=====European Paintings Team=====

[https://www.metmuseum.org/departments/european-paintings-1250-1800/team by Jane R. Becker THE MET]

Jane R. Becker is a specialist in nineteenth-century painting and sculpture who studied art history as an undergraduate at Williams College and, for her PhD, at the Institute of Fine Arts, New York University. She joined the department in early 2015 after holding curatorial positions at other museums, working as an independent art historian, and lecturing for The Met.

=====Printmaking in Europe, c. 1400−1800=====

[https://smarthistory.org/printmaking-europe-14001800/ by Dr. Kylie Fisher Smarthistory]

The printing press was arguably one of the most revolutionary inventions in the history of the early modern world. While the fifteenth-century German goldsmith and publisher, Johannes Gutenberg, is heralded for his creation of a mechanical printing press that allowed for the mass-production of images and texts, the technology of movable type was first pioneered much earlier in East Asia. In early eleventh-century China, the artisan Bi Sheng discovered that he could make individual Chinese characters from baked clay to create a system of movable type. Later, in thirteenth-century Korea, the first known metal movable type was produced.

=====Symbol and Meaning in Northern European Art of the Late Middle Ages and the Early Renaissance=====

[https://www.jstor.org/stable/3780635 by James H. Marrow JSTOR]

Simiolus is an English-language journal devoted to the history of Dutch and Flemish art of the fifteenth to seventeenth centuries, with occasional forays into more recent periods and other schools. Founded in 1966 as an outlet for art history students at the University of Utrecht, it has grown to become an internationally recognized journal of record in its field, publishing contributions by many renowned scholars and promising young art historians. Simiolus has a broad range, featuring articles on iconography and iconology, art theory and historiography, the history of the art market and the history of collecting. Many of them have become classics of their kind.

=====A History of European Art=====

Take in the full sweep of European art from Gothic cathedrals to Cubism in this spellbinding and visually-dazzling course taught by an acclaimed art-historian.

=====Renaissance art=====

[https://www.britannica.com/art/Renaissance-art by The Editors of Encyclopaedia Britannica 21/10/25 Britannica]

Renaissance art, painting, sculpture, architecture, music, and literature produced during the 14th, 15th, and 16th centuries in Europe under the combined influences of an increased awareness of nature, a revival of classical learning, and a more individualistic view of humans. Scholars no longer believe that the Renaissance marked an abrupt break with the values of the Middle Ages, as is suggested by the French word renaissance, literally “rebirth.”

=====The evolution of human artistic creativity=====

[https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC2815939/ by NIH]

Creating visual art is one of the defining characteristics of the human species, but the paucity of archaeological evidence means that we have limited information on the origin and evolution of this aspect of human culture. The components of art include colour, pattern and the reproduction of visual likeness. The 2D and 3D art forms that were created by Upper Palaeolithic Europeans at least 30 000 years ago are conceptually equivalent to those created in recent centuries, indicating that human cognition and symbolling activity, as well as anatomy, were fully modern by that time.

=====Early modern Europe experienced significant changes, influenced by rising urbanization, new ways of thinking, global networks, colonization, and shifts in religion=====

[https://www.artsq.org/early-modern-europe by ARTS]

Innovation and experimentation defined the Italian city-states between 1400–1600

=====European Art History=====

[https://www.softschools.com/timelines/european_art_history_timeline/366/ by SoftSchools.com]

Timeline Description: European art history began with early mobile anthropomorphic carvings in the Paleolithic era, as well as cave paintings reflecting the natural world. Europe took a distinct turn from other regions with the rise of the Greek empire, and Greek classical art and architecture influenced later European art for centuries. The Christian church influenced much of medieval art until the Renaissance, when a revival in classical ideas turned artistic attention to humanistic themes. Subsequent artistic movements were alternatively progressive and conservative, typically developing as reactions to previous movements.

=====18th-Century Art=====

Current art history news, exhibitions, videos, reviews, & information posted on FACEBOOK by Dr. Christopher L.C.E. Witcombe

=====Medieval Art – Historical Overview, Characteristics and Examples=====

[https://www.whataportrait.com/blog/medieval-art-history-characteristics-examples/?srsltid=AfmBOorAtVj8cccCibbgs-ZjEuorZUPYO_X2_t1o3DIiPDE5JXf3DhI_ by Kritika Jain 15/10/25 WHAT A PORTRAIT]

While many of us know much about the Renaissance Age, we are yet to understand what gave rise to it. Despite its significance, the common masses are yet to discover Medieval art in its full glory. So, let's delve deeper into this article to explore more about the Middle Ages and Medieval art.

=====An encounter with great Western art: an everlasting wonder=====

[https://www.uffizi.it/en/the-uffizi by LE GALLERIE]

The Gallery entirely occupies the first and second floors of the large building constructed between 1560 and 1580 and designed by Giorgio Vasari. It is famous worldwide for its outstanding collections of ancient sculptures and paintings (from the Middle Ages to the Modern period).
