The first picture created was done through a lengthy process in which pewter hardens to create an image. Americans liked photography because of its ability to replicate things from the real world. One picture from American photography is a photo of John Brown. He was a famous American abolitionist. He is shown holding a flag and making a vowing gesture with his right hand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Moving on to impressionism, paintings were characterized through their use of light and brushstrokes. It attempted to show the transitory nature of life. This can be seen in Claude Monet’s, The Gare Saint-Lazare.<\/em> Here he is attempting to capture the impression of a moment in this train stating including aspects like the way the light was, as well as shadows. This was done through using a multitude of brushstrokes, each with its own color. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Another work by Monet, Impression, Sunrise<\/em>, was the basis for the name of the Impressionism movement. It shows a port during sunrise. Many elements such as form and composition are not there. The shapes of the objects as well as the colors were not painted to encapsulate the things painted. I do wonder what the actual scene looked like as the actual colors and buildings are sort of imagined by the viewer filled in with knowledge of what the world looked like at this time. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The first picture created was done through a lengthy process in which pewter hardens to create an image.
