PRE-HISTORIC ERA
Paintings were found inside the caves and believed to be their way of
communicating each other. It may also be for religious or for ceremonial purposes
and more of an artefact of the archaeological evidence than a true picture of human’s
first created art. Pre-historic drawing showed animals that were usually correct in
proportion.
Sculptures were believed to be a product or result of natural erosion and not
of human artistry according to archaeologists. Materials used in sculptures vary
according to region and locality while carving may have mythological or religious
significance.
Architectures from the early age developed a form based on Megaliths (a big
rock) from the Greek word lithos (stone) and megas (big). Although these structures
that survived from prehistory might not be what we would normally think of as
architecture, but these buildings still inspire awe today, through the mysteries of
their meaning, the intricacy or scale of their design, or the ingenuity of their
construction.
ANCIENT EGYPT
Paintings were believed to make the deceased life place pleasant giving
importance of life after death and the preservation of the knowledge of the past. Most
paintings were stylized, symbolic and shows profile view of an animal or a person
with themes that included the journey of the deceased gods to the underworld. The
main colors used in this period were red, black, blue, gold and green derived from
mineral pigments that can withstand strong sunlight without fading.
Sculptures were believed to have symbolic elements such as forms,
hieroglyphics, relative size, location, materials, color, actions and gestures were
widely used. Their tombs required the most extensive use of sculpture.
Characteristics includes; symbolism to represent the gods where composite creature
with animal heads on human body, relief compositions were arranged in horizontal
lines to record an event or represent an action, most of the time the gods were shown
larger than humans. The kings are larger than the followers and the dead larger than
the living, empty spaces were filled with figures or hieroglyphics and all individual
components were all brought to the plane of representation and laid out like writing.
Architectures were developed during the pre-dynastic period of 4,000 BC.
Characteristics of Egyptian Architecture includes; thick sloping walls with few
openings to obtain stability, exterior and interior walls along with the columns and
piers were covered with hieroglyphics and pictorial frescoes with carvings painted in
brilliant colors, ornamentations were symbolic like scarab (sacred beetle), solar disk,
vulture and common motifs such as palm leaves, buds, lotus flower and papyrus
plants and temples were aligned with astronomically significant events with precise
measurements like solstices (sun appears to stand still on the first day of winter) and
equinox (a time or date when day and night are of equal length).

CLASSICAL GREEK
Paintings during this period were most commonly found in vases, panels and
tomb. They depict natural figures with dynamic compositions and reveal a grasp of
linear perspective and naturalistic representation. Most of the subjects were battle
scenes, mythological figures and everyday scenes. Most common methods of Greek
painting are Fresco or water based painting and Encaustic or wax based painting.
Sculptures were tensed and stiff and their bodies were hidden within
enfolding robes or draping during the early times but it had finally evolved and
showed all the points of human anatomy and proportion after three centuries of
experiments.
Architectures showed temples consisting of a central shrine or room in an
aisle surrounded by rows and columns. These buildings were designed in one of three
architectural style or orders; Doric, Ionic and Corinthian.
ROMAN ERA
Paintings were mostly copied or imitated from Hellenic Greek paintings.
Fresco technique was used in brightly colored backgrounds, division of the wall into
a multiple rectangular area (tic-tac-toe design) and multi-point perspective as well
as a tropme-l’-oeil effect. Roman painting has a wide variety of subjects including
animals, everyday life, still life, mythological subjects, portraits and landscapes
(main innovation of Roman painting from Greek painting).
Sculptures were made of monumental terra-cotta. They did not attempt to
compete with the free-standing Greek works of history and mythology but rather
produced reliefs in the Great Roman triumphal columns with continuous narrative
reliefs around.
Architectures from this era were sturdy stone structures both for use and to
perpetuate their glory. The emperors erected huge halls and arenas for public games,
baths and procession with gigantic arches of stones, bricks and concrete or with
barrel vaults.
BYZANTINE PERIOD
Paintings were lively styles which had been invented in Greek and Rome but
this time for Christian subjects. By the 11th century, the Greek and Oriental styles
seem to blend together in splendid, imposing images which ornamented the churches
in large and small forms.
Sculptures were religious, everyday life scenes and motifs from nature.
Animals were used as symbols such as doves, deer, and peafowl while some had
acrostic signs that contained a great theological intent or significance.
Architectures from this period had a lot in common with the early Christian
architecture where mosaic decoration was perfected as was the use of clerestory to
bring light in from high windows. Byzantine’s advancement in developing the dome
created a new style in global architecture.

ROMANESQUE ERA
Paintings have remarkable variety of artistic traditions where largely placed
mosaics on the walls of the churches that follow a strict frontal pose with modelling
and treatment of faces that follow Byzantine convention while the refreshingly
decorative feeling came from southern French styles. It showed Mozarabic influence
(Arabize influence) through elongated oval faces, large staring and fierce eyes, long
noses and figures against flat colored bands with heavy outlining.
Sculptures were pieces of reliquaries, altar frontals, crucifixes and devotional
images. Small individual works of art were generally made of costly materials for
royal and aristocratic patrons. Lightweight devotional images were usually carried
during processions both inside and outside the churches.
Architectures from this period showed doorways of Romanesque churches
that were often grand sculpted portals or door openings. Wood or metal doors were
surrounded by elaborate stone sculptures arranged in zones to fit architectural
elements. Many castles were built during this period but were greatly outnumbered
by the churches. Romanesque style in England was traditionally referred to as
Norman architecture.
GOTHIC ERA
Paintings have been confined in the illumination of manuscript pages and the
paintings of frescoes on the walls of the churches were of cosmopolitan style in
elegant and sophisticated manner. Subjects of their paintings usually depict popular
legends and love stories with patterns like mille fleur or thousand flowers showed
influence which may have been due to the Crusades. Stained glass windows were
created to transform the vast stone interiors with warm colors to instruct Christian
in their faith.
Sculptures had a greater freedom of style. They no longer lay closely against
the wall but begun to project outward. Figures were given their own particular
attitudes instead of being set into particular patterns but were livelier and more
realistic at the same time.
Architectures from this period included two new devices such as pointed
arch which enabled builders to construct much higher ceiling vaults and stone
vaulting hauled on a network of stone ribs which were supported by piers and
clustered pillars. These elements together formed a structurally and aesthetically
integrated system or style which made the primary engineering innovation and
design component of Gothic architecture.

Summary
This module aims to develop the critical thinking skills and analyzing abilities
of the learners through various activities which aid in achieving the competency of the
week which is to analyze art elements and principles in the production of work
following the style of a western and classical art and identify the distinct
characteristics of arts during the different art periods.
Western classical arts were classified into three timelines; Ancient Arts which
includes Pre-Historic and Egyptian Eras, Classical Arts through Greek and Roman
Eras and Medieval Arts which was represented by Byzantine, Romanesque and Gothic
Eras.
Pre-historic era showed paintings as a way of communicating, sculptures as a
product of natural erosion and not of human artistry while architecture ignited man’s
imagination through megalithic monuments. Egyptian paintings emphasized on the
importance of life after death, sculptures that symbolized and represented the gods
and architecture that were structurally stable and astronomically significant and
scientific in nature.
Greek paintings used vases, panels and tombs and introduced methods of
painting such as Fresco and Encaustic, sculptures that showed all points of human
anatomy and proportion and emphasized on the representation of movement for
dramatic effects while architecture that highlighted buildings such as temples
surrounded by rows and columns thus introducing three architectural style or orders
(Doric, Ionic and Corinthian). Roman paintings were copied or imitated from Hellenic
Greek paintings but gave more importance on landscape paintings and introduced
mosaic painting, sculptures were made of monumental terra-cotta and produced
reliefs in the Great Roman triumphal columns and architectural designs that built
sturdy stones both for use and to perpetuate their glory.
Byzantine period emphasized on paintings, sculptures and architecture with
Christian subjects. Romanesque paintings emphasized on largely placed mosaics on
the walls of churches, sculptural pieces were reliquaries, altar frontals, crucifixes and
devotional images while architecture that were evident on doorways of churches or
grand sculpted portals. Gothic paintings showed frescoes on the walls of the churches
in cosmopolitan style, elegant and sophisticated manner, sculptures had great
freedom of style and begun to project outward while architectural designs included
two new devices such as pointed arch and stone vaulting.
