Art in every era has been designed not only to show but also to tell a person a story – as if a connected plot and narrative on a canvas. And you ask, how is this possible in art? Any painting that’s painted carries not only an aesthetic meaning for your room, but also gives recognition about ancient heroes or biblical events, thus, painting developed in a person not only a sense of the beautiful and tangible, but also the historical and cultural development of man. The painting played the role of a kind of storyteller that conveyed to the viewer not only the images but also the emotions, thoughts and ideas of the artist, thus depicting for the viewer the specific subjects painted in the oil painting.
