Art
Appreciation is the knowledge and understanding of the
universal and timeless qualities that characterise all
great art.
As
an artist, the more you appreciate and understand about
the art from different eras, movements, styles and techniques,
the better you can develop, evaluate and improve your
own work. If your interest in art is simply for your
personal enjoyment, a greater knowledge of art history
and an understanding of pictorial elements, such as
composition and technique, should increase your appreciation
of art and enhance the pleasure you derive from looking
at it.
The

artists and artworks associated with various art movements
and themes.
