  2. Thermal radiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_radiation

    For example, although far-field thermal radiation at distances from surfaces of more than one wavelength is generally not coherent to any extent, near-field thermal radiation (i.e., radiation at distances of a fraction of various radiation wavelengths) may exhibit a degree of both temporal and spatial coherence.

  3. Light in painting - Wikipedia

    Port with the disembarkation of Cleopatra in Tarsus (1642), by Claude Lorrain, Musée du Louvre, Paris. Light in painting fulfills several objectives like, both plastic and aesthetic: on the one hand, it is a fundamental factor in the technical representation of the work, since its presence determines the vision of the projected image, as it affects certain values such as color, texture and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Example_incandescence...

    English: Hot colors - the visible color of objects heated to incandescence. The spectrum of the thermal radiation depends on the temperature, so by observing the color of an incandescent object it is possible to determine its approximate temperature quickly and easily without high precision equipment.

  5. Elements of art - Wikipedia

    It provides the viewer of the work with an image of what the artist had done to create the mark, reliving what the artist had done at the time. [1] Materiality is the choice of materials used and how it impacts the work of art and how the viewer perceives it. [1]

  6. Heat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat

    A single cycle starts with the working body colder than the cold reservoir, and then energy is taken in as heat by the working body from the cold reservoir. Then the work reservoir does work on the working body, adding more to its internal energy, making it hotter than the hot reservoir.

    Warhol was one of the most prolific portrait painters of the 20th century. Warhol's painting Orange Shot Marilyn of Marilyn Monroe is an iconic early example of his work from the 1960s, and Orange Prince (1984) of the pop singer Prince is later example, both exhibiting Warhol's unique graphic style of portraiture.

  8. Artist's statement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artist's_statement

    An artist's statement (or artist statement) is an artist's written description of their work. The brief text is for, and in support of, their own work to give the viewer understanding. As such it aims to inform, connect with an art context, and present the basis for the work; it is, therefore, didactic, descriptive, or reflective in nature.

  9. Luminous flame - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luminous_flame

    The flame does not provide much light itself, and so a more heat-efficient non-luminous flame is preferred. Unlike simple soot, a mantle uses rare-earth elements to provide a bright white glow; the colour of the glow comes from the spectral lines of these elements, not from simple black-body radiation.
