Art
During medieval times, artisans decorated castles and churches with articles made from ivory, gold, and enamel. Artists of the Renaissance produced fine furniture, metalwork, and glass. People of the 1700’s created beautiful porcelain pieces and carved woodwork.
Today, the decorative arts continue to be an important division of art. Fine art and decorative art reflect important artistic trends in their form, colour, and material.
