history painting wikipedia

History painting, as formulated in 1667 by André Félibien, a historiographer, architect and theoretician of French classicism, was in the hierarchy of genres considered to be the grand genre.
paintings with religious, mythological, historical, literary, or allegorical subjects--they embodied some interpretation of life or conveyed a moral or intellectual message.
17 more annotations...
- the painting of scenes with narrative content from classical history, Christian history, and mythology, as well as depicting the historical events of the near past
- historical events chosen would be iconographic, not only depicting important events, but ones of particular significance to the painter's society, as for instance, the signing of the declaration of independence in American history painting. The event, if suitable, does not need to have actually occurred, and artists have frequently taken great liberties with historical facts in order to portray the message desired.
- The gods and goddesses from the ancient mythologies represented different aspects of the human psyche, figures from religions represented different ideas, and history, like the other sources, represented a dialectic or play of ideas. For a long time, especially during the French Revolution, history painting often focused on depiction of the heroic male nude; though this waned into the 19th century.
- Other artists depicted scenes, regardless of when they occurred, in classical dress.
- he was firmly instructed to use classical attire by many people
- inaugurating a more historically accurate style in such paintings
- historicism, which marked a formal imitation of historical styles and/or artists
- mid-nineteenth-century
- the depiction of scenes of everyday life
- the blending of this genre with that known as genre painting
- events of great public importance were supplemented with scenes depicting more personal incidents in the lives of the great, or the everyday life in historical settings.
- connected the change with the moral messages conveyed by the public events; they asserted that moral messages were also instructive in the ordinary life, and indeed, were even superior because more people would be able to apply the lesson implicit in a depiction of family life than in one of a heroic death on the battle field.
- A history painter is not only a painter of historical motifs but depicts, in a "grand" style, man in general, and particularly the great events of Greek and Roman fable and history, the capital subjects of scripture history, a scene from a great literary work, or a famous event in the life of a baroque potentate. The subject commonly ought to be either some instance of heroic action or heroic suffering, with characters painted in classical poses.
- History painting was the dominant form of academic painting (the painting that came from the various national academies) in the 19th century, in particular, but also in the post-revolutionary France as well
- The Impressionists rejected all historical subjects and tableau
- the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood in England focused on subjects from national literature and myth, rather than classical subjects.
- humble subjects and pure sensation

philosophy painting aesthetics wikipedia

From the late 17th to the early 20th century Western aesthetics underwent a slow revolution into what is often called modernism
For Hegel all culture is a matter of "absolute spirit" coming to be manifest to itself, stage by stage.

- For Schopenhauer aesthetic contemplation of beauty is the most free that the pure intellect can be from the dictates of will; here we contemplate perfection of form without any kind of worldly agenda, and thus any intrusion of utility or politics would ruin the point of the beauty.
- Post-modern aesthetics and psychoanalysis
- Early twentieth century artists, poets and composers challenged the assumption that beauty was central to art and aesthetics
- Jean-François Lyotard re-invokes the Kantian distinction between taste and the sublime. Sublime painting, unlike kitsch realism, "...will enable us to see only by making it impossible to see; it will please only by causing pain."^[28]^[29]
