Chapter 5: Principles of Design in Art

Artists: Matisse

This artist, skilled in many media, may have been a "wild beast" (fauve) of a painter, but his domestic and political life was relatively stable and tame. An excellent on-line biography with examples of his work can be found at:

Artists: Francisco de Goya

Francisco de Goya was a man of modest beginnings, hailing from an uncharacteristically bleak part of Spain. He rose to become court painter to King Charles IV. Many of his paintings reveal an inclination toward the "dark side" of human nature. To find out more about him, check out the websites below:
