    Analyzing Art Work by Different Artists from Different Periods Art is very important to people especially when it represents spirituality. It adds a strong connection between the artist and the viewers on something they both agree on. Art in the early Renaissance was mostly about spirituality, but as time passes by, artists paid less attention to spirituality, and they started adding other themes to art. I intend to show that The Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci, represents the scene of The Last Supper of Jesus with his disciples. Da Vinci has depicted the horror in the 12 disciples’ faces when Jesus announced that one of them would betray him.…

    The medium used (oil) allowed the painter to make very realistic shades and colors. The figures and landscape in the painting also looked very fluid and real due to the use of the oil paint. The painting contains the Virgin Mary, the baby Jesus and his second cousin St. John the Baptist. The painting foreshadows the death of Christ on the cross. This point is displayed in the action of the painting where St. John is handing Jesus a small cross and Mary is looking upon it knowing what is to…

    The museum I visited was the Polk Museum of Art in Lakeland, Florida. There were three main exhibitions open, but the one I spent the most time in was the Bill Rutherfoord: Allegory of No Region. The exhibition was a culmination of eleven large scale pieces of art by Bill Rutherfoord that were done over an eight-year period. The main series, Allegory of No Region, contains paintings that take the viewer through a series of colorful allegories full of symbolism, form, and narrative. Rutherfoord, an American artist from Virginia, references contemporary and historical issues spanning from the 18th century to present times by taking the African folk character Brer Rabbit on an epic adventure through time.…

    Bernini's sculpture is a great example of Baroque style because the sculpture draws the audience in by the bright lights aiming at the angel and St. Teresa. Also, the way the sculpture was made can give a person the sense of it being real. At the same time, Ingres's painting is an oil painting that uses "firm contours and polished brushstrokes" to represent a three-dimensional figure on a flat surface. Ingres' painting is a great example of Neoclassical style because of the way Ingres uses the brush to create the painting and it took place in Roman…

    The religious scenes became more realistic and proportioned. The anatomy of the people within the paintings and sculptures of Italian Renaissance work appear scientifically correct and the scenes of the paintings have depth. Italian Renaissance artists used linear or one-point perspective to render proportioned work. An example is Holy Trinity and Tribute Money by Masaccio. In Masaccio’s work, there are vanishing points, orthogonals, a horizon lines, and foreshortening and atmosphere perspective used to give the viewer a realistic idea of the…

    Analysis with the Principles of Art and Design Intertwining with the previous chapter and analysis, Epic of American Civilization: Anglo-America (panel 15) by Jose Clemente Orozco, the visual elements (line, shape, mass, light, value, color, texture, space, and possibly time and motion) must be organized in such a way as to satisfy the artists expressive intent. And this intent is where this current chapter comes into play (chapter 5). For the artist these new elements offer guidelines for making the most effective choices. These new principles of design most often identified are unity and variety, balance, emphasis and subordination, proportion and scale, and rhythm. The purpose of this analysis is to identify these values and give adequate…

    Over the period of time the art movement has changed drastically. Usually when the art changes it relate to the era that it was in. During the 19th and 20th century the “style of art history” increased in the passing decades’ art historians tried to avoid stylistic classification when it could be avoided.

    The Renaissance was an age of learning and revival of classic Roman and Greek art and culture.

    Christ is painted in the foreground surround by apostles and citizens painted in the technique called fresco. Another comparison of the two pieces are the way the viewer sees the figures. Giotto places his main subjects in the foreground, which brings attention forward compared to the Arrival in Bethlehem, where all the figures are scaled down so the landscape is the main focus. Another example of different exemplification of Christ Entering Jerusalem is Duccio’s tempera on panel. Duccio painted Christ and the apostles to the left and scaled the citizens up and around the bend of the road to the right of the painting.…
