of Western art, it is impossible to describe them all in a short text.

6、ra.2 and fill in the blanks.Careful Reading The Middle Ages (from the 5th to the 15th century) During the Middle Ages, the purpose of Western art was to teach people about Christianity. Thus, artists were not interested in painting realistic scenes. Their works were often primitive and two-dimension
7、al, and the main characters were often made much larger than everyone else to show their importance. This began to change in the 13th century with Giotto di Bondone (1267-1337). While his paintings still had religious themes, they showed real people in a real environment. In particular, his painting

10、aissance (from the 14th to the 17th century) Another innovation was the use of oil paints. With their deep colours and realism, some of the best oil paintings look like photographs. While painters as early as Da Vinci had used oil, this technique reached its height with Rembrandt (1606-1669), who ga
11、ined a reputation as a master of shadow and light. In subject matter, the emphasis increasingly shifted from religious themes to people and the world around us. Kings, nobles, and people of high rank wanted to purchase accurate pictures of themselves and the people they loved. Others wanted painting
12、s showing important historical events or stories from mythology. Finally, most clients wanted paintings that were beautiful and interesting to look at.Careful Reading The Renaissance (from the 14th to the 17th century) New ideas and values gradually replaced old ones from the Middle Ages. As a resul
13、t, painters concentrated less on religious themes. They began to adopt a more humanistic attitude to life. An important breakthrough during this period was the use of perspective by Masaccio (1401-1428). Influential painters such as Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519), Michelangelo (1475-1564), and Raphae

After that, paintings were no longe
17、r needed to preserve what people and the world looked like. Hence, painters had to find a new way of looking at their art. From this, Impressionism emerged in France. The name of this new movement came from the painting by Claude Monet (1840-1926) called Impression, Sunrise. In this work, Monets aim
18、 was to convey the light and movement in the scenethe subjective impression the scene gave himbut not a detailed record of the scene itself.Careful Reading Impressionism (late 19th to early 20th century) While many Impressionists painted scenes of nature or daily life, others, such as Renoir (1841-1
19、919), focused on people. Unlike the cold, black-and-white photographs of that time period, Renoirs paintings are full of light, shadow, colour, and life. He sought to show not just the outer image of his subjects, but their inner warmth and humanity as well.Careful Reading Impression, SunriseThe Sta

Painters such as Picasso (1

Still others turned to abstract art. What they attempted to do was no longer show reality, but instead to ask the question, What is
