Simon Schama's Power of Art

Starred comment Schama exhibited eight outstanding artists who made their masterpieces in the context of personal and professional dilemmas. From politically motivated comments (David, Picasso, Turner, Rembrandt) to a strong personal view of the world (Van Gogh, Roscoe) and sacred figures (Benini and Caravaggio) Removed the sacred works of the master from the walls of the museum and dragged them into the dirt and earth they created. Personally (and more) painted Turner wants to follow his political loyalty no matter how much it costs. Schama's approach has had a great success in removing the traditional art history; throughout the process he met a cool British uncle who talked about art until late. He announced these normative works and their creators instantaneously and stylishly and conveyed bold and pure freshness. This book should be very valuable in the classroom, and it is very attractive for students who first meet with these artists. Professional art historians do not have much new research or analysis, but anyone interested in art will find lots of things.

The art of Europe in the 17th century was traditionally known as baroque.
