Although the art collections of monarchs and aristocrats were often available for public viewing for part of the time, at least by the middle and upper classes, the art museum is considered a fairly modern invention, the first publicly owned and easily accessible one being the Louvre in Paris, which was established in 1793, soon after the French Revolution when the royal collections became state property.
Art is an application of human creativity that has some form of appreciative value, usually on the basis of aesthetic value or emotional impact. The modern use of the word "art", which rose to prominence after 1750, is commonly understood to be skill used to produce an aesthetic result. Artistic works have existed for almost as long as humankind, from early pre-historic art to contemporary art. |
