The history of Urcean visual art is part of Levantine painting history. [[Levantia|Levantine art]] was influenced by earlier [[Adonerum|Adonerii]] civilization and can in part be taken as a descendant thereof. However, Levantine painting does have important unique characteristics. Such painting can be grouped into 4 main "styles" or periods, and may contain the first examples of trompe-l'œil, pseudo-perspective, and pure landscape.

Panel painting became more common during the Levanesque period, under the heavy influence of [[Istroyan]] icons. Towards the middle of the 13th century, Medieval art and Gothic painting became more realistic, with the beginnings of interest in the depiction of volume and perspective in Urcea. From then on, the treatment of composition by the best painters also became much more free and innovative. Despite later adaptation of theme and subject, realistic painting has remained a popular form of painted art since the medieval period. Urcean art is centered around technical and realistic execution, retaining form while the content and how it is depicted has become more diverse.

Initially serving imperial, private, civic, and religious patronage, Urcean painting later found audiences in the aristocracy and the middle class. From the Middle Ages through the Renaissance painters worked for the church and a wealthy aristocracy. Beginning with the Baroque era, artists received private commissions from a more educated and prosperous middle class. These changes occurred in the contest of the [[Catholic Church|Catholic]] victory following the [[Great Confessional War]] and rejuvenation of Catholic art and architecture as the aesthetic component of the {{wp|Counter Reformation}}. Accordingly, the demand for art across most of Urcean society was greatly enhanced during this period, leading to additional developments over time.
