Dominant tendency in American painting after World War I towards cubism and abstraction was called "Precisionism". The artists

His paintings are intense, slow-moving, building up a rhythm to a supremely climactic style. Giotto achieved a convincing representation of space and background. Not only was he an amazing artist but even more amazing that his talent was inherent, not taught in any school but enhanced by his mentor Cimabue.
