For centuries, artists continued to paint humanistic iconography based on the works of the Classical Greco-Roman artists; from the medieval perspective, the 15th and the 18th centuries focused on depicting images that were derived from various sources such as mythology and religious scenes.

However, by the late 19th century up to the early phase of the 20th century, the Modern period spearheaded the development of new avant-garde styles and the rejection of humanism in visual arts by reducing the subjects into something that is defined only ...

This social movement unites people with different points of view on the relationship between humans and animals. Maximalist approach adherents believe that we need to waiver farming, animal husbandry, hunting and other ways of using animals for human needs. The main idea can be expressed through a verbal formula: "Man and animals are equal and therefore have equal rights; to kill animals is just as crime, as to kill a person." However, this theory does not hold out to any criticism, as the idea of equality between men and animals is highly irrational. Animal protection extremists, or eco-terrorists affect ...

If one tries to figure out the first illustrations on the planet, they will be taken back all the way to the cave paintings by ancient men.

Introduction

Before the Protestant Reformation and the Enlightenment, though, the field of inquiry was completely different than it would be afterward. There was only one religious establishment during that time period, and that establishment had the power of eternal fear over everyone and everything. The fact that the Roman Catholic Church had the power to ban someone not just from church but from any chance of salvation radically altered the calculus of anyone interested in pursuing any sort of intellectual endeavor. Remember, this is the same institution that sought to excommunicate Galileo and Copernicus because of their claims that the ...

<Institution> During the 1970’s, graffiti proliferated in public places in different American cities (CBS Sunday Morning, 2014). During that time, it was considered as unlawful. Several decades later, many graffiti were showcased as work of art in the Museum of the City of New York. Despite this, graffiti should still be considered as vandalism rather than a work of art because of its effects to the society. First of all, graffiti is vandalism, a crime, because it affects other’s property. Public properties, such as city walls, buses, or trains, are cleaned and maintained by people’s ...

Who would have ever imagined, in their wildest dreams that a simple splatter of paint, a solid coat of one single colour painted on a canvas, or even an infant like sketch that would take 10 seconds to complete, would in the right hands sell for millions and millions of dollars? Is this even possible in today’s vast and sweeping art market? It most certainly is, and records for highest priced artworks sold over the last century continue to be broken to this very day. However it is our intention to explore specifically as to why such simple ...

According to EPA (2016), environmental management involves the development of systems aimed at reducing environmental impacts of various activities. In the Brundtland commission report (WCED), sustainable development has been described as development aimed at meeting the current needs of the present generation. However, as the current generation focuses on meeting their own needs, their activities should not compromise the capability of future generations to also meet their own needs. Available evidence suggests that the future generation would have challenges meeting their own needs if the current generation fails to adopt sustainable practices. The sustainable development incorporates the triple line: ...

Transgender and the Use of MMPI-2

The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) test is a self-report measure of psychopathology and the personality structures in adults. As opposed to other similar tests, it is difficult for those subjected to it to give a false impression or deny` the existence of a problem. It is also possible to conduct empirical research using the MMPI-2 tests, as it gives an opportunity to give quantitative evidence. Therefore, it is more practical when evaluating psychological issues. It is especially the case in addressing the psychological issues of the diverse transgender population (Tellegen, et al., 2003). Interventions such as hormonal treatment ...

The Modern Period in art is set at the period between 1870-1970. No distinct style could be established or described during this period.

Woman Holding Balance and Birth of Venus

While art may often imitate life, it also reflects passions and beliefs. These expressions are consistent, in some ways, across history and style or form, however, each expression is unique and contains qualities that others do not. This can be seen in two iconic works with female subjects in “Woman Holding Balance” and “The Birth of Venus.” These two works are similar in their iconic representation of the female form, and their religious significance, however their medium, form, and subject matter contrast significantly. First, it is significant to consider the form. Both works are paintings, but that is where ...

Among the factors that can play a role in religious identification (culture, history, economics, politics, etc.,) does one stand out over the others? Religion is identified using various factors. However, the existing factors are similar in importance to one another. Identifying all the factors are similar in interest and importance when used to determine the religion of a community.
