Art: The Timeless Treasure
By Tammie Bairen

Since the beginning of time, art has been part of our world through painting, drawing, sculpture, dance, theater, architecture, and more. Though the style has changed dramatically over the centuries, artists have created beautiful and interesting works of art. This course will cover the major periods in art from the fifth century BC (ancient Greece) to 1870 (the years directly preceding Impressionism). Discussion of each style will include painting and sculpture, as well as architecture, since buildings were created to exemplify the prominent style at the time. Students will be introduced to artists, where applicable, and will have an opportunity to practice each style on their own. Additional activities will be provided for further learning.

• Classical
• Romanesque
• Gothic
• Renaissance
• Baroque
• Rococo
• Neoclassical
• Romantic
• Realism

Note: the dates of each movement are approximate as different sources use different dates.

Parents’ Note: It is recommended students not be permitted to search on their own for artwork. Various images will be provided in this lesson. If students would like to search for more, consider searching for them and allowing them to look once you have found an image that is acceptable.
