The Spanish painter Diego Velázquez (1599- 1660) makes a series of paintings which he uses as a figure of dwarves and clowns, whose mission is to entertain the king in order to explain human nature. In these portraits he places the model's head close to the top edge of the canvas. They depict their figures as if they were in a narrow, limited world, crouched in two bending situations. Velázquez had been in the king's servants' classrooms before he became a palace painter. In other words, he was familiar with the figures in which he shared his experiences before starting the paints.

French painter Paul Gauguin (1848-1903) left France and first went to Tahiti in 1891. He was also determined not to return from Tahiti for the second time in 1895. This time he settled in a small town called Punaauia near Papeete. The painter started to live happily and hopefully in his life in this tropical country where he returned.

Édouard Manet (1832-1883) was the first 19th-century painter to allow color and light to guide him. He was the inspiration for "Impressionists" with his palette and style. When he was indifferent to his open-air painting, he was interested in color observations directly. Manet was forefoot to the "Impressionists" by seeing what he saw directly, drawing what was against him and discovering the color sought after in nature. Manet had learned to work outdoors from the Impressionists.
