Since the beginning of time, we have made art. From paintings on the walls of caves, to sweeping masterpieces on cathedral ceilings, art has defined who we are, and what we are to become.
Through the years, art has seen every possible extreme. From the staid works of Raphael, to the surrealism of Salvador Dali, every emotion that can possibly be expressed has been.
Presented here are the works of men and women who not only excelled in their profession, but changed the way we think about art.
