	Pablo Picasso

		He soon went to Paris, the capital of art, and soaked up the works of Manet, Gustave Courbet, and Toulouse-Lautrec, whose sketchy style impressed him greatly.
		The other major artist promoted by the Steins during this period was Henri Matisse, who had made a sensation in an exhibition of 1905 for works of a most shocking new style, employing garish and dissonant colors.

		Art itself may be defined as a single minded attempt to render the highest kind of justice to the visible universe, by bringing to light the truth, manifold and one, underlying its every aspect.
		My art is representational by choice....if the art of painting is to survive, it must describe and express people, their lives and times.
		Art for me...is a negation of society, an affirmation of the individual, outside of all the rules and all the demands of society.

		ART Nouveau was a rich, voluptuous style that appealed to an enlightened elite, to personalities such as Sarah BERNHARDT and Loie FULLER, and to the nouveaux riches, whose tastes, uninhibited by tradition, encouraged designers to stylistic excesses.
		The Arts and Crafts Movement was the parent of ART Nouveau, but it persisted into the new period and after 1900 merged into the mainstream of the newer style.
		ART Nouveau was incorporated in the rebellious psychedelic style of the 1960s and finally achieved its place as a significant style in the history of modern ART.

	Springfield 1903 rifle - Art History Online Reference and Guide
		The Springfield 1903 rifle (military designation United States Rifle, Caliber.30, Model 1903) was the bolt action rifle issued to United States troops during the First World War.
		The rifle was developed due to observations of actions during the Spanish American War, in which Spanish troops were armed with German Mauser Model 93 rifles, which were deemed far superior to the U.S. Krag-Jørgensen rifles, in large part due to their durable internal magazines.
		The Springfield rifle model 1903 was 27 7/8 in (1.098 meters) long and weighed 8 lb 11 oz (3.95 kilograms).

		Light is fundamental to both physics and art and yet it remains a mystery to both.
		Discuss how light and colour have become the cornerstone of reality in the physics and art of the Modern World, and especially how they have evolved conceptually from early Christian art to the Renaissance and, more recently, to movements such as fauvism, impressionism and photorealism.
		In 1952, art critic Harold Rosenberg described Jackson Pollock's "drip" paintings as "action paintings."

		Bombay pottery developed from within the British imperial art education system in India, which established workshops set up to reorganise Indian artisans for the mass production of Indian handicrafts.3 The techniques and styles were derived from Indian glazed pottery traditions in Delhi in northern India and at Multan and Sind in modern Pakistan.
		The murals were copied by artists from the Sir J J School of Art in Bombay in the 1870s and then widely circulated to art schools across India for study.5 British orientalists admired the Ajanta frescoes for their high degree of naturalism and characterised them as the ￔclassicalￕ Indian painting style.
		Opened in 1857, the Mumbai-based Sir J J School of Art was financed by the Parsi philanthropist, Sir Jamshedjee Jeejeebhoy, Bart, in hopes of reviving traditional Indian arts and crafts.

		Time magazine art critic Robert Hughes once said that "To say that Pablo Picasso dominated Western art in the 20th century is, by now, the merest commonplace.
		As critic Hughes notes, "There was scarcely a 20th century movement that he didn't inspire, contribute to or--in the case of Cubism, which, in one of art history's great collaborations, he co-invented with Georges Braque--beget." Quite simply, as well as being a force of culture, Picasso was also a force of nature.

		Modern art in Paris in the early 20th century is often thought of as being almost boringly tasteful, but this is a terrible misunderstanding.
		Although fully clothed in a white dress symbolizing purity, the alluring model is depicted in a seductive pose, her beauty accentuated by her hair, her fashionable purple shoes, and the large bracelet executed in dabs of paint applied directly from the tube.
		It is a magnificent, resonant work of art that exemplifies the 30 years Carl Larsson spent decorating the hall of the National Museum in Stockholm.

		The inspiration for painting on woven mats was the textures he found in Byzantine art, which he had seen in color photographs.
		A series of works done a decade before World War II is a very good example of how he captured the qualities that are a part of native folk painting and recombined them with those of his own.
		He fused the minimal brush strokes of the Kalighat style with elements of tribal art from Bengal (like that of the terracotta work found in the Bishnupur temple in Bengal, where terracotta was often composed into decorative units - some elaborate in design - over portals and across exterior walls of the temples).

		At least art involves a degree of human involvement -- through manual skills or thought -- as with the word "artificial," meaning made by humans instead of by nature.
		Early in the twentieth century, for instance, artists expanded the definition of art to include such things as abstraction, collage, and readymades.
		Thanks to art, instead of seeing a single world, our own, we see it multiply until we have before us as many worlds as there are original artists.
