Toltomeja Posted March 30, 2016 Posted March 30, 2016 Built for Brickstory competition - category: history of art. MORE PICS: http://www.flickr.com/gp/toltomeja/9A1GrZ The construction depicts the history of art and architecture from Lascaux cave paintings to contemporary art. There are ten stages that I chose as the milestones of history of art - each one highlighting one piece of art, as well as a minifig and some surroundings matching the historical period.: 1. Prehistoric times - Lascaux wall paintings 2. Ancient Egypt - image of Osiris 3. Ancient Greece - columns of Ionic, Doric and Corynthian order 4. Ancient Rome - triumphal arch of Orange 5. Gothic - church of St Mary, Krakow 6. Renaissance - merchant's house 7. Baroque - an altarpiece 8. Classicism - Pantheon in Paris 9. Romanticism - Liberty Leadin the People, painting by E. Delacroix 10. Contemporary art - Piet Mondrian's painting, Chrysler Building (art deco) and Bauhaus furniture Enjoy! Quote

AardWolf Posted April 2, 2016 Posted April 2, 2016 Saw this on Flickr and I love it! All of the detail and history you managed to pack into microscale-style building is really impressive. Quote
Exetrius Posted April 4, 2016 Posted April 4, 2016 Maybe it's just me, but I see eleven works of art? This whole sculpture is a piece of art in it's own right! Incredible presentation of the various stages, beautiful! Quote
