    500 BC - 500 AD I chose this picture because it shows something very common from that time period -- A decorated vase. Those vases would have pictures on them that would sometimes tell a story!

    Medieval Worldview

    500-1500
    I chose this piece of art because it shows how important religion was. It also shows that you didn't have a personal relationship with God, the bible was read to you.
  • 1300

    Renaissance Worldview

    1300-1700
    This painting symbolizes "the marriage of art, philosophy, and science that was a hallmark of the Italian Renaissance." Links to External Site
  • Enlightenment Worldview

    Enlightenment Worldview
    1650-1800
    The Enlightenment Time Period was very elegant and refined. This painting shows that. Their clothing is very sophisticated!
  • Romantic Worldview

    Romantic Worldview
    1780-1850
    How does this painting feel? Dramatic? I'd say it does. The painting is very sad and full of emotion.
  • Victorian Worldview

    Victorian Worldview
    1830-1900
    I chose this painting because it shows the reality of the world -- A family together, not necessarily all organized. This worldview was very much about reality, and this painting shows that.
  • Modern Worldview

    Modern Worldview
    1900-1970
    There had never really been this kind of art before, and the unnoficial slogan of the Modern Time Period was "Make it New." I think the artist did a good job of "Making it New!"
  • Post Modern

    Post Modern
    1968-1990
    In the Post Modern worldview, social, economic, and political structure were less fixed. There were less rules... This painting follows that in the sense that it's less "fixed."
  • Post-Post Modern

    Post-Post Modern
    2000-Now
    I chose this because it displays transcendence very well. I feel like a lot of people are pressing for "evolution" and robotic things. People believe whatever they want to believe.
