Description: |
The art
of painting reached one of its highest levels of mastery in
the Italian Renaissance period. The 14th to 17th century
brought forth the masters of fine art. The works of
Michelangelo, Raphael, Boticelli, Titian and Leonardo da
Vinci left their mark on history, leaving behind passionate
and powerful paintings for art lovers to admire for
centuries to come.
Using
the female form for most of his work, the Pre-Raphaelite
style of John Waterhouse (1849-1917) paintings leaves the
viewer being reminded of the Italian masters. Focusing on
Italian themes and scenery and classical mythology,
Waterhouse painted some of the most beautiful women and men
in his over 200 paintings.
