Art is a source of inspiration and evolution for a society! Many great artists have managed to inspire people through art and bring about important social revolutions at a time when censorship has left no room for expression. There are many important artists who have made history because of their work and contribution. Here are eight of the greatest painters of all time!
- Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519)
Renaissance painter, scientist, inventor and more. Da Vinci is one of the most famous painters in the world due mainly to Mona Lisa and the Last Supper. In fact, this May marks the 500th anniversary of his death, and many events in his honor are taking place across Europe. - Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890)
Dutch post-impressionist painter. Lively, his work was not a success, nor was he recognized as an important artist, but after his death, his fame spread and he was recognized as one of the most important painters of all time. - Rembrandt (1606-1669)
Dutch teacher and one of the greatest painters, most of whom admire him for his lively realism. Rembrandt played masterfully with the light in his paintings. One of his most famous works is the Jewish bride. His name symbolizes the period of the “golden age” of the Netherlands, to which his work belongs in terms of time. - Michelangelo (1475-1564)
Italian sculptor, painter, architect and poet of the Renaissance, who greatly influenced the development of Western art. Today he is recognized as one of the greatest creators in the history of art. - Claude Monet (1840-1926)
French Impressionist painter. Claude Monet was one of the most important representatives of the Impressionist movement. - Pablo Picasso (1881-1973)
Spanish, modern “cubist” painter. In addition to being a painter, he was an engraver, sculptor, poet, set designer and playwright. His contribution to the shaping and evolution of modern and contemporary art has been capitalist and invaluable. - Raphael (1483-1520)
Italian painter. Raphael, Da Vinci and Michael Angelos are the top three Renaissance painters. Raphael was born in the duchy of Urbino, which at the time was an important spiritual center. - Salvador Dali
Dali is a very eccentric figure in modern art, a friend of the famous poet Federico Garcia Lorca. He was inspired by the current of symbolism, surrealism and especially dandaism, that is, deliberate irrationality. The works of the great creator are clearly influenced by Freud’s theories about the world of dreams. In the early 1930s, Daly invented the Paranoid-Critical Method, a surrealistic technique for accessing the unconscious. This is why in all his works he uses associations and connects images that are logically unrelated to each other. His most important work, The Obsession with Memory, is also one of the greatest works of all time.
