Artworks classification

Original Artwork

Original Artwork refers to any work that is considered authentic and not a copy or imitation of the original works of an artist. Original artwork can be any type of painting, sculpture, performance, or other media. There are many types of original media. Mixed media includes oil, acrylic, and watercolor paintings. For workshop paintings that bear evidence of master craftsmanship, this attribution must be further qualified. While they may be less valuable for different reasons, reproductions and copies have had a tremendous impact on our experience. They reach a greater audience than originals and act as a tonic against commodification. Original Artwork could also refer to the first work, which is always preceding all others. It could also refer to a prototype or a model from which other works can be made. Each work bears great similarities to the original.

Cette pièce représente un pilote de chasse britannique aux commandes de son avion pendant la Première Guerre mondiale.

Dans ce dessin, Nevinson capture le dynamisme et l'excitation du combat aérien. Le pilote est représenté avec une expression déterminée sur son visage, montrant sa concentration et son courage face aux défis du ciel. L'avion est dessiné en mouvement, donnant une impression de vitesse et d'agilité dans les airs.

L'utilisation habile des lignes et des détails dans le dessin permet de créer une atmosphère réaliste. On peut ressentir l'adrénaline et l'audace du pilote alors qu'il navigue dans le ciel, prêt à affronter l'ennemi.

"Dans les airs" témoigne de l'intérêt de Nevinson pour les développements technologiques de son époque, notamment l'aviation, qui jouait un rôle de plus en plus important dans la guerre moderne.

About this artwork: Classification, Techniques & Styles

Figurative

Figurative and colorful painting having taken the liberty of including all forms of art without border of cultural genre and geographic origin, without hierarchy of values between high and subculture.

Technic Drawing

Drawing is a technique of visual representation on a flat support. The term "drawing" designates both the action of drawing, the resulting graphic work, and the shape of any object. It is also a representation on a surface of the shape (and possibly the light and shadow values) of an object or figure, rather than their color. There are a large number of drawing techniques: “Linear drawing” represents objects by their outlines, edges and some characteristic lines; beyond this limit, the drawing develops by representing the volume by shadows, often by means of hatching, incorporates colors, and joins, without clear transition, the painting.

Christopher Nevinson

France

Christopher Richard Wynne Nevinson was a British artist born August 13, 1889 in London and died October 7, 1946 in Paris. He is best known for his war paintings and depictions of the Futurist movement. [...]

Nevinson was born into a family of artists and studied at the Slade School of Fine Art in London, where he was influenced by artists such as Paul Gauguin and Vincent van Gogh. During the First World War, he enlisted as an ambulance driver and served on the French front, which had a profound effect on his art. His wartime experiences inspired some of his most famous works, including 'The Machine Gun' and 'The Silk Road', which depict the brutality and horror of war.

After the war, Nevinson turned to the Futurist movement and incorporated elements of speed and dynamism into his paintings. His futuristic works, such as 'Save Progress', were critically acclaimed and helped popularize this art movement in the UK.

Over the years, Nevinson experimented with different artistic styles, moving from Futurism to Expressionism and Cubism. His works have been exhibited in numerous art galleries and he has become an important figure in the British art scene.

However, despite his initial success, Nevinson went through periods of artistic and financial decline. He continued to paint throughout his life, but he was somewhat forgotten by the general public. It was only after his death that his work was rediscovered and reassessed by art historians.

Today, Christopher Nevinson's paintings are housed in museums around the world, and his legacy as a major artist of the early 20th century lives on. His commitment to the realistic depiction of the horrors of war and his exploration of the Futurist movement have earned him an important place in the history of modern art.
