The first pictures of animals appeared on the walls of caves thousands years ago. From time immemorial, people admired the power and grace of animals, surrounding themselves with their images. The trend has continued till today.
Famous artists, who created animal oil paintings include I Yuanji (XIth century, China), Albrecht Durer (XVIth century, Roman Empire), Rubens (XVIIth century, the Netherlands), Rembrandt (XIXth century, Italy). Also, portraits of Leonardo da Vinci often featured animals.
Today, animalism is more often represented in the following styles:
- realism;
- abstractionism;
- fantasy;
- symbolism;
- academicism.
