It is concerned with particular steps and courageous innovations that painters have used since the end of the Middle Ages in Europe to overcome established traditions in art, thus contributing to the advancement of painting. The art historican takes us on a journey through the centuries: leading from the the medieval paintings of sanits, who, thanks to Giotto, became more lifelike, through the perfecting of illusionisti-realistic painting during the Renaissance, and then to the overthrow of the latter at the close of the 19th century by Impressionism. Cubism and abstract painting, all of which place a greater emphasis on color, form, and emotion."
