艺术家对于底层人民的关注实际上从古典主义时期就存在。如17世纪的西班牙宫廷画家委拉斯凯兹,虽然作为宫廷的首席画师又是皇室的艺术总监,并且从绘画技法上也是当时皇室喜好的巴洛克画法(繁多的细节处理,以及富丽堂皇的画面效果),但是他的眼睛却看到生活在宫廷的最卑微的侍女,创作了《宫娥》。戈雅在委拉斯凯兹的影响下创作出反映百姓在战乱下的困苦生活的作品——《1808年5月3日夜枪杀起义者》。 The artist’s concern with the underlying people actually existed from the classical period. Like the 17th-century Spanish court painter Velazquez, he was the chief art director of the royal court and the royal baroque art director, as well as the royal technique of baroque painting (numerous details and magnificent images Effect), but his eyes saw the humble maid who lived in court, creating “Gong E”. Goya, under the influence of Velazquez, created works reflecting the people’s hard life under war - “the night of May 3, 1808, the uprising”.
