From stick figures in sand to the first animals painted and carved in stone, individuals around the world have responded to the world using images. The ultimate goal of art, especially in the past, was to convey meaning and express important ideas, illuminating what was significant to each civilization, through captivating images. To know the subject of any painting, it is necessary to consider the artist's goals, which are regularly linked to social conditions, national or global issues, and audience demands. To avoid the inconveniences of judging all art based on our personal experiences and views, we must know the background surrounding the artist at the time of the creation of the work, i.e. the social and historical conditions of the time and logical views which influenced the way the artist saw the world. Art is as broad as the life from which it arises, and each artist represents different characteristics of the world they know. For a fraction of a second it can be said that artists paint to discover reality and generate direction. Inventors of art innovate on the wonders and exquisiteness of nature and the balance and grace of man. They give these concepts order to help us understand life more deeply. In understanding the history and style of any artistic period, we must understand the balance between the social and political development of that particular era.

The issue is still controversial, it has not been established whether he produced forgeries. (De Leeuw) This art displays sharp, vivid images with a high degree of color accuracy.
