After the private museums were opened to the public access thanks to the influence of the Renaissance, standardization in classification of the artworks was introduced for the first time. The artworks were labeled according to their chronological, stylistic, periodical and etc. order. The heritage that defines the national identity is displayed in the museums. The art owes its raison d'etre and its power to the social construction. The museums have been moved into the metropolises from the countryside. A huge change happened in the concept of exhibition as a result of Impressionism. It saved the audience from the rules and the sanctified atmosphere and let them to be exposed to an abuse that they had never experienced before.
