Project Artists and writers of Great Britain and America

Слайд 2Art is long, life is short. Proverb
Each country is known by

the people which are bringing in the considerable contribution to

its development. The art is the integral part of spiritual culture and spiritual heritage of the people living not only in this country, but also behind its limits. The present art is eternal: passes from centuries per one century, from generation to generation.
I want to tell about the spheres closest to me of art - literature and painting. More precisely, about the people which have glorified England and America by the achievement in these spheres.

Слайд 5William Turner.
William Turner (1775-1851) began his activity in art as

a watercolour master. Light and atmosphere were his characteristic feature.

Turner is a su­per colourist. In 1805 he painted "The Shipwreck". He showed a terrible disas­ter at sea. Green was a colour that Turner particularly disliked.
In "Snow Storm" he reflected with the help of snow the idea of survival and even in our days it looks very prophetic. It is considered one of his most origi­nal paintings. He studies colour very seriously and is said to anticipate the art of Impressionists and abstract painters of the 20th century.
In his "Rain, Steam and Speed" (1844) he worked much on the colour in­terrelation.

Слайд 6John Constable
John Constable (1776-1837) was fond of the place where

he was born and spent his childhood on the river

Stour. He saw very beautiful woods, gre­ens in nature and, being very talented, reflected nature's colours in his sketches which he then composed into pictures. He painted the landscape without any changes and the trees or other objects were in his paintings very true to life. He is said to be the first landscape painter in England.

Слайд 7William Hogarth
William Hogarth (1697-1764) is one of the greatest English

painters. In his pictures he reflected social life and in

many of them the beauty of his pain­ting was accompanied by satire. The "Marriage-a-la-Mode", "The Election En­tertainment" were painted to show the life very satirically.
In 1742 Hogarth painted "The Graham Children" where he brilliantly used his delicate colours to show the charm of childhood.
