| Research Abstract |
I believe that the 16^<th> century was a period of cultural transformation in a variety of ways. This research analyzes this belief from the perspective of "objects", fan paintings and the paintings by Kano school painters.
From the end of the 16^<th> century to the 17^<th> century, illustrations of "objects" appeared on large screens and on murals. This transformation shows that "objects" became independent of literature and games, increasing their artistic features for appreciation. Pictorialization of "objects" was also representative of people's interest in the "objects" around them. And, at the same time, people's interest in people around them generated genre paintings during this period.
Two developments in art history, pictorialization of "objects" and the establishment of genre paintings are, at first sight, antithetical characteristics of the 16^<th>-century art, but as I have pointed out here, they both took place.
In this sense, the 16^<th> century was a turning point in art history.
