Stylistic qualities of a awork refer to the way sensory and formal elements of art are used in similar ways within a given style of art. For example, all the Impressionist painters began by using color in certain ways. After a period of time, several of them moved away from that style and began to imprint their work with more distinctive use of these elements. Certain styles )or schools) of painting are quite easy to recognize. It may be very easy to determine some individual artists by their style. However, many artists adopted different styles throughout their careers, and their less-well known works may be difficult to recognize. Commonly, Art History or Art Appreciation courses will require identification of certain artistic styles or periods. Comparison of two works from a similar style are often compared, critiquing for differences and similarities. Contrasting two works of a similar theme but from different periods or movements is also frequently done to test the discernment of the viewer.
