Transcript English school of painting

Good morning! Glad to see you again. Today
we’ll speak a lot about art and its role in the
world culture. The theme of our lesson is “British
Painters”. Great Britain gave the world a lot of
talented people: writers, poets, scientists.
Our life seems to be impossible without art.
It really occupies an important part in our daily life.
Art offers us not only pleasure and amusement but it
is also a vehicle of culture and education.
Art penetrates into all spheres and sides of your life
and makes it brighter, richer and more intellectual.
People like and know different types of art.
Some of them are fond of painting.
Others have a special liking for music or they have
a passion for literature.
But all of us can’t help admiring the canvases of such
great painters as Thomas Gainsborough, Constable,
Hogarth, Rembrandt etc.
So, art unites different people, influences the
development of personality, makes our inner world
richer, feels our soul with different feelings.
It makes us stronger, enforces us in difficult
situations.
Time is flying, art is forever.

English school of painting Англійська школа живопису
The English school of
painting is an
expression for English
(or British) painters
who produced
characteristically
English paintings
Generally, the term
"school" is used to
designate a special
collection of
traditions and
processes, a
particular method, a
peculiar style in
design, and an
equally peculiar taste
in coloring -
all contributing to
the representation
of a national ideal
existing in the
minds of native
artists at the same
time
However, the term cannot be used in this way to
characterize English art,
because there is an absence of any national tradition that
strikes one most forcibly in studying English painting.
Each English painter seems to stand by himself isolated from his brother artists.
For the sake of brevity, all these separate manifestations
are grouped together under the name of "English school of
painting".

John Constable (1776-1837)
was fond of the place where he was born and spent his
childhood on the river Stour.
He saw very beautiful woods, greens in nature and,
being very talented, reflected nature's colors in his
sketches, which he then composed into pictures.
He painted the landscape without any changes and the
trees or other objects were in his paintings very true to
life.
He is said to be the first landscape painter in England
His direct
observation of
nature, his free
handling of paint,
the "light-dews-breezes-bloom-and freshness" of his
landscape were revolutionary:
his work leads from the Dutch masters of XVIIth century
to the French Impressionists.
