Philosophy For this formal analysis I am continuing my focus on one of a four-panel series by Raphael Sanzio called Philosophy. This five-hundred-year-old fresco reside on a wall in a room known as the Stanza della Segnatura in the Apostolic Palace in Vatican City. The frescoes were commissioned to Raphael in 1509 by Pope Julius II and were completed in 1511. Raphael’s Philosophy panel is a depiction of the greatest scholars of the world, gathering together to share and exchange knowledge and…

Michelangelo Buonarroti, also known as "Father and Master of All the Arts", often comes to mind when the Renaissance is the topic of discussion. Michelangelo became wealthy and famous during his lifetime, from growing up with a family in the banking business, to becoming a famous figure in the Renaissance. He was a sculptor, architect, poet, and painter who always strived for perfection in all of his works. Michelangelo contributed to society by supporting the humanist movement during the…

Fall of Adam and Eve/Expulsion from the Garden. In this review, I’m discussing the ‘Creation of Adam’. In the Creation of Adam, the artist's image of God reaching out to Adam has become iconic of humanity and has been reproduced numerous times like Mona Lisa and ‘The Last Supper’ of Leonardo-da-Vinci. The left side of the painting shows a figure who is Adam, the first human, and he is lying on the with his upper body face outward, his right hand on the ground and left hand is lifted up with…

characteristics proved he was both an artist and scientists during the Renaissance period. His paintings are a mystery and leave people with questions. For example, the Mona Lisa had some scientists believe that the Mona Lisa painting is a self-profit of Leonardo da Vinci. They compare painting with self-profit of Leonardo da Vinci and the Mona Lisa 's painting match the self-profit (Zyga, 2010) My characteristic vision of scientists is they take a risk, they communicate and share their…

Science leaves people with many questions. There so many unexplained things that happen around the world. Many scientists and people have a different answer about things. Also, people question what true and not true because only have a theory on things. Also, many people through history knew about things device, airplanes, spaceships, and many other things. In this research paper, I am going research what scientists or people research about devices years before it was made. How I feel about…

about him in my found tech class and she talked about how he was an inventor. We didn’t go over what he invented but we learned about the da Vinci method and I was really interested in what he built & what he had painted. I knew that he painted the Mona Lisa, but I wanted to see what other painting he did. I used to like art and seeing all the different colors used to create a piece of artwork. Knowing what inventions people made was interesting because if it wasn’t for them getting up and…

a multi-million dollar painting in some Italians attic once a 50,000,000$ ( I wish I could exaggerate) Van Gough piece of artwork that was found in a attic the piece was actually abounded ( All art is abounded ) well It didn’t meat Van Gough’s expectations for himself so he gave it to his brother again I can also go really far with this painting but this is still Da…

As my great work of art that inspired many other parodies I choose American Gothic by Grant Wood. The painting is one of the most recognizable and even people who do not know of the original will probably recognize one of the many versions of this painting. I think this is a great work of art for the simple fact that so much is going on in such a simple picture. The expressions on the faces and the posture they have. What are they thinking, why are they not both staring at the artist painting…

mechanism that is designed to fly, based on how a bat flies. He had other inventions, but that was the most famous one. His other inventions were still good and made a huge impact, most of his work did. He had a lot of accomplishments. He painted the Mona Lisa which is one…

The Sistine Chapel has amazing art pieces that are filled with mosaics on the floor and are painted with frescoes by early Renaissance artists. Michelangelo painted the artwork and completed it later on in his life and when revealed people admired and praised his work that seemed unrealistic because it didn't look like a painting. The nine scenes that are present in the ceiling move across the central panels representing the story of mand which also refers to the beginning of Chritianity and…
