Canvas Art

Canvas art may have started with the painting of baroque master Jan Vermeer in the eighteenth century. He painted a realistic depiction of scenes from day to day human life in a canvas. The subject was a milk maid.  The painting played with the light and shadow effects and gave life to ordinary subjects that featured the life of people, families, streets scenes, recreations, and prevailing traditions of the times they were in. Canvas art gained popularity because of its artistic simplicity and the striking way in which the image stands out.

While Jan Vermeer’s “The Milk Maid” painting started the popularity of canvas art, this form of art has been popular since the ancient times. Paolo Veronese, was known to have decorated the refractory of a Benedictine monastery in Venice with a canvas painting of the scene from the “Wedding at Cana”. Many more painters followed like Rembrandt and Frans Hals who were considered as masters who produced unrivalled beauty on canvas art. Today, canvas art comes in a variety of subjects and media. One can opt for oil, watercolor, charcoal, pencil and ink and even pastel on canvas. There are also a variety of styles and prices available depending on one’s unique taste and preference.
