What was the first painting based on linear perspective?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It is believed that the first painter to use linear perspective was Polygonus, in 5th Century BC Greece. We cannot be certain because Greeks painted only on wooden boards, none of which survive. The first modern painting to depict linear perspective was Masaccio's "The Tribute Money" which was done in Florence, Italy in the early 15th Century. It depicts a new testament story.

Lots of very famous artists lived in the 1800s. Degas, Renoir, Cassatt, Gauguin, Cezanne, Manet, Monet.

Degas is famous for his fascination with ballerinas, and Renoir has painted many famous painting including "Young Girls at the Piano". Mary Cassatt's pieces are almost all centered on women. Gauguin's artwork is very unique, because the people in his paintings were black. Cezanne and Manet are both famous, and lots of Monet's pieces have beautiful water lilies from his garden in them.

The 1800s was a very good time for art.

How did people react to Henri Matisse's art?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In general not in favour of it. They didn't call him 'fauve' for nothing in his early artistic years. The word fauve meaning 'wild' was given to him and his fellow colleagues after starting the impressionistic period with extremely bright colours later called fauvism. Around that time especially academic work like Bouguereau's was popular. People often thought Matisse an incapable painter.
