Military Honours Being Paid to General Georges de Villebois-Mareuil by the British at the Cemetery of Boshof, Illustration from Le Petit Journal, 29th April 1900
Newspapers and illustrations are not only suitable for reading and as explanations of certain facts, but as a mural perfectly capture the spirit of the times. Unlike writers and scientists, painters are dependent on putting their feelings and sensations on the canvas with paint. They have only pictorial art at their disposal to convey the intent and content of their art to viewers.
Influence on art history.
With the development of print media and photography, a style gradually emerged that registered a major influence on the discipline of art history. While art historians rather sneer at this style and deny it any raison d'être in the field of art history, enthusiasts find newspapers and illustrations in the form of wall decorations to enrich their living spaces.
The various stylistic devices of illustration.
The illustration legend, in the form of a short and precise caption commenting on the content of each image, also falls into this area. Another stylistic device is the editorial illustration. These editorial illustrations optionally reproduce entire covers of individual newspapers, but also individual articles or pictures. Regardless of whether they are entire newspaper clippings, captions, individual articles or images, they all have one thing in common: they transport the viewer back to a bygone era, they evoke nostalgic feelings and lend a certain intellectual flair to living spaces. For even if art historians dismiss this style as a popular fad, however, it is not a banal painting of canvases, but small works of art that invite the viewer to engage with the respective content.
No classification
This popular art movement cannot be attributed to any particular art period and therefore the artists are not classified as, for example, the Romantics or Impressionists. However, many illustrations were created in the 19th century. With newspapers and illustrations, enthusiasts can not only capture the spirit of the times, but also take a journey through history. In the category /category/Zeitungen and illustrations.html you will find newspapers and illustrations in the form of color lithographs, lithographs, engravings, hand-colored etchings and drypoint etchings. Popular artists of this style are Rembrandt van Rijn, Alfred Robert Quinton, Achille Beltrame and John Constable.
