Great Known Works Of Art In The World

The term art is a general term that is used to refer to the image creations 
in many fields such as paintings, photography and even in architecture. 
Paintings require great skill in order to be able to develop a piece of work 
that is attractive and also one that carries in itself rich message content. 
The history of paintings is very developed whereby there has been the 
separation of the main components of paintings such that there is the 
science and craft categorization.

Creative paintings are subdivided further according to the painting 
technique and medium. The medium is the material from which the painting is 
made from. A painting form refers to the specific shape and design an artist 
takes to describe their works. Most of the ancient forms of paintings are 
mainly got from auction centers whereby they are highly valuable mainly due 
to their originality.

There are great paintings stocked in many museums and exhibition 
centers in the world today. One of the most famous painting is Mona Lisa 
painting done by an Italian based artist, Leonardo da Vinci.

This artist is one of the most known artists of all time and as such his 
works fetch a very good price in the auctions. The painting is commonly 
referred to as very enigmatic and hence has received a lot of speculation in 
the world all over. The painting is also featured in history as the theft of 
the century after it was stolen in 1911 but was recovered shortly.

Paul Cezanne is yet another widely known artist whose work has been 
exceedingly approved and is highly sought after by many people in the world 
today. His main areas of interest include nature and geometric art forms. 
His works include a beautiful painting of a flower vase that has magnificent 
color touches of purple and golden origin.

The paintings of Monet are also ranked among the leading artistic works of 
all times. The artist, Monet, mainly settled on nature and in specific on 
the water plant such as waterlillies. His work is still relevant even in the 
common day as it has never lost its originality.

The price of most of the ancient paintings is actually very high with the 
price of the cheapest one going for about $50 million. A closer look at the 
prices of specific works such as the card players painted in 1892 by George 
Embiricos hit the world record after it was bough for $254 million by Qatar 
Royal family at a private auction house.

Ancient paintings on culture are also still found even in the present day. A 
painting such as Diana and Actaeon by Titian, the great Italian artist is 
one perfect example of an ancient art on culture. The painting is mainly on 
how early Italians used to survive in the caves. However, some rare artistic 
paintings such as that of Titan are taken on world wide tour for displays 
whereby they are mainly aimed at getting familiarized with the populations. 
The tours are organized for specific countries in each continent.
