Framed Figurative Artwork
Just as the name suggests, figurative art is drawing its inspiration from real objects as opposed to abstract art that doesn’t care much about references to the real world. It is one of the earliest forms of art, being used extensively in antiquity but it didn’t lose ground to its modern counterparts over the course of time. FramedArt.com has Framed Figurative Art spanning over multiple centuries, sometimes in stark contrast with the abstract art, to highlight the differences between the two movements.
Framed Figurative Art focus mostly on paintings, although sculptures can also be included in this category, as long as they use real objects and beings as a source of inspiration. Even though animal and human figures represent the subject of figurative art, the movement is all encompassing and shouldn’t be restricted to these elements. Furthermore, even though this type of art tries to stay in touch with reality, many of its subjects are idealized, in terms of sticking to the real proportions.
The movement picked up speed in the 18th century, with Renaissance, Baroque and Mannerism producing most of the paintings now available in the collection of Framed Figurative Art. The first painter to embrace the genre and one of its strongest promoters was Nicolas Poussin who created masterpieces at the beginning of the 17th century. Better known for their paintings are Paul Cézanne, Gustav Courbet and Edouard Manet, who lived hundreds of years later but brought figurative arts to perfection.
