Artistic style is a characteristic way of expressing and organizing visual elements that appears in various forms of creativity such as painting, graphics, sculpture, design, and architecture. It is based on certain principles of image construction, form, and structure, as well as the selection of formal characteristics that allow the creation of recognizable images and compositions.

This term encompasses many aspects: the shape of lines and contours, the relationship of elements in space, methods of constructing space and perspective, the nature and placement of details, as well as the general laws of composition structure. Artistic style reflects exactly how the visual organization of a work is created, whether it be a static painting, a dynamic illustration, or an architectural structure.

It can manifest in a variety of objects and environments — from portraits and landscapes to abstract forms and ornaments, covering both large compositional plans and fine decorative details. Artistic style unites the visual solutions characteristic of a certain era, culture, region, or specific author, while preserving stable principles of image construction and perception.

Within the creative process, artistic style serves as a guide for choosing shapes and their combinations, helps to structure visual content and organize the space of a work. It takes into account the environment’s features, the sizes and materials of objects, as well as the interaction of elements with the surrounding space and light.

Images included in collections devoted to artistic styles can demonstrate a wide range of forms and compositions, from strict and orderly to free and expressive. They reflect different approaches to image construction, vary in complexity and the content of visual details, enabling the study and analysis of the diversity of creative solutions and their expression in the material world.
