Abstract

Mythology tells about the character traits and relationships in human society. Topics are about tenderness, betrayal, motherhood, or the courage of love. In the visual arts, the mythological genre was formed in the Middle Ages; He painted legends and traditions. Images of ancient heroes and gods appeared in the pre-Christian period and occupied an important place in the works of Renaissance artists. In the 18th century, mythological scenes became part of the national ideology and began to have social and political overtones. Depicting generals and rulers as ancient gods, artists conveyed state events through "Heavenly" battle or genre scenes. At the center of the mythological scene are gods, heroes of fairy tales and legends, fairy creatures and fictional historical characters. The artist pays great attention to image perspective and volume to give the viewer a realistic impression of what is going on. A large number of vivid images, attention to detail, rich and dynamic subject matter, an abundance of nudity distinguish this type of painting. Using the play of light and shadow, bright tones and deep contrast, painters brought their subjects to the fore, created image depth and increased the effect of the canvas on the audience. In this article, based on the stories of mythological characters, the connections between mythology and the art of painting are explained, the use of mythological elements in the art of painting and its transformation into the art of painting are exemplified.
