The eclectic art of which the Carracci family dreamed was realised by Rubens with the ease of genius. However, the problem was much more complicated for a man of the north, who wished to add to it a fusion of the Flemish and Latin spirits, of which the rather pedantic attempts of Romanism had illustrated the difficulties. He achieved it without losing anything of his overflowing personality, his questing imagination, and the enchanting discoveries of the greatest colourist known to painting. Rubens, the greatest master of Baroque painting’s exuberance, took from the Italian Renaissance what could be of use to him, and then built upon it a style of his own. It is distinguished by a wonderful mastery of the human form and an amazing wealth of splendidly lighted colour. He was a man of much intellectual poise and was accustomed to court life, travelling from court to court, with pomp, as a trusted envoy. Rubens was one of those rare mortals who do real honour to humanity. He was handsome,

古斯塔夫·克林姆(Gustav Klimt)初因其采用的装饰花纹闻名(与他的兄弟及其在艺术学校的伙伴弗朗茨·马什共同创作)。因为大多剧院和重要的维也纳艺术史博物馆(在他的时代是重要的)均采用的是玛卡特(Makart)式的冷色调摄影风格。在他三十岁的时候他有了自己的工作室,并且开始了架上绘画。在三十五岁的时候,他成为了维也纳分离派的奠基人之一。在八年之后,在对自然主义日益强势的趋势倍感失望的情况下,他离开了这一领域。

鲁本斯,巴洛克绘画繁荣时期伟大的艺术巨匠,从意大利文艺复兴中汲取了所有对其有用的精华,从而建立起了自己的风格。这个来自北方的艺术家希望并且实现了将佛兰德艺术与拉丁艺术融合起来,却不失自己热情四溢的个性与不断探索的想象力以及作为伟大色彩大师的醉人发现。他的风格以对人体形态的绝妙把握和对华丽的明亮色彩极为丰富的运用而著名。对自己理智*自信的鲁本斯像个深受信任的使者带着浮夸的举止旅行于各个国家之间,因此也习惯了宫廷的生活。如果说米开朗基罗是激情澎湃的代表,那么鲁本斯也可以被认作是描绘生活喜悦和生机的高产代表。

塞尚成为19世纪著名的日常静物写生的画家,其强烈的风格无人可以匹敌。当搬到巴黎,受到雷诺阿的鼓舞之后,这位普罗旺斯艾克斯出生的画家与印象派画家们一起在1874年和1877年开了画展,尽管他遭受到评论的嘲讽和伤害。塞尚的雄心,用他自己的话来说,是“创作出可以留在博物馆的坚实不催的印象主义画作”。不久之后,孤独寂寞的塞尚退隐到普罗旺斯,忧郁和无助常常侵袭而来。他变得野蛮而挑剔,撕毁画布,扔到画室外,丢弃到树林田间,或剪碎给儿子拼图玩,或丢给艾克斯当地人。1906年他因在一场大雨中作画,高烧去世,之后不久,他的作品得到了晚来的认同。

你很难将保罗克利(Paul Klee)归类到某个艺术史上的运动。与瓦西里康定斯基(Wassily Kandinsky)和弗兰茨马尔克(Franz Marc)类似,克利曾是表现主义画家团体蓝骑士(Der Blaue Reiter)的重要成员之一。之后,他又参与到了包豪斯建筑学派之中,甚至在德绍的学校中教授绘画课程。就克利看来,艺术与生产无关,只是为了让事物更加清晰可见。在他的绘画中,克利微妙地融入了二十世纪初的趋势。对于德国的表现主义来说,克利为其注入了立体主义和奥费主义的元素,用超现实主义的忧郁的诗歌来点缀他的作品。 作者带领我们穿越克利世界中的奇迹,画中的每一笔都回响着色彩的力量。

“Father Pissarro”, as his friends liked to call him, was the most restrained of the artists of the Impressionist movement. Perhaps it was his age, being older than his fellow artists Monet, Sisley, Bazille, and Renoir, or rather his maturity, which resulted in his works having such serene and sober subjects and compositions. A man of simple tastes, he enjoyed painting peasants going about their daily lives. However, Pissarro owes his belated fame to his urban landscapes, which he treated with the same passion he used to paint beautiful stormy skies and frost-whitened mornings.

Burne-Jones’ oeuvre can be understood as an attempt to create in paint a world of perfect beauty, as far removed from the Birmingham of his youth as possible. At that time Birmingham was a byword for the dire effects of unregulated capitalism – a booming, industrial conglomeration of unimaginable ugliness and squalor. The two great French symbolist painters, Gustave Moreau and Pierre Puvis de Chavannes, immediately recognised Burne-Jones as an artistic fellow traveller. But, it is very unlikely that Burne-Jones would have accepted or even, perhaps, have understood the label of ‘symbolist’. Yet he seems to have been one of the most representative figures of the symbolist movement and of that pervasive mood termed “fin-de-siecle”. Burne-Jones is usually labelled as a Pre-Raphaelite. In fact he was never a member of the Brotherhood formed in 1848. Burne-Jones’ brand of Pre-Raphaelitism derives not from Hunt and Millais but from Dante Gabriel Rossetti. Burne-Jones’ work in the late 1850s i

A third man is positioned at the top of an exterior wall with a view into the inner courtyard but he too is asleep.

After the first year, Eteocles refused to step down, leading Polynices to raise an army of Argives captained by the eponymous Seven to take Thebes by force. This is where Aeschylus' tragedy starts.

The work represents a synthesis published and printed in two volumes (the 1st volume in 2002, the second one, in 2004) under the aegis of Mica Valahie Publishing House in Bucharest. Being elaborated on the basis of some documents discovered in the Romanian and foreign archives, the two volumes cover the period up to 1929 in the first volume and the period from 1929 to 2005 in the second one. The paper reveals the role and place of Romanian oil in the evolution of the national and worldwide history, especially during the World War between 1939 and 1945 and in the development of the so-called “cold war”. The book insists upon the prospects of the specific “black gold” evolution.In the addendum there are to be found some interesting documents and the complete bibliography of oil.
