New Worlds

The concept art incorporation to various industries draw the significance of particular elements in the description of ‘New World' working together. For instance: characters, environments, vehicles, and creatures. It is imperative that the specific works of art create and develop a convincing society and the world with which the audience can be engaged. This paper aims to analyse; ‘We are Making a New World’ by Paul Nash, Stroganoff Madonna by Duccio di Buoninsegna, and Battle of San Romano by Paolo Uccello in relation to the concept of New Worlds. The concept of ‘New Worlds' through art is furthered with the objective of contemplating the benefits and traditions based on the particular emphasis in paintings on how the future is affected.

The art ‘We are making a New World’ by Nash, Paul is a view with shattered trees over a desolate landscape and the earth a mass of shell holes Viney (1991).

High above in the sky, hangs the sun which beams light that shines through the dense, earthly coloured clouds. The war landscape is left with few ragged stumps and devoid of figures, hence letting viewers questioning the effect of warfare for the individuals on the frontline. The title of the painting invokes mockery towards the objectives of the war as the scene of desolation is shone upon by the rising sun Viney (1991). The landscape has been left unrecognizable, un-navigable, and totally barren. Amongst desolation and death lie mounds of earth that resemble gravestones. In this painting, Nash was aiming to bring more meaning from the use of figurative styles by deviating from the conventional symbolist principles Viney

(1991).
Duccio being one of the greatest personalities of Western art, and the founder of Sienese painting uses the Stroganoff Madonna in terms assumed from real life Southgate (2005). The painting illustrates a child who pushes the mother's veil away from her sorrowful expression, which is a reflection of apparent foreknowledge of the child's crucifixion. The paintings' three-dimensional is enhanced by the drapery that is beautifully modelled Southgate (2005). Also, the parapet and the physical presence connects the sacred and fictive world depicted in the painting and the viewers’ temporal one. There are marks of candle burns at the bottom of the original frame. This art exemplifies the traditional but progressive style, which is a significant landmark to the making of Renaissance image from Medieval Southgate (2005).
This painting is a landmark to the numerous paintings in Europe since it incorporates one of the earliest occurrences of the illusionistic device; depiction of Madonna as if standing behind a parapet. This artistic device is one that separates and connects the real space and time of the viewer and the timeless space engaged by the divine persons Southgate (2005).
Battle of San Romano by Paolo Uccello depicts the occurrence of the battle between Siena and Florence and marked the immense victory of Florence Roy, Ashok, and Dillian (2001). The painting has its composition totally crowded, the atmosphere is unreal, and the Knights resemble fake dummies. However, the main focus by Paolo Uccello was the application and perspectives of war that the elucidation of human feelings. The painting has its naturalistic composition, particular description of the horses and armours reminds the viewer of the aesthetics of Gothic fairy tales. Uccello manages to depict an unusual mastery of standpoints while his typical intricate narrative is articulately presented by the theatrical nature of the clash between Knights Roy, Ashok, and Dillian (2001).
The painting uses the main colours such as; greyish brown, black, pale to golden yellow, creamy white, greyish blue-green, light royal blue, reddish brown, and pinkish brown. The use of these colours by Uccello emphasizes the setting since they are particularly dull, and the scenes being illustrated do not require bright colours Roy, Ashok, and Dillian (2001). In relation to the concept of ‘New Worlds’, Uccello structures his painting in layers including; the strange pink platform and the ground layer that has all horses and the soldiers. These layers are rather flat and distance but succeed in depicting the sense of time and space. Fertility is illustrated in the painting by the layer of a solid mass of trees that are inclusive of roses and oranges Roy, Ashok, and Dillian (2001).
On the other hand, Duccio has infused life into Byzantine schemes of art and popular devotional poetry of religious kinds, which are treated with regards to the experiences of human beings; hence describe a significant alteration in the Western culture.

Duccio incorporated an exquisite collection of colour, in addition to numerous figures articulated to precision and gifted with deep-rooted human emotion so as to attain the effect of inspiration. Similar to the practices of Byzantine church and most recent practices, the development of the Stroganoff Madonna and Child envisioned to be prayed to when hung on the wall. This picture portrays the unique and new ability by Duccio to endow his figures with both emotional and physical

dimensions.
Paul Nash considered the world as ironical because of the First World War, and his art response replicated his perception of a raped landscape and one that is blackened. The title ‘We are Building a New World' is quite ironical. This is because, there is no human figure present and the remaining trees are branchless and churned up in mud illustrating the immense number of the dead. The compression of the outcomes of war as depicted by Paul Nash, portrays the basic tragic meanders of the artist's life, in which afterwards into the ‘New Worlds’ concept develops a language of disaffected pastoralism. In questioning the legitimacy and continuity of war, Paul Nash sought to illustrate the warfare effects and let the audience ponder over the experiences and nature of war itself.
Conclusion
Overall, the concept of New Worlds has been exemplified in numerous artworks through irony and stylistic expressions so as to best elucidate a forethought perspective. Certain artists articulately create material for posterity in shaping other people’s thought and courses of action through magnificent displays for instance; ‘We are making a New World’ by Paul Nash, Stroganoff Madonna by Duccio di Buoninsegna, and Battle of San Romano by Paolo Uccello. Paul Nash elucidates war perspectives and results through irony and devastation on land.
