SECOND QUARTER
ARTS OF THE RENAISSANCE AND BAROQUE PERIODS
Renaissance Period 1750 – 1820c

Renaissance was the period of economic progress. The period stirred enthusiasm for the study of
ancient philosophy and artistic values.
Italian Renaissance began in the late 14th century. It was an era of great artistic and intellectual
achievement with the birth of secular art. The focus was on realistic and humanistic art.
Renaissance art was characterized by accurate anatomy, scientific perspective, and deeper
landscape.
Renaissance painters depicted real-life figures and their sculptures were naturalistic portraits of human
beings.
Architecture during this period was characterized by its symmetry and balance.

FAMOUS RENAISSANCE ARTWORKS AND ARTISTS
1 Michaelangelo was an Italian sculptor, painter, architect, and

poet. He was considered the greatest living artist in his lifetime,
and ever since then he was considered as one of the greatest
artist of all time.
Among his outstanding works as sculptor were the following:

Pieta, Bacchus, Moses, David, Dying Slave, Dawn, and Dusk.
Two of his best known works, The Pieta and David, were sculpted
before he turned thirty.
In Pieta, Michaelangelo approached the subject which until then

had been given form mostly from north of the Alps, where the
portrayal of pain had always been connected with the idea of

BAROQUE ART (1600 – 1800)
The term Baroque was derived from the Portuguese word barocco which means “irregularly
shaped pearl or stone”. It describes a fairly complex idiom and focuses on painting, sculpture, as
well as architecture.
After the idealism of Renaissance, and the slightly forced of “mannerism”. Baroque art above all
reflects the tensions of the age notably desire of the Catholic Church in Rome to reassert itself in the
wake of the Protestant Reformation which is almost the same with the Catholic Reformation Art of the
period.
Baroque was a period of artistic styles in exaggerated motion, drama, tension, and grandeur.
The style started in in Rome, Italy, and spread to most of Europe.

FAMOUS BAROQUE ARTWORKS AND ARTISTS

1 wanted to deviate from the classical masters of the Renaissance. He
was an outcast in his society, because of his own actions and the lack
of modesty and reverence for religious subjects in his own paintings.

persons who have an air of being promising but wicked. Among his
famous paintings were: Supper at Emmaus, Conversation of Saint
Paul, and Entombment of Christ.

Rembrandt was a brilliant Dutch realist, painter, and etcher. He is

4 generally considered as one of the greatest painters and printmakers
in European art. Rembrandt shares with Rubens the revolution
whereby painting came to depict the more personal aspects of the
painter: his own home and his family. No artist has painted himself as
often as did Rembrandt. His concept of himself continued to deepen
in grasp subtlety, while his technique grew more daring. His well-
known work was his “Self-portrait in Old Age”.
