Architectural reflections in western painting
Abstract
The interaction between Painting and Architecture is a multifaceted concept that dates back centuries and maintains its importance. Paintings containing representations of architectural elements in Western Painting from the Renaissance to the present day, and the ways in which their artists handled these architectural forms, are discussed chronologically in this article. The depictions of architectural forms in paintings, which have been observed to have transformed into a language of symbolism with various meanings from rationality to spirituality, from ancient times to today’s art, have been examined with approaches ranging from formalism to universal archetypes. Examples from the works of painters such as Raphaello Sanzio, Il Canaletto, Hubert Robert, Claude Monet, Giorgio de Chirico, Ludwig Meidner, Iain Macnab, David Hockney were discussed. Literature scanning and work review methods were used in the article.
