More about Trees in Artwork
Trees are a part of the natural landscape in any part of the world. Wood from trees is used as building material, trees give us oxygen to sustain our lives, and offer us their fruits for sustenance. Trees have been talked about in the past as mythological creatures and have made for some interesting stories. Forests are often thought of with a sort of reverence which gives them a certain appeal which is certainly seen in the paintings of many famous artists. Ancient woodlands are protected today for their necessity for our livelihood as a species, we simply cannot survive without them.
The tallest tree in the world is the Coast Redwood in the Redwood forest of California standing 115.56 m (379.1 ft) tall. The African Baobab in South Africa is the stoutest tree in the world coming in at 15.9 m (52 ft) in girth. Besides the size of these woodland wonders, their age is also astounding. The oldest tree in the world is the Great Basin Bristlecone Pine or Methusela which is over 4,800 years old.
One common theme found in several cultures has been the depiction of the World Tree and the Tree of Life, both cultural symbols for strength and growth as well as long life. Trees are valuable to us as humans - in a monetary sense as well as the fact that they help to keep us alive - providing us oxygen and cleansing the carbon dioxide from the air. Our selection of tree canvas art can help you recognize and value the importance that trees have in our lives.
Whereas traditional oil paintings were inherited or passed from a generation to the next, there came a time in the 19th century when artists began to come up with new ideas that challenged the set norms of paintings and drawing. Traditional forms of art slowly became out done by the upcoming new norms of artistic expression that would later be called modern art. Modern art in the 19th century basically arose from the challenges brought about by industrialization and its impacts to the society. Artists thus had to come with new ways of confronting these challenges in their works giving birth to modern contemporary art. This thus comes with the various forms or renditions of modern art that are available. Therefore, art lovers for modern contemporary oil paintings and canvas work seek paintings that deviate from the old painting styles typical of the pre-industrial revolution in the 19th century.
Great works are available with regard to modern art. There is a whole range of styles that are typical of modern contemporary work a buyer can look for when shopping for paintings. Artists such as Van Gogh did some great expressionist works that have been reproduced several times. Other depictions of canvas oil paintings from modern artists may range from presentations of landscapes, florals, and people to a myriad of other objects.
