Art History

With the external history LAS MENINAS, it has become one of the most important masterpieces of DIEGO DE VELAZQUUEZ. Like a final fear, this mysterious scene broke the fight between Minella and Arakune with the ability of weaving. Traditionally, it represents a women's Santa Isabel studio working in the tapestry, but it now considers it a mythical theme. It may have been drawn around 1657. The title of "Spinners" is the invention after seeming to be inspired by a woman rotating in the foreground, as is well known, they are workers of the Santa Isabel Tapestry Factory in Madrid. This Velazquez picture has been considered for a long time.

Although this can not be learned in the class of art history, there are always female artists. They are not included in art history books. It is totally different. Indeed, all my major in Janson's art history, standard college textbooks, and art and art history started studying since I went to school. Only women are included. 1986

Art history is somewhat different. There is lots of evidence, but I think that it has different properties. You can not do art with premise, you can not understand the world of artists and the culture and background of art creation. Art is a guideline, it is a direction of travel, it is not a destination. Art will tell us something, but it does not tell us. For one of such audiences, Tintoretto's "Three Beauties" may only serve the imagination; he used it as a porn. For others, it may be the starting point of Greek mythology meditation, and it is worth its own. Imagine that you can produce something as good as the image itself itself in a different way.

At the heart of all the art history papers there is a detailed visual analysis of at least one art work. In art history, you are building discussions on visual matters. Depending on the task, this analysis serves as the basis for the task and may be included in the paper as a backing of the contextualization of the discussion. In order to teach students about how to write art historical thesis, the department of art history recommends that you start with visual observation and lead to the development of explanatory papers / controversy. Writing uses visual inspection as evidence to support arguments about the art being analyzed
