How did the Industrial Revolution continued in Art

The Industrial Revolution continued in the last period of the 18th Century in United States (1848), till the 19th Century in 1907. This revolution started to spread in Europe, and after some time it reached out to North America and all around the world.

In 1848 a small group of young artists formed “the Pre-Raphaelites”. They went back to the art done before the Renaissance.

This painting is made from an artist named Sopie, that this girl is one of the Pre-Raphaelites group


The realism art began from a group of artists, writers and intellectuals in a Parisan bar in the late 1840`s till it continues on the 1850`s from France. Some important artists that gave birth to realism are Courbet, Bonheur, Millet, Manet, Degas etc... These artists created their own view of reality, for example Courbet painted the reality of life in the countryside.
This is a Realist painting by Gustave Courbet and it is made  in 1854


Later on in the 1860`s the British art processed to classical art till the late Victorian period. The famous artists in this period were Alma-Tadema, Leighton and Sargent.

The name of this painting is The Roses of Heliogabalus and ths is made by Lawrence Alma-Tadema in 1888


In the 1870`s some artists like Monet, Gustave, Caillebotte painted some landscapes with loose open brushstrokes and bright colours. These artists showed their sensations of light; this type of art is called Impressionism. Impressionism was not only an art style, but it was a name of a group of people who joined together to exhibit their work on Impressionism.

Ths painting is an example of what is Impressionism and this is made by Monet in 1872. This painting named  Impression, Sunrise.


In the 1880`s there were three different types of Art, which are; Post Impressionism, Symbolism and Art Nouveau.

Post Impressionism began in the late 1880s and it was consolidated by four artists together, that are Van Gogh, Gauguin, Cezanne and Seurat. Van Gogh and Gauguin were truly best friends and they liked to paint together but these four artists were always focused in subjectivity.

This is an example of Post Impressionism. This painting named the boy in the red vest, made by Cezanne in  1890.

In the Symbolism and Art Nouveau period, artists turned away from modern life impressionism and worked more on their own dreams and imagination. They were thinking that the impressionism was very attached to materialism of the middle class culture. Symbolism was used by Van Gogh and Gauguin.
