The Rise of Modernism
The “modern” era of art history coincides with
three revolutions:
Political revolutions in America and France, resulting in
democratic governments.
The Industrial Revolution starting in England, resulting in
new inexpensive products including oil paint in a tube.
The Scientific Revolution (part of the Enlightenment) in
which Church authority questioned, “reason” the basis of
authority.

Romanticism: Art that celebrates nature, illustrates exotic and
ordinary people, as well as shows the irrational side of human
nature. Expressive brushwork, oftentimes splashes of
saturated color.

Realism: Art that explores the subjects of everyday life, the
countryside, and/or the plight of the lower class as they
actually appeared. Oftentimes political.

work takes an academic approach to painting?

Although Manet never considered himself
an Impressionist, we will see he was a great
influence on the next art historical
movement we will explore…
