Class 11 in London

Class 11’s current Main Lesson investigates modernism an artistic period beginning with Romanticism and gave birth to such art movements as Impressionism, Dada, Expressionism, Bauhaus and Surrealism, and saw artistic achievements by Goya, Courbet, Manet, Degas, Klimt, Picasso, Kandinsky and Klee to name a few.

We visited Tate Britain, Tate Modern and the National Gallery. The National Gallery was a trip missed by the current Class 11 last year and they were pleased to discover the Renaissance and Baroque artists from their studies of the Class 10 History of Art Main Lesson. They were photographed in front of Botticelli’s Venus and Mars, and artwork they re-created in their egg tempera art lessons.

Venus (Aphrodite) and Mars (Ares) daughter was Harmonia who was the goddess of harmony and concord, presided over both marital harmony, soothing strife and discord, and harmonious action of soldiers in war.
