Watercolor is the oldest painting medium known. It dates back to the early cave dwellers who discovered they could add lifelike qualities to drawings of animals and other figures on the walls of caves by mixing the natural colors found in the earth with water.
Fresco, one of the greatest of all art forms, is done with watercolor. It is created by mixing pigments and water and applying these to wet plaster. Of the thousands of people who stand under Michlangelo’s heroic ceiling in the Sistine Chapel, very few are aware that they are looking at perhaps the greatest watercolor painting in the world.
The invention of oil painting by the Flemish masters in the fifteenth century led to a decline in fresco painting, and for the next several centuries watercolor was used mainly as a medium for doing preliminary sketches or as a tool for study. It was not until the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries that English painters reinstated watercolor as a serious art form. The English have a notorious love for the outdoors and also a great fondness for small, intimate pictures. The subdued tones of watercolor had a remarkably strong appeal for them.
Which of the following can be inferred about what sixteenth and seventeenth-century artists thought of watercolor painting in comparison to oil painting?
选项
A、Watercolor was more costly but was better.
B、Oil painting was less permanent but more vivid.
C、Watercolor was not appropriate for finished works.
D、Oil painting tended to be difficult to use.
答案
D
解析
根据第3段第1句(15世纪佛兰德画家创作的油画导致了壁画的衰退,在以后的几个世纪中,水彩主要用于绘制初步的素描或作为学习工具)。
