Renaisance Art 2
.... his talent of light, color, contrast, and perspective didn’t go unnoticed. Artists now used what Masaccio had discovered in all of the paintings and drawings. And now the importance of lines was emphasized. Outlines in paintings made a huge difference in proportion and weight.

Many parents are saying that their child is behaving bad because of Rock, or that they committed suicide because a Rock star said to in one of their songs. That is proba .....

Roman Pantomime
....
evidence of the versatility of the pantomime in showing emotion and character can be seen in the words of Timocrates:
I know not what truth there may be in Plato’s analysis of the soul into the
three elements of spirit, appetite and reason: but each of the three is admirably
