In the New York Times bestselling novel called The Outliers: The Story of Success, Malcolm Gladwell challenges the way that success is typically viewed by introducing the idea of an “outlier.” Gladwell defines an outlier as “something that is situated away from or classed differently from a main or related body (Gladwell 1).” Throughout the book, he goes on to explain that success is much more than hard work; it also has to do with what he calls “The 10,000-Hour Rule” or

Much knowledge of the ancients should have been lost, but thanks to the Church and her monasteries they were not. Many monasteries were built in Europe, and a mix of prayer and manual labor could be found in each. Some of the manual labor the monks performed was the copying of books onto more durable surfaces to be preserved. “They chiefly reproduced the Bible and holy books, but they also made copies of the works of pagan antiquity,” which allowed much ancient writing to be carefully preserved.

Art is able to evoke different feelings and emotions to each person that sets their eyes on it. The act of ‘looking’ is simple, but a lot comes from it. Where the eyes are first drawn to, the duration that the eyes are focused on a specific detail, and the thoughts that flood one’s brain when viewing art is all significant. These actions say more than the piece itself, it reveals emotions of both the artist and the audience. Art can be expressed through infinite forms, but the underlying importance is not with the art itself. It represents a place in time, displaying what was noteworthy to an individual in their own life. It serves as a lasting creation representative of human imagination with the ability to bring out a multitude of emotions from whoever views it. When art is created it represents the creativity of the human mind compacted into a physical object. Art has little usage aside from pure observation, yet it has prevailed throughout time, showing its importance to humanity. Art provides a lens into humanity, showcasing the human ability over time. When studied through history, art is a view into the development of humans and their interests. Through something as basic as commonly using symmetry to transitioning to asymmetry, the European’s perspective following the Renaissance is revealed. The making of art is solely up to one individual and their creativity. It is the pinnacle of

In the brothers’ early work, there are some minor deviations from the predetermined standards of works, such as Books of Hours and Bibles Moralisée that, though insignificant in comparison to Les Très Riches Heures, ought to be observed. These creative expressions, though decidedly elaborate when likened to the work of their predecessors – even their contemporaries - were constrained significantly, by restriction of resources, principally pigment and gold, as well as by a lack of experience and, perhaps, artistic freedom.

When we look at the history of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, we always like to use the confinement of thinking and the liberation of ideas to sum up the two, especially in the art, the medieval paintings are often used in dark colors, deformed three-dimensional concept Showing the real world, and often less a bit human nature. And after the Renaissance, the painting masters are the opposite of it. I am not here to comment on their good or bad, but from the artistic point of view, to explore whether a good form of art needs to reflect the community and a wide range of civilizations

It has been stated that the actual painting was in poor condition when it arrived at the Yale University Art Galleria studio. It was covered in yellow varnish and showed signs of flaking and cracking. Not only was the painting in poor condition when it

Throughout the vast history of art, historians can find connections throughout the centuries. Artists from the beginning of humankind have been inspired by the world around them. From the Apollo 11 stones to present day, history and culture have provided inspiration and have been the focus of various pieces. Examining artwork from the 15th-18th century, viewers can be shown a whole world that would be unknown to us without these artist’s contributions. History, religion, and cultural events have sculpted the art world, and we can observe this through many pieces during the 15th-18th centuries.

Art in the middle ages was different based off of location and time period. There are three main styles of art, Byzantine Art, Romanesque Art, and Gothic Art. While most of the art was religious Catholic paintings, they also did things like sculpting, metal work, engraving, stained glass windows, and manuscripts. Byzantine Art was from a time period called, “the Dark Ages,” and this art was usually non-realistic and symbolized. Romanesque Art started right after the Dark Ages and was very religious. Gothic Art was the last form of art before Modern Art and was very realistic. After all three of these forms af art there was the emergence of the Renaissance, a religious and social art. The Renaissance also rose Europe out of the dark ages and

     Examples of Romanesque sculpture are dated back to the last decade of the eleventh century and then first decades of the twelfth. “The primary source of artistic patronage was provided by the monastic institutions, for whom sculptors executed large relief carvings for the decoration of church portals and richly ornate capitals for cloisters” (Cleaver 156)

For over two thousand years, various philosophers have questioned the influence of art in our society. They have used abstract reasoning, human emotions, and logic to go beyond this world in the search for answers about arts' existence. For philosophers, art was not viewed for its own beauty, but rather for the question of how art and artists can help make our society more stable for the next generation. Plato, a Greek philosopher who lived during 420-348 B.C. in Athens, and Aristotle, Plato’s student who argued against his beliefs, have no exceptions to the steps they had to take in order to understand the purpose of art and artists. Though these two philosophers made marvelous discoveries about the existence of art, artists, and
