Classicism Translated from Latin - classicus - exemplary. The world is a rationally organized mechanism striving for reason and order. Classicism is characterized by symmetry, harmony, sublimity of the artistic language, the predominance of light colors. The ideal for the classics is antiquity.

slide 3

Features of the perception of the world in the XVII century
There is a contradiction between the ideals of humanism and harsh reality. Man has no control over himself and his destiny. A person depends on circumstances and time, is in perpetual motion and change. Tragic shades appear

slide 4

Pessimism and optimism of great writers
The writers of the 16th-17th centuries did not idealize man, they were fully aware of his weaknesses and vices. They saw how selfishness, passion for gain, cruelty continue to reign in the world, and they experienced it keenly. But still, in spite of everything, they wanted to believe that thanks to the mind and the best spiritual qualities of people, goodness would triumph in the world.

Cervantes and his Knight of the Sorrowful Image.
In 1605, a book was published, the fame of which quickly spread throughout Europe. We are talking about "The Cunning Hidalgo Don Quixote of Lamance" by Miguel Cervantes de Saavedra. The author of Don Quixote came from an impoverished noble family. All his life he fought, was in captivity, received three wounds, but never improved his financial situation. Poverty forced him to take up literature. He was the author of poems, plays and short stories, but Don Quixote brought him fame in his old age.
(1547-1616)

slide 6

Don Quixote was conceived as a parody of popular chivalric novels, after reading which, the half-impoverished nobleman Alonso Quixana began to dream of chivalric exploits. In search of glory, he goes on a journey with a simple peasant, elevated by him to the squire - Sancho Panza.

Slide 7

The image of Don Quixote is a symbol of courage and disinterestedness
The exploits of Don Quixote turn out to be ridiculous against the backdrop of real life: he takes inns for castles, maids for beautiful ladies, fights with windmills. However, irony gradually gives way to sympathy for the hero of the novel, who everywhere seeks to restore justice, help the weak, protect the offended.

Slide 14

baroque art
A new artistic style emerged in Italy. The Italian term meant "bizarre", "strange". In the 17th century, he quickly captured all of Europe, especially the Catholic countries. Baroque is full of movement, emotions, passions, religious ecstasy. He is characterized by emphasized decorativeness and entertainment; the imagination of artists and architects knew no bounds - they turned the facades of buildings and sculptural compositions into a semblance of flowing, seething and billowing waves

slide 15

In Spain, the 17th century was marked by the rise of religious painting.
Francisco Zurbaran
Jusepe Ribera

slide 16

The brightest representative of baroque architecture was Giovanni Lorenzo Bernini
Baroque was the favorite style of the Catholic Church. Bernini created the ensemble of the square in front of St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican.
(1598-1680)

Slide 17

Bernini was a talented sculptor who knew how to convey in his works:
the moment of the highest emotional stress in the sculpture "The Ecstasy of Saint Teresa"
moment of jerky movement, flight in the sculpture "Apollo and Daphne"

Slide 18

His painting seemed very unusual to his contemporaries because of the sharp contrasts of light and shadow. The characters of Caravaggio are full of mystery and significance, although they are just ordinary peasant youths.
One of the most interesting Italian artists of the 16th-17th centuries was Michelangelo da Caravaggio (1573-1610)

In the 17th century, the Dutch school of painting produced many excellent masters who worked in various genres.
He created many portraits commissioned by rich Amsterdam burghers, painted portraits of his relatives - his wife and son, and more than 60 self-portraits in different periods of his life.
Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn is the most prominent among them.

17th century - the heyday of classicism in literature and art

Slide 31

He was called the "Sun King".
Classicism took shape in the 17th century in France, reflecting the rise of absolutism, or absolute monarchy. Such a monarch, whose reign in France was the apogee of absolutism, was Louis XIV, king of the Bourbon dynasty.

slide 32

Classicism is an artistic system that has developed not only in literature, but also in painting, architecture, landscape art, and music.

Slide 33

IDEOLOGICAL PRINCIPLES OF CLASSICISM:
1. Strengthening the absolute monarchy, the monarch is the embodiment of the reasonable. 2. The highest dignity of a person is the fulfillment of duty, service to the state idea.

slide 34

AESTHETIC PRINCIPLES OF CLASSICISM: 1. Strict division into genres. 2. The logical harmony of the work: three unities: place, time, action 3. The main conflict: personal and civic interests, feeling and duty. 4. Inheritance of antiquity as a model. 5. Heroes of “one passion”, “images without faces”. They do not change, being the spokesmen for common truths. 6. The use of the common language was excluded.

The eighteenth century in Western Europe represents a period of transition from absolute monarchy in a number of countries to bourgeois society. It is often referred to as the Age of Enlightenment. France became the classical country of the Enlightenment and the brightest flourishing of artistic culture. In the first half and the middle of the 18th century, the “Rococo” or “Louis XV style” style, generated by French culture, spread, and realistic art also grew. Portrait of Louis XV

slide 3

Great value for the development of progressive ideas of culture of the XVIII century had the French Enlightenment. Religion, the understanding of nature, society, the state order - everything was subjected to the most merciless criticism: everything had to appear before the court of reason and either justify its existence or abandon it. French enlighteners, starting with J. Mellier, Montesquieu, Voltaire, Rousseau and ending with the encyclopedists led by Diderot, a galaxy of writers, including Lesage, Prevost, Marivaux, Beaumarchais, and masters of fine art in the person of Watteau, Chardin, Latour, Pigalle , Boucher, Greuze, Fragonard, Houdon, David spread French culture and French art throughout Europe, giving them that peculiar and unfading charm and value that captivate and cannot but interest contemporaries to this day.

The 18th century fine arts masters were in much closer contact with audiences and critics than in the past. They were required to use their work as a means of entertainment, encouraged to enjoy life. The most striking masters, characteristic of the playfully coquettish, festive, decorative painting that dominated court art in the first half of the 18th century during the Regency and the short reign of Louis XV, were the exquisitely elegant Francois de Troyes (1679-1752), the decoratively sensual Francois Lemoine ( 1688-1737), the graceful Charles Natoire (1700-1777), the graceful Charles Antoine Coypel (1694-1752), the mannered and unnatural Carl Vanloo (1705-1765) and the greatest Rococo painter Francois Boucher (1703-1770).

The art of the court portrait of the 30-50s of the XVIII century, responding to the tastes of the aristocracy, set itself the task of creating an outwardly elegant, decorative and sensual image of a model in the Rococo style. Among such portraits, the works of J. M. Nattier (1685-1766) stood out, who began his career as a historical painter, and then specialized in the so-called “mythological” portrait invented by him, which became very fashionable at that time. He depicted court ladies as nymphs, Diana, Venus and other ancient goddesses, conveying the resemblance extremely remotely and shamelessly flattering his models. Jean-Marc Nattier.

The most outstanding sculptural works of the first half of the century include two equestrian marble groups by Guillaume (First) Kustu, sculpted by him to decorate the pleasure park in Marly (1740-1745). Features of the transitional style from Rococo to Classicism, the search for a realistic interpretation of images emerged in the work of the most prominent master of sculpture in the middle of the 18th century - Jean Baptiste Pigalle (1714-1785).

Thus, starting from the middle of the 18th century and especially in the second half of the century, art is changing more and more, turning to the search for more truthful, realistic images. Honoré Fragonard (1732-1806) was an artist in whose multifaceted and controversial work one can observe the development of both the decorative tendencies of Rococo art and the deeply emotional, realistic trends of the second half of the 18th century.

The end of the XVIII century is characterized by the French bourgeois revolution of 1789-1794 and the beginning of a new period in the history of Europe. In the visual arts, this time is marked by the dominance of classicism; the brightest and most advanced artist of the revolution, Louis David, affirmed the harsh and courageous ideals of the struggle for public duty, for the freedom of the individual. His energetic artistic language was concise and restrained. He expressed feelings of patriotism and civic prowess. Louis David "Death"

The age of the Enlightenment, the age of the development of intellectual thought, could not but be interested in the expression in art of the individual, the psychological. Masterful, penetrating portraits by Latour and Perronnot, Chardin and Aved, Hogarth, Reynolds and Gainsborough, Greuze and Ghislandy influenced the development of the portrait in the 19th century. Without those truthful, poetic and direct images of nature, which were given by landscape painters of the 18th century, such as J. Vernet and G. Robert, Canaletto and Guardi, Fragonard and Gainsborough, the achievements of landscape painting of the 19th century are also inconceivable. And, finally, the contribution made by Chardin and Greuze, Hogarth and Chodovetsky, Crespii Bonito to the development of realistic genre painting, which will become so widespread only in the next century, is indisputable. Thus, we see that the 18th century brought a lot of new things to the fine arts of Western Europe, both in terms of the development of painting techniques and the further development of various genres in art. In addition to the successes achieved by many individual artists, one cannot fail to note those factors that had a positive impact on the organization of artistic education.

Slide 27

The eighteenth century is characterized by the widespread creation of academies of arts, institutions that brought together the greatest masters of fine art and trained young artists. The Academy was founded in Dresden in 1697, in Berlin in 1699, in Vienna in 1726, in Copenhagen in 1754, in Venice in 1755, in St. Petersburg in 1758, and in London in 1768.

Slide 28

The eighteenth century is the time of the formation of aesthetics as a science, holistic aesthetic systems are being created: the enlighteners led by Diderot and Lessing, the German idealists, Kant, Hegel and others. The first systematic histories of art are published (Winckelmann). Winkelman

Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778)

slide 30

Jean-Jacques Rousseau (fr. Jean-Jacques Rousseau; June 28, 1712, Geneva - July 2, 1778, Ermenonville, near Paris) - French writer, thinker, composer. He developed a direct form of government of the people by the state - (direct democracy), which is used to this day, for example in Switzerland. The baroque rationalism of the 18th century was replaced by sentimentalism, the main feature of which was a new cultural stream, the source of which was feeling. It has transformed a cultured person, his attitude towards himself, towards people, towards nature and towards culture. The most original and influential representative and conductor of this trend was Rousseau. It put him in antagonism to the representatives of rationalism - the philosophers of the XVIII century. But, since Rousseau adopted rationalism in politics and introduced feeling and passion into it, he became the main forerunner of that radical upheaval that ended the 18th century. Rousseau was also a musicologist, composer and botanist.

Slide 31

Childhood A Frenchman by birth, Rousseau was a native of Protestant Geneva, which preserved until the 18th century. its strictly Calvinistic and municipal spirit. The mother died in childbirth. Father - Isaac Rousseau (1672-1747), watchmaker and dance teacher, was acutely worried about the loss of his wife. Jean-Jacques was a favorite child in the family, from the age of seven he read with his father until the dawn "Astrey" and the biographies of Plutarch;

slide 32

He was a student of a notary, an engraver, studied at a monastery, worked as a footman, house secretary and mentor, then communicated with encyclopedists. So he's from the very common man came to a famous person of that period. In the summer of 1749, Rousseau went to visit Diderot, who was imprisoned in the Château de Vincennes. On the way, having opened a newspaper, I read an announcement from the Dijon Academy about a prize on the topic “Did the revival of sciences and arts contribute to the purification of morals”. A sudden thought struck Rousseau; the impression was so strong that, according to his description, he lay in some kind of intoxication under a tree for half an hour; when he came to, his vest was wet with tears. The thought that dawned on Rousseau contains the whole essence of his worldview: "enlightenment is harmful and culture itself is a lie and a crime." In response, Rousseau was awarded the prize; the entire enlightened and refined society applauded its accuser.

Slide 33

In 1761 the "New Eloise" appeared in print, in the spring of the following year - "Emil", and a few weeks later - "The Social Contract" ("Contratsocial"). During the printing of "Emile" Rousseau was in great fear: he had strong patrons, but he suspected that the bookseller would sell the manuscript to the Jesuits and that his enemies would distort its text. "Emil", however, was published; the storm broke a little later. The Parliament of Paris, preparing to pronounce a verdict on the Jesuits, considered it necessary to condemn the philosophers, and sentenced "Emil", for religious free-thinking and indecency, to be burned by the hand of the executioner, and his author to imprisonment. The Prince of Conti made it known at Montmorency; the Duchess of Luxembourg ordered to wake Rousseau and persuaded him to leave immediately. Rousseau, however, tarried all day and nearly fell victim to his slowness; on the road, he met bailiffs sent for him, who politely bowed to him.

Philosophy The main philosophical works of Rousseau, which set out his social and political ideals: "New Eloise", "Emil" and "Social Contract". Rousseau, for the first time in political philosophy, tried to explain the causes of social inequality and its types, to comprehend the contractual mode of origin of the state in a different way. He believed that the state arises as a result of a social contract. According to the social contract, the supreme power in the state belongs to all the people. The sovereignty of the people is inalienable, indivisible, infallible and absolute. The law, as an expression of the general will, acts as a guarantee of individuals against arbitrariness on the part of the government, which cannot act in violation of the requirements of the law. Thanks to the law as an expression of the general will, relative property equality can also be achieved. Rousseau solved the problem of the effectiveness of the means of control over the activities of the government, substantiated the rationality of the adoption of laws by the people themselves, considered the problem of social inequality and recognized the possibility of its legislative solution. It was not without the influence of Rousseau's ideas that new democratic institutions arose, such as a referendum, a popular legislative initiative, and such political demands as a possible reduction in the term of deputy powers, a mandatory mandate, and the recall of deputies by voters.

Compositions Leaving aside special treatises on botany, music, languages, and literary works Rousseau - poems, comedies and letters, the rest of Rousseau's writings can be divided into three groups (chronologically they follow one after another in this order): 1. accusing the age, 2. instructions, 3. self-defense

Pedagogical ideas Rousseau's worldview is characterized by dualism: recognition of the primordial existence of spirit and matter. In the field of epistemology - sensualist. Recognized the presence of a higher power that created the whole world. Defended the idea of ​​equality of people, their natural rights to freedom. He advocated the elimination of large property. Small property as a result of personal labor was considered inviolable. He put forward the idea of ​​free education, which follows nature, helps it, eliminating bad habits. Education should be natural, or nature-like, i.e. Appropriate to the age of the child, and carried out in natural conditions in the bosom of nature. He opposed authoritarianism and denied punishment, believing that children should be limited by the immutable laws of nature, and not the prohibitions of the educator. Two properties of human nature play a special role in education: the ability to perceive the world through sensations and self-love. The main factors of education. 1. Nature - ensures the development and improvement of the senses and abilities. 2. People - accustoming a person to use the development of his natural abilities, the development of the senses. 3. Objects - encountering things enriches personal experience child. The task of the educator. Tactfully, imperceptibly for the child, direct all his activities, form his interests and views. The result of such an upbringing is a free-thinking person who lives by his own work. His concept of education J.-J. Rousseau expounded in the work in which he concentrated his thoughts on the innate goodness of man: this is Emil, or On Education (1762), a treatise that he considered the best and most important of his works and in which his pedagogical views are expressed through artistic images. It should be noted that no other work devoted to the upbringing of children, either before or after Emil, has had such strong influence on the development of pedagogical thought.

Rousseau's music belongs to several musical works, including operas. Rousseau's most significant and famous musical composition is the opera The Village Sorcerer (Fr. LeDevinduVillage), written under the influence of the Italian opera school on his own French libretto. The first performance of the opera took place on 10 October 1752 at Fontainebleau in the presence of the king. Interestingly, the libretto of Rousseau's opera, loosely translated into German, formed the basis of W. A. ​​Mozart's opera "Bastienne and Bastienne".

Slide 39

In the summer of 1777, Rousseau's health began to inspire fear among his friends. In the spring of 1778, one of them, the Marquis de Girardin, took him to his dacha in Chateau de Ermenonville. At the end of June a concert was arranged for him on an island in the middle of a park; Rousseau asked to be buried in this place. On July 2, Rousseau died suddenly.

The predominance of exquisite curved lines, swirling movements, golden, bright tones. In Russia, the development of the Baroque falls on the first half and the middle of the 17th century.

There is always a powerful sense of life in his works. His characters are full of spiritual strength and energy. Rubens' compositions are always imbued with movement. Bodily power, intensity of passions and feelings - such is the world of Rubens' paintings, a sublime, heroic world, but connected with earthly reality. Peter Paul Rubens 1577 - 1640 The greatest Flemish painter of the 17th century, a brilliant representative of the Baroque style in Europe.

Gamma of love Gilles Jean - Antoine Watteau 1684 - 1721 He became famous as a master of the image of "gallant festivities". Watteau created his own unique image in art - this is an aristocratic society in the park, playing music, dancing, idle; a life in which there seems to be no action, no plot - scenes of a carefree life, conveyed with refined grace. There is neither human grief nor violent joy here, it is rather a masquerade, and not real life.

Classicism Large European style of the 17th - early 19th century, oriented towards ancient art and the Renaissance. Characteristic features: harmony and measure in everything, balance and symmetry, statics, preference for clear geometric shapes (circle, ellipse, square, rectangle). A stable compositional and coloristic system for solving a painting canvas with a division into three color and spatial planes (brown - first, green - middle, blue - far). The most complete classicist system developed in France in the 17th - mid-18th centuries. A new wave of classicism falls on the beginning of the 19th century, Rome becomes the center of classic art. In Russia, the flowering of classicism falls on the last third of the 18th - the first third of the 19th century.

During the period of hostility between the cities of Rome and Alba Longa, three brothers from the Horatii family had to go to the death duel with childhood friends from the Curiatii family. David emphasizes the unyielding determination of the young men to fulfill their duty: Father Horatii raises his swords, and the brothers swear to win or die.

The Sower 1850 Gatherers 1857 Through the expressive almost sculptural chiaroscuro of the sculpting figures of people in large undivided masses and the restrained power of color, Millet seeks to achieve a generalizing typification of heroes in the belief that it is the collective "type that is the deepest truth in art." Francois Millet 1814 - 1875 Coming from the people, the artist is rightfully considered the largest representative of the truly folk genre in the art of France in the 19th century.

Message on the topic: "10 interesting facts from the life and work of Francois Millet" 1 Jean-Francois Millet was born on October 4, 1814. In the village of Grouchy, in Normandy. His father was an organist at the local church. Millet worked on a farm from an early age, but at the same time he received a good education, studied Latin and retained a love of literature throughout his life. From childhood he showed the ability to draw. 2 In 1839 Millet received an order for a posthumous portrait of the former mayor of Cherbourg, but the work was rejected due to little resemblance to the deceased. To make ends meet, the artist earned some money by painting signs. 3 In 1853 He married a second time to Catherine Lemaire (his first wife, Pauline Ono, died of tuberculosis in 1844). Millais had nine children from this marriage. 4 At the Salon of 1848. Millais showed the painting "Flower". The canvas received laudatory reviews, and it was purchased by the Minister of the French government, Alexandre Ledre-Roller. The following year, he fled the country to the United States - the painting disappeared with him. It was even believed that it burned down during a fire in Boston in 1872. In 1972 - exactly 100 years after the alleged death - the original "Flower" was found in the USA, in the attic of one of the houses. 5 In 1860 Millais signed a contract with E. Blanc and A. Stevens, under which he undertook to supply them annually with 25 paintings for sale. In 1866 The artist broke the contract, considering it burdensome. But numerous exhibitions organized by art dealers had already done their job, and Millet's popularity continued to grow. 6 In 1889, Millet's painting "Angelus" was put up for sale, the Louvre and a consortium of American sales agents fiercely fought for it. The Americans won, having paid for the canvas a record amount for those times - 580,000 francs. In 1909 it was repurchased and donated to the Louvre by one of the French moneybags. 7 Images of peasant life inspired many artists who followed Millet. Like Pissarro, Van Gogh and Gauguin, Millet was looking for the ideal of a patriarchal world in peasant life, not yet infected with the putrefactive breath of civilization. 8 Millais never worked en plein air. His paintings were always carefully thought out, weighed, and all his scenes of "true life" were born in the imagination, having nothing to do with the experience of direct observation. 9 Millet's paintings were promoted as an example to follow in communist countries, where culture was built on the principles of "socialist realism". 10 Surprisingly, there are more paintings by Millet in the US than in his homeland, France.
