Academic Landscape Paintings

ACADEMIC STYLE

During the Renaissance, the first European fine art academies were established in Italy and would guide the style and standards of visual culture in the following centuries. Academic art became dominant across the continent in the 17th century, with artists coming together to offer instruction in this style of painting and sculpture

The academic art period represented a significant change from the previous era when painters, sculptors and other artists were part of guilds and seen more as artisans than purveyors of culture. While patronage from the elite and the church remained pivotal, young artists were able to support themselves for the first time through academic exhibitions and an independent marketplace. The leading academies included the French Académie Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture founded in Paris in 1648 (which became the Académie des Beaux-Arts after the French Revolution) and the London Royal Academy of Arts formed in 1768 under the inaugural leadership of painter Joshua Reynolds

Academy students sketched drawings based on prints, sculptures and, finally, live models. Movements including neoclassicism and romanticism were particularly popular in these art schools and institutions where the influence of Raphael and Nicolas Poussin was prominent. Beaux Arts architecture and furniture design drew on these movements, too, and, as they also originated at the Académie des Beaux-Arts, the disciplines share common ground with academic painting and sculpture.

Although academic art was a major shift for artistic status when it began, by the middle of the 19th century it was viewed as stodgy and resistant to new ideas, with the subject matter of artists such as William-Adolphe Bouguereau and Jean-Léon Gérôme generally limited to allegorical or mythological themes. Impressionism, realism and the other movements that engaged with contemporary issues that followed were direct reactions to the academic tradition, although it continued to inform the avant-garde as artists like Gustav Klimt and Pablo Picasso started their practices as academic realists.

This captivating painting takes you on a journey through time, allowing you to witness the grace, power, and elegance of Arab horsemen in their natural element. Adolf Schreyer, a celebrated artist of the 19th century, gained immense popularity and admiration for his exceptional ability to depict equestrian scenes with unparalleled skill and detail. Born in Frankfurt, Germany in 1828, Schreyer developed a profound fascination for the Orientalist movement, which celebrated the exoticism and allure of the Middle East. “Arab Horsemen” exemplifies Schreyer’s signature style, highlighting his mastery of capturing the energy and spirit of his subjects. The painting portrays a group of Arab horsemen galloping across a vast desert landscape, their silhouettes evoking a sense of freedom and adventure. Schreyer’s meticulous attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, as he adeptly captures the shimmering sunlight bouncing off the horses’ coats and the billowing dust beneath their hooves. What sets Schreyer apart is his ability to transcend mere representation and infuse his artworks with a profound cultural significance. His depictions of Arab horsemen are not only visually stunning but also serve as a bridge between cultures, inviting viewers to explore and appreciate the richness of Arabian heritage. The artist’s fascination with the Middle East stems from his experiences traveling through North Africa, Turkey, and Syria, immersing himself in the sights, sounds, and traditions of these enchanting lands. “Arab Horsemen” holds a special place in the hearts of art enthusiasts in both America and France. Schreyer’s works found great admiration and recognition in these countries during his lifetime and continue to captivate audiences to this day. In America, his paintings were sought after by collectors who were drawn to the romanticism and exoticism of the Orient. In France, Schreyer’s association with the Barbizon School, a group of artists who favored realistic depictions of rural life, further solidified his reputation as a respected painter. Owning a piece by Adolf Schreyer, especially “Arab Horsemen,” is not merely acquiring a beautiful artwork but also an opportunity to possess a tangible link to a pivotal period in art history. Schreyer’s ability to seamlessly blend artistic brilliance with cross-cultural appreciation makes this painting an invaluable addition to any collection.
