December 12, 2014 | | 3 Comments
There are many examples of artwork that were created to express the hardships of the Inductrial Revolution. A good example is the one below called The Third Class Carriage:
The Third Class Carriage by Honore Daumier
This is an oil painting on canvas by Honore Daumier created between 1862-1864. The image shows a crowded car of the working-class people. Many people could not afford better transportation so one can only imagine how uncomfortable and unsanitary it was on these cars.
Paintings of the landscape that was affected by the Industrial Revolution was a very popular subject. Here is an example below:
Scene from the Industrial Revolution
Here you can see that there are some major effects to the landscape because of the buildings and factories. It looks very overwhelming, especially with the excessive smoke coming from the chimney and the many workers surrounding it.

Thanks , I have just been searching for information approximately this topic for a while and yours is the greatest I have came upon till now. However, what in regards to the conclusion? Are you positive in regards to the supply?
You are a very capable individual!
Great post right here. One thing I would like to say is that most professional career fields consider the Bachelors Degree just as the entry level standard for an online degree. While Associate Certification are a great way to begin, completing your own Bachelors starts up many doorways to various occupations, there are numerous internet Bachelor Diploma Programs available through institutions like The University of Phoenix, Intercontinental University Online and Kaplan. Another issue is that many brick and mortar institutions make available Online versions of their diplomas but generally for a greatly higher cost than the firms that specialize in online diploma programs.
