Art beyond the west





In art beyond the west, you can see that their art was based on the king's doing and their god like Buddha. The art that caught my attention is the head of a King on 4th century in Sassanian Period. These Arts were the glorified image of the King who was identified as the unifying force that holds the empire together and represents the authority of the Crown. The King dominates the court scenes, and is present in all Hunting and Banquet scenes carved in the mountain or on most items such as ruby encrusted metal Vases and artifacts.




And that's how I'm amazed to that art in the ART BEYOND THE WEST.

Baroque period, era in the of the western arts roughly coinciding with the 17th century. It's earliest manifestation, which occurred in Italy, while in some regions, notably in Germany and colonial South America, certain of its culminating achievements did not occur in 18th century. The work that distinguishes the Baroque period is stylistically complex, even contradictory. In general, however, the to evoke emotional states by appealing to the senses, often in dramatic ways,underlies its manifestations. Some of the qualities most frequently associated with the baroque are grandeur, sensuous richness,drama, vitality, movement, tension, emotional exuberance, and tendency to blur distinctions between the various arts. Baroque arts are incredible and amazing.
