Postgraduate Certificate in Art of the Modern Age.

The art of the Modern Age refers to the artistic period that spanned approximately from the 15th century to the 18th century. During this period, the Renaissance and the Baroque were the main artistic movements.

The Renaissance was a period of rediscovery of the artistic and cultural values of classical antiquity that manifested itself in painting, sculpture and architecture. The Renaissance was characterized by the search for perfection in form, naturalistic representation and perspective in works of art.

The Baroque was a later artistic movement characterized by being more emotional, dramatic and ornamental than the Renaissance. This period saw great artistic productions such as the painting of large frescoes in churches and the creation of works of art for spiritual and religious contemplation.

Both movements had a great influence on the development of art in the Modern Age in Europe and throughout the world. During this period great works of art were produced in different disciplines, such as painting, sculpture, architecture, music and literature.

The techniques and materials used in the art of the Modern Age also evolved, especially in the field of painting. The technique of oil painting was developed, which allowed for a greater degree of realism and depth in painted works.

At the same time, research and experimentation in different techniques of engraving and lithography allowed the mass production of images and their reproduction on paper. In this way, artists were able to transmit their works to a wider audience.

In the academic humanities, the study of art of the Modern Age focuses on the analysis and interpretation of works of art, as well as the understanding of the historical, cultural and social processes that influenced their production. The study of art of the Modern Age is important for understanding the evolution of art and its relationship to society and culture in different periods.
