Most traditional western art if not most classic art was made by artists that had a connection to God by faith and belief. Even those who may not have been so bound to Jesus and God in our western world were influenced by such. Much of this modern art or abomination and debasement of art today is made by athiests or are low thought leftists who either willfully walk with Satan or ignorantly allow Satan to use them. This is why their art is not art but loose counterfeits of art as Satan is a counterfeit peddler and false God. Look at the LGBT rainbow flag.... It's made of 6 colors and is a poor counterfeit to God's actual rainbow which itself has 7 colors. God's rainbow was his message to mankind that he will never destroy life by global flood again. Most modern art is built on as Luciferian worshipping counterfeit. Classic art was often based in God's gift to mankind and those who have talent to create artistic beauty in God's image and or respect of God's worldly creation.
