Robert Delaunay, 1912â13, Le Premier Disque, 134 cm (52.7 in.), Private collection. Abstract art uses a visual language of shape, form, color and line to create a composition which may exist with a degree of independence from visual references in the world. Western art had been, from the Renaissance up to the middle of the 19th century, underpinned by the logic of perspective and an attempt to reproduce an illusion of visible reality.
The magma here also cools into rock, but at a much slower speed than the lava at the surface. This gives crystals more time to grow, making the larger-grained rock known as gabbro. So thatâs why basalt is at the top of the ocean plate and gabbro is at the bottom. To put it in the form of the worldâs worst poem:
Basalt vs Granite. Earth is made up of three kinds of rocks namely igneous rocks, sedimentary rocks, and metamorphic rocks. Basalt and granite are two types of igneous rocks. All rocks of igneous origin are made up of magma or molten earth that finds its way up to the surface of the earth from fissures and cracks underneath the surface of earth. The molten rocks that come out in the form of lava, upon cooling takes shape of igneous rocks.
