Art history quizzes that test your general knowledge about art eras

We have prepared a series of art history tests to test your knowledge in a fun way. How? By asking you questions about the various art periods and the artists, painters, works and paintings that characterized them.

For example, you'll find questions or quizzes on art history of the Renaissance, tests on Romanic art, questions on Greek or Roman art, and even quizzes on contemporary and modern art.

The questions we will ask cover many eras because human artistic expression is as long as the history of our species. In the tests you will find sometimes simple and sometimes difficult questions on the various artistic currents that are usually divided into:

• Ancient Art (e.g., Prehistoric, Greek, Roman)
• Medieval Art (e.g., Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance)
• Modern Art (e.g. Impressionism, Cubism, Futurism)
• Contemporary Art (e.g., Conceptual, Pop Art, Minimalism)

Let's review before we start with the art history tests:

Let's begin by defining the word in question: Art.
What is really meant? Let's start with the definition that the Courier's Dictionary.it

Activity of man based on the possession of a technique, on knowledge acquired both theoretically and through experience; in this sense, it also coincides with a craft that requires a specific skill

As we see this definition is very general and concerns art in the broadest sense which then can be declined in various areas, the one that interests us most in art history quizzes concernshuman artistic expression in the sense that we find explained on the Republica.it dictionary:

Creative activity directed at interpreting and representing, in various forms and by various means, the inner and outer world, suggesting sensations and feelings

Thereby the emotional and subjective sphere of both the maker of the work and the viewer of the work comes into play. Regarding this concept, there is a nice Man Ray quote:

My works are designed to entertain, bore, baffle, confuse and inspire reflection.

What are the artistic periods that art history quizzes are about?"

To define historical periods we start with the definition that Wikipedia gives of Art History:

Art history is the theory and history that studies the birth and progress of artistic expressions, through a philosophical and aesthetic methodological point of view as well as semiotic - cognitive and literary, with a focus on distinctive phenomena.

With regard to the birth of art, it is very difficult to draw a precise picture of it, however, we know that in the Paleolithic there were the first rock art forms: the famous graffiti depicting scenes of daily life of the moments of work or hunting.

More substantial are the artistic evidences of the earliest civilizations, especially of the Mediterranean, such as Greeks, Egyptians, Etruscans and Romans.

Then there are the artistic currents of the medieval period, often related to religious worship, such as Byzantine, Romanesque, Gothic, and Renaissance art.

The so-called modern period starts from the Baroque to movements such as Cubism, Futurism, and Dadaism.

Finally there is the era that we are still living in and that is contemporary art and we can trace movements such as: Conceptual Art, Pop Art, Minimalism, Arte Povera, etc.

Flag quizzes keep you entertained in a smart way!

The flag quizzes are among the most fun geography tests, because they recall our remembrances as children, when we enjoyed playing with the flags of the world, attracted by their colors and symbols. As we grow up, knowledge of world flags becomes part of everyone's cultural baggage, because the colors and symbols of flags carry very special meanings and stories. This flags quiz will test your knowledge of the flags of the world's continents, you will find tests on the flags of Europe, Asia, Africa, America, Oceania, all of which are constantly being updated. The questions we will ask you will sometimes bevery difficult because they will cover flags that are unfamiliar or very similar to others (African ones for example). Surrounding the universe of flags is a microworld of flag enthusiasts who take great pride in being able to recognize them all, even the strangest and most unfamiliar ones. And are you part of these experts?Do you think you can recognize even the most difficult flags? This quiz is just to test your general knowledge about flags in a way that isfun and clever at the same time.

How do flag quizzes work?

The structure of the game will be very familiar to you, because it is the classic structure of the quizzes you see on television, with multiple questions and answers. The number of questions on each test varies depending on the type and, in general, it works like this: we show you a picture of a country-specific flag and you will have to tell us which nation it belongs to. The questions in some cases can be very difficult because they might be about unfamiliar countries or similar flags to others. After seeing the flag you will have to choose from alternative answers, usually 4, where there will be in names of countries to associate with the given flag. Try to think well about the answers especially for the pictures that pose the most difficulty for you. There is no time limit  of time within which to answer and so we advise you especially for the more difficult flags to take your time. After you answer the question you can go on to the individual quiz result, where we will tell you if you answered correctly and then you can move on to the next question. At the end of the quiz we'll show you a summary of your results where we'll show you the right and wrong answers, so you can memorize them and retake the quiz all over again so you can try to complete 100% correct answers.

To summarize, here is how quizzes are usually structured:

• Various questions where we will show you a picture of a flag
• A mix of difficult and simple questions to make the game engaging
• 4 or 2 answers to choose from
.
• The right answer is only one
.
• Summary of results at the end of the quiz
• Ability to retake the quiz until you complete 100%

World Flags Quiz

In these quizzes you will find theflags of the world, in random order scattered across all continents. You will go from answering questions about Africa, Europe, Asia, America and Oceania. This can make the game a bit more complicated because there is no common thread among the questions, but this variable is what makes the game more varied and the challenge more fun.

Europe flags quiz

European flags should be more familiar to you, but we have tried to make the game more engaging by including flags of smaller, lesser-known countries as well. Be careful because just when you are overconfident you risk error, there are some flags that are similar to others that could mislead you.

Did you know that geography quizzes are the best way to learn while having fun?

That's right: trying to answer questions about geography, in a game in the form of a quiz, stimulates the mind and trains different parts of the brain. Taking geography tests creates a cognitive stimulus that allows us to stay focused and memorize notions better.

Also, the fun factor should not be underestimated; when we are faced with a challenge we forget about everything else and our mind focuses on overcoming the small challenges represented by the test questions.

Do you know the definition of geography?

Without dwelling much on overly complicated and long-winded definitions, we get a helping hand from the dictionary of the Corriere della Sera, which defines it as follows:

Science that studies the appearance of the Earth's surface and the physical, biological and human phenomena that occur there.

It may be useful to know the derivation of the name Geography, wiktionary helps us define the etymology:

from the Greek γεωγραφία ( composed of γῆ i.e. "land" and -γραϕία i.e. "description" ) and then from the Latin geographĭa

So we understand that geography is much more than just cartography, but describes all the phenomena that occur on earth, wikipedia is even more specific in telling us this:

Geography is much more than cartography, that is, the study of maps, or topography. Compared to them, in fact, geography adds the investigation of the dynamics and causes of the Earth's position in space, the phenomena occurring on it and its characteristics

And some of these phenomena are categorized by the Republic Dictionary:

• Astronomical Geography, a discipline that studies the Earth in the solar system
• Economic Geography, a discipline that studies the relationship that exists between economic phenomena and the environment in which they occur
• Physical Geography, a discipline that studies the appearance of the Earth's surface considered in relation to the physical phenomena that occur in the atmosphere, the hydrosphere and the lithosphere
• Linguistic Geography, geolinguistic
• Political Geography, a discipline that studies the distribution on the globe of political-territorial units
• Human Geography or anthropogenic, anthropogeography

As you see Geography encompasses a world in itself, in this regard there is a nice quote from John Dewey which reads:

The unity of all the sciences is found in geography. The significance of geography is that it presents the earth as the enduring seat of man's occupations

When we studied geography in addition to learning about boundaries, mountains, plains, rivers, lakes, etc. we have also learned how human settlements, cities, provinces, regions nations and continents are formed.

That is why our geography quizzes want to give you an overview of all branches of geography, so you will improve your general knowledge in a fun way by testing yourself.

Why is Geography so important?

The short answer to this simple question is that we think the study and knowledge of the subject of geography is useful for understanding the world around us.

Our land is a system in which all elements, including humans, relate to and influence each other.

We have learned since elementary school that geography studies the spatial aspect but also the human factor and how the latter intersects with the world around us. Knowing this system, while improving our general culture, helps us to live better on this planet.

Recalling notions learned as children, and perhaps forgotten, through quizzes, tests and fun games can help us refresh our memory and concepts that seemed long forgotten and at the same time really to spend a few minutes of entertainment and fun.

When was the last time you studied Geography?

Most likely, like most of us, your knowledge of geography comes from your elementary and middle school years.

Very often over the course of the years we completely forget the things we learned in school and what we are left with are the notions we learn from traveling, reading or watching news reports and documentaries.

There have been several studies done in the field of memory and on the difficulty we have in remembering concepts learned many years ago, our ability to remember is inversely proportional to the time elapsed.

If you are not fond of geography or travel it will be very difficult for you to answer the questions in our quizzes unless you have an iron memory and remember everything you learned in school.

Because geography studies go back so many years now it can be very useful, as well as fun, to try your hand at geography games that recall school memories.

Here are some frequently asked questions about Geography Quizzes

How do the quizzes work?

The tests are done completely online and are free. Our geography games have the classic quiz operation based on question and choice between multiple answers.

The game is very simple, all you have to do is try to answer the questions regarding physical and political geography that we present to you as we go along.

It is a classic test pattern, like what you may see in the famous TV quizzes, with the only difference being that you will now be the one who has to answer the questions.

How many questions are there in the tests?

The questions may vary from quiz to quiz, there is no fixed number of questions. The one on Italy's regional capitals, for example, has 20 questions, but there are some that have 7, others 10, and we are working on super quizzes with 100 questions.

Consider that we try to continually update our games and often extend the number of questions in the quizzes that are having the most success.

What kind of questions are you proposing?

The questions are about specific geography concepts on the topic of the quiz in question, obviously the questions between the flag quizzes and the capitals quizzes will be very different from each other.

Generally they will be questions regarding the physical and political geography of countries or continents, such as questions about rivers on lakes, mountains, borders, cities, capitals, regions, boundaries, you name it.

Are they difficult questions?

The questions are of different difficulty, sometimes they are very simple sometimes they are very complex. There are very trivial questions such as, "What is the capital of Italy?" and very complex questions such as, "With whom does Uzbekistan border?"

Obviouslythe level of difficulty is relative and depends on your background in geography, but we have tried to vary the type and difficulty of the questions to make the game fun for everyone.

How will I have to answer it?

The way it works is as a multiple-choice quiz, so you will have to choose from a number of plausible answers the one that seems most correct to you.

For example, we might ask you "What is the longest river in Europe" and give you 4 possible alternatives to choose from.

We ask you to reason about each of the questions without asking Google for help, even for the more complex questions it's good to do it yourself and test yourself, also because this way the concepts will stay better in your mind

How much time do I have to answer?

There is no time limit, you will have as much time as you want to think about the questions and their answers, so take your time and try to answer as best you can.

How will I know if the answer is right or wrong?

At the end of each question we will tell you right away whether your answer is right or wrong, but without giving you any further information about what the correct answer is, so that if you want to take the quiz again you will have to reason some more about what the right answer might be.

Is there a summary of the results?

Of course, at the end of all the quiz questions we will show you a little diagram where you will see the questions with their respective right or wrong answers. Once you have completed the quiz you will know very well where you got it wrong and you will be able to take the quiz again.

How many times can I take the Quiz?

There is no mandatory number, you will be free to choose to take the quiz as many times as you like, many of our users enjoy taking the quiz until they reach 100% correct answers.

Depends on how much you love history and its facets.

Depends on how much you have read throughout your life.

Before we find out about the history tests, let's do a general culture review: what is "History"?

The dictionary of Corriere della Sera defines it simply as follows:

The human affairs over time.

And it comes from the Greek word ἱστορία, the etymology explains it wikitionary:

...from Latin historia derived from Greek ἱστορία, meaning "investigation, research."

If we want to get into specifics we ask for help from Treccani which delves into and explains the difference between chronicle and history:

Orderly exposition of past human facts and events as they result from a critical inquiry aimed at ascertaining both the truth of them, and the connections mutual connections whereby it is permissible to recognize in them a unity of development (so defined, history is contrasted with chronicle, which is instead exposition, mostly non-critical, of facts in their simple chronological succession)

After reviewing the definition of history it may be interesting to do a few more little review.

Modern History, Ancient History, Contemporary History, etc. How are the Historical periods divided?

Usually the study of history focuses on precise periods to which definitions are given in order to better understand what we are talking about. The names given to the various eras can vary according to geographical locations, as can the dates of their beginning and end.

In any case wikipedia, tells us which is the periodization most commonly used:

The best-known periodization, which refers mainly to the history of Europe divides history into five periods: Prehistory, Ancient History, Medieval History, Modern History, and Contemporary History.

And that is the one we refer to in our history quizzes.

Here are the frequently asked questions we are asked on history quizzes

What is the test conduct?

The tests are simple games with question and multiple answers, like the ones you often see on TV quizzes, with the difference that here you are the one/the protagonist and you can take them wherever and whenever you want, being completely free and always available online

How many questions are there in each quiz?

There is no exact number, our quizzes are constantly being updated and we try to increase the number of questions on the most successful tests. You may find quizzes with 7 questions as well as quizzes that have 20, it depends on the topic and how much you are liking the quiz.

What types of questions are there?

They vary depending on the topic of the quiz, test questions on ancient history will be different from questions on modern history, just as questions on contemporary history will be different from those on medieval history.

Then there are the general quiz questions that will be a mix between the various eras and will make you jump around nicely between historical periods.

What is the level of difficulty?

As mentioned earlier, we try to include questions of all types, from the most difficult to some easier, we will try to create question sets that are not boring and that stimulate the mind by creating fun little challenges.

To summarize you will be able to find literary quizzes on:

• Literature quiz Latin
• Literary quiz English
• Literary quizzes on other eras and countries in updating

Before playing with literature quizzes let's talk about the concept of "Literature"

What do we mean when we talk about literature? What is its definition? To answer this question we get help from the dictionary of the Treccani that tells us:

Nowadays literature is commonly understood to mean the totality of works entrusted to writing, which proposeaesthetic ends, or, while not proposing them, nevertheless achieve them; and with a more abstract meaning, the intellectual activity aimed at the study or analysis of such works

Literature represents the history of man and define the characteristics of the peoples of different countries in a given historical period, in this we take an integration of the concept from Wikipedia which quotes a phrase from Francesco De Sanctis:

It is nevertheless true that the literature of a nation constitutes an "organic synthesis of the soul and thought of a people," that is, a mirror of the respective society at a defined time and which varies from work to work.

As Wikitionary teaches us, The Latin term Literature (from "Littera": Letter) denoted the very act of writing, but later in time it took the meaning of teaching language (Grammar from the Greek word "Gramma").

After doing asmall review on the definition of literature we can get a little more into the substance of the quizzes

How do literature quizzes work?

The structure is the same as the classic multiple-choice quizzes.We will ask you a series of questions about literature that you must answer by choosing from a range of plausible answers.
Each quiz consists of a series of questions ofvarying numbers that are updated continuously. The questions may be about literature in general or be very specific about dates, works, authors, and movements of a particular country.

You may find questions of varying difficulty, there will be questions that may seem very simple to you (but be careful the answers can be misleading) and others that will seem difficult. In any case take as long as you want to answer,there is no limit and you can reason as much as you want about all the possible answers.

When you have chosen the answer that seems correct all you have to do is select it and continue to the next page where we will tell you whether you have answered correctly (but without giving you any indication as to which answer is correct).

Complete all the quiz questions and we will show you a final summary where you can check which answers you got wrong and decide whether to try repeat the quiz to get the highest score.

Summarize, how the quiz is conducted:

• You will have 7 or more questions to answer
• You will find easy questions and very difficult questions
• You will be able to choose between two or four alternative answers
• There is only one right answer
• At the end of the quiz, you will see a summary of your results
• You cantake the quiz again as many times as you like
• You can share the quiz and get your friends involved

These science quizzes test your general knowledge on subjects such as science, biology, chemistry, physics, astronomy, etc.

The questions we offer in the tests sometimes might seem difficult, but that's when you'll learn new things without the effort of classical study.

We continually update our test games to let you have fun and learn new concepts all the time, among the various quizzes you can find:

• Quiz science in general

Before taking the science test, let's do a little review, what is natural science?

Now we'll get some help from the Treccani to understand what is really meant by Science and what is its definition:

A set of disciplines founded essentially on observation, experience, computation, or having nature and living things as their subject matter, and making use of formalized languages.

In these quizzes we will deal with the natural sciences, which are defined by Wikipedia as:

The natural sciences are one of the two branches of science(the other being the social sciences), which include the study of the physical, chemical and biological aspects of the Earth, the Universe and the various forms of life, including humans. Earth sciences and life sciences are counted among the natural sciences.

So now we have defined the word sciences we can move on and delve into how our quizzes work

How are science quiz games set up?

The game format is the classicquestion and multiple-answer test format. Basically we will present you with some science-themed questions that you will have to answer by choosing from a series of plausible answers.

After each question we will tell you whether you answered correctly and you can then continue to the end of the game where we will show you a summary of your results, so that you can assess where you went wrong and retake the quiz again to complete 100% correct answers.
