    That’s actually really interesting to know. I never really think about the political landscape and how it’s impacted artwork throughout history.

      This is actually a often very inportant point. Art always evolved with society and politics are a big part of that. Art history is amazing!

      Yeap, I’m not usually very interested in a lot of art for the sake of art. But I do love history, and art throughout history has always been one of the better ways modern people can familiarize ourselves with the cultures of the past.
