History informs a work of art: who made it, when and where it was made, also how and why. These questions form the context for a work of art, or the reason for its’ creation. Also important is an artworks’ location, or where we encounter it. Looking a religious item, for example, is very different if viewing it in a museum as opposed to a sacred space.
History is not just about the past. It is about our experience of time. The past is history that has happened, the present is history that is happening, and the future is history that is about to happen. Taken in this light, history is not static, or just about “what was,” it is also about “what is, and what might be.” History is dynamic and alive! Very often the future circumstances of a work of art can add layers of meaning unintended by the artist.
All artworks, both utilitarian and aesthetic, provide a mirror to a culture. They tell us who we are, what we value, and what we believe. The history of art tells the story of the artist, the artwork, as well as the time and place in which the artist works. As such, learning the history of a work of art can add tremendous value to the appreciation of that work.
