The exhibition, entitled " Western Landscape Paintings from the 16th Century to the 19th Century, introduced to Hong Kong for the first time a collection of artwork from the famous Louvre Museum of Paris. Some of the greatest masterpieces of Western art from the lime of the Renaissance up through the 19th century were on display. The exhibit was even more meaningful because it showcased a total of 70 pieces by famous artists such as Delacroix, Corot, Goya, Watteau and Millet among others.
The theme of the exhibit was " Sympathy Between Nature and Humans, " and the 70 pieces of art highlighted this special relationship over a 400-year period. Nature has long been a stimulus for artists, and landscapes depicting nature began to emerge in the 17th century. By the 19th century, these paintings had become more detailed and eventually led to the birth of impressionism.
One of the best-known painters of these detailed landscapes was Jean Baptiste Camille Corot. Done in the mid-9th century, Corot’ s works show the detailed neo-classical traditions of the past as well as the more creative hints of impressionism. His " Tivoli Les Jardins de la villa d’ Este, " which was seen at the exhibit, is a mystical representation of the famous Italian gardens created through precise but poetic brushstrokes.
The many portraits on display continued the exhibit’ s theme. These detailed paintings of humans are accented by equally beautiful background scenery. The technique shows a style unique to this period of Western art. For example, the portrait of "Diana Bathing" by Francois Boucher, shows how the background scenery is just as important as the model. Boucher’s lavish brushstrokes and rich colors create a luxurious backdrop for Diana. The painting gives a glimpse into the Rococo taste, which was characterized by the elegance, grace and playfulness of the early 18th century.
In addition to the exhibition, the Hong Kong Heritage Museum conducted educational sessions for children. To help the students gain a better understanding of Western art, the programs introduced some of the Greek and Roman mythology used by many artists and gave background information about the paintings on display. Adults could also learn about the exhibit in detail through a separate educational program.
