GradeBuddy is best used as a supplement to your own notes, not as a substitute.The Puritans (Portraits, non-religious art)- What did their furniture look like?Specifically we are referring to the great chairs the 3 examples are “turned armchair”, “joined great chair” and “Turned great chair”- What were the characteristics of their architecture?They were skilled and quick to experiment with craftsmanship.Embroidery (Samplers)Samplers were used as an educational means for girls; they were passed down from generation to generation. They helped teach scripture.Shakers (Crafts and Furniture)Simplistic, form as a function of designWho were John Freake, John Smibert, Thomas Smith, Justus Englehardt Kuhn, and Benjamine West?Benjamine West: two distinct painting styles, romantic (adopted when he traveled to Europe) and American. He was also a Quaker despite the Quakers views on art; one of his best pieces was the depiction of the battle of the Plains of Abraham outside the walls of Quebec city during the French and Indian war.John Smibert: European trained artist, “The Bermuda Group” (which he painted) influenced a generation of American painters, and he settled in Boston.John Freake: Famous for his portraits they were said to immortalize the person posing, they were dark and somber. Thomas Smith: Sailor by profession, we analyzed his self-portrait c. 1680 on oil canvas, included a still sea scape view out of a window and a skull resting on a sheet of paper with a poem on it. Justus Englehardt Kuhn: we focused on his painting of Henry Darnall the 3rd as a child, it captured the aristocratic pretentions of southern leaders, it conveys these pretensions through the elegant costume ofthe young figure and the elaborate formal gardens and palatial building behind him. Another testament to this was the silver collar around the slaves neck as an indication of her status .Slide List:The Iroquois1.
