Both of the artists used two different type of art in there art work Eugene used realistic style and Picasso used Cubism. The definition for realistic style is an attempt to make art and literature resemble life. Realist painters and writers take their subjects from the world around them and try to represent them in a lifelike manner. Picasso was one of the arts who kind a invented cubism, cubism means a perspective with a single viewpoint was abandoned and use was made of simple geometric shapes, interlocking planes, and later,
During Vincent Van Gogh’s childhood years, and even before he was born, impressionism was the most common form of art. Impressionism was a very limiting type of art, with certain colors and scenes one must paint with. A few artists had grown tired of impressionism, however, and wanted to create their own genre of art. These artists, including Paul Gaugin, Vincent Van Gogh, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, and Paul Cezanne, hoped to better express themselves by painting ...
This painting is able to show in detail how emotional it was for the Spanish after the war. It flawlessly used colors and lighting to show importance of character.

The painting "Guernica" was the most famous painting of the 20th century because it depicted an event that took place during the Spanish Civil War. After General Francisco Franco accepted aid from Germany and Italy to topple the liberal government of the fledging Spanish Republic. In return, Franco allowed the Nazi's to test their developing air power. As an experiment to see if an aerial bombing could wipe out a whole city the Germans bombed the town of Guernica on Apriil 28, 1937.

The colors are very specific, and there are sets of colors expressly grouped together for various types of paintings. There are sets for landscapes, flowers and wildlife painting. His style can be emulated using other brands of paints, but if the artist uses different shades of a color, the mixture will not result in the same tone found on a Ross painting. Lamp Black and Ivory Black may not blend exactly the same. Mixing green from yellow and Prussian Blue will not be the same green as yellow mixed with Phthalo Blue.
Guernica is one of Pablo Picasso’s most well-known paintings in the world. It was created in response to the bombing of Guernica by German and Italian warplanes on April 26 1937 during the Spanish Civil War. The intention that Picasso had was to depict the scenes of the tragedies of the war and the loss of innocent lives. This terrible event was shown to us in the painting as Picasso utilized a number of symbolic images through the helplessness of the many faces and how war brings upon destruction and grief.
Juan Gris, a Spanish-born painter, made important contributions to the modern style of painting called Cubism. GrisÕs paintings were always depicting his immediate surroundings. He painted still lives composed of simple, everyday objects, portraits of friends, and occasionally landscapes or cityscapes. The objects in his paintings and collages are more clearly defined and richly colored than those in the works of the earlier cubists Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque.
Abstract art in comparison to realism, can be described as two art forms on opposite ends of the art style spectrum. Picasso and Pollock both had a massive impact on the outcome of modern art through their ability to challenge viewers as they interpret art, not for what the painting shows, but instead what the idea of it came from. Picasso’s painting is now an iconic symbol for an anti-war message, and Pollock’s painting now represent a form of freedom of speech and expression throughout America. Ultimately the reason artists moved from realism to abstract came from the invention of the camera, giving artist a reason to branch to new and edgy art forms, which will later create the modern art
The first difference between the two are the colors that were used. Van Gogh used bright blues and yellows to depict the night sky that stretches over the quaint town below. On the other hand, Kahlo used more neutral colors in hers. The sky in her painting is grey and stormy, giving the painting a melancholy feel, while van Gogh’s if full of swirling clouds and rather cheerful. The brush strokes in the paintings are vastly different as well. Van Gogh used thick, layered brushstrokes to give the painting an exaggerated, almost chaotic, feel. The painting technique that van Gogh used is called impasto, taking paint straight from the tube and onto the brush ("Van Gogh, The Starry Night"). This made his paintings more abstract while still keeping the subject obvious. You could always tell what he was painting, whether it was the night sky or his own face. On the other hand, Kahlo used a more realistic approach when painting, making her subjects clear and obvious. She studied biology and anatomy when she was in school, which was reflected in how well she could draw the human body and its parts like the hearts seen in The Two Fridas ("Kahlo, The Two Fridas (Las Dos
His work is mostly famous with his Cubism events. As he enters its twenty-fifth year, Picasso changed his style of painting. It breaks down and reproduces objects in simple geometric shapes. Cézanne, African tribal art and Iberian sculpture would be the inspiration the painter when it turned to Cubism. (Picasso, P. (1970) With the Demoiselles d 'Avignon that this new style explodes in 1907. That same year, he met Georges Braque with whom he develops the power of Cubism. The two work closely together. To address the problem of representing what exists in three dimensions on a two dimensional surface, Braque and Picasso bring a new answer. They replace the usual codes of color, volume and perspective through a system of geometric signs. They will add to it, in a subsequent phase (synthetic cubism), the use of pieces of various materials (sand, paper, metal, wood, fabric, cardboard ...) to avoid falling into abstract art. Picasso abandons Cubism in 1915. (p25) It had been demonstrated that his work had given a big importance in our current historical events and how it was also given a big importance in his times such as in the support of the cubism
Delacroix created more than 850 paintings, drawings, murals and other works in his career. Delacroix’s most influential work and most romantic is Liberty Leading the People. It was also called “le 28 Juillet and La Liberte conduissant le people aux barricades”. The French Revolution, 1830, inspired the last of his paintings to be called Romantic. Delacroix’s technique was to apply contrasting colors, creating a vibrant effect with small brush strokes.
These three paintings show the maturation of Eugene’s style to painting with
Along with George Braque, Picasso was responsible for the invention of cubism. Cubism is one of the most radical restructuring of the way that a work of art constructs its meaning. Cubism is a term that was derived from a reference made to geometric schemes and cubes. Cubism has been known as the first and the most influential of all movements in twentieth century art . Before Picasso did any cubism paintings, there were works exibititing a raw intensity and violence due to his reading of non western art aligned with European primitivism. This contrasting position provided the dynamic for Picasso’s work. In his paintings such as Mother and Child, Picasso showed the fetishistic and simplifying aspects of primitivism. In his paintings Picasso used bright hues and subdued grays and earth colors. Picasso found out that shapes could have meaning and identities by their arrangement .

What might be the most ideal approach to challenge against the war or even impact an extensive gathering of individuals to bolster your cause? As the time goes on, individuals will utilize workmanship to express their thoughts on what was going ahead in that time. In 1830 there was a Persian Revolution in the general population ousted the reestablished Bourbons and set Louise Philippe on the throne of France. While in 1937 there was a spanish Fascist pioneer named Francisco Franco who drove Spain around then and since the Spanish and Germans were associates, Franco permitted the Germans to test their weapons and drop their bombs on Guernica in which Guernica endured enormous setbacks with many lives lost.

However neither of these artists would be as highly considered, as they are, if these were the only images in their works. Indeed, it is the ambiguity of these images that makes them so great.
