Art Era Timeline 4 ~ Modern Art

Here is the 4th Art Era Timeline!

I hope you downloaded the previous Art Era Timelines. I f not, please pop over to Art Era Timelines and download the previous 3 timelines. (Due to the size of the files I have broken the timeline into 4 sections.)

I have provided a basic definition of each art movement and included the dates and names of the founders and the most eminent artists of that movement. Each artist has a thumbnail of their work. I have placed each art movement on a new page for clarity and to aid the study of different eras.

Art Era Timeline #1 ~ Pre-Renaissance to 18th Century

I created Art Movements Timelines

Due to the size of the files I have broken the timeline into 3 sections:

* Pre-Renaissance – 18th Century
* 19th Century to Late 19th Century
* 20th Century till Modern Art

This week’s Timeline is Pre-Renaissance – 18th Century
I have provided a basic definition of each art movement and included the dates and names of the founders and most of the eminent artists. There are thumbnails of their works. I dedicated a page to each major art movement so that they can be studied individually. The timeline can be used in several ways:

* Print as a Art Book of Centuries – or added to a student’s own Book of Century
* Cut and paste the pages end-to-end as a art timeline
* Cut out and add the artists and their art work thumbnails to a dedicated art timeline or an exsisting timeline
* Laminate and cut the artists as cards and let children match the artists to the eras
