Titian

Jesus died on the cross, and surprisingly, people thought to themselves Jesus' crucifixion would make the church a more enjoyable service to get through. Therefore, the universe brought forth Lamentation by Giotto, Entombment by Raphael, Entombment by Titian, Descent from the Cross by Pontormo, and many more artistic depictions of Jesus dying. In contemporary western society, the idea of finding someone suffering beautifully is alarming. However, the idea of Jesus dying excludes the other half…

Poussin described his initial work on his new painting Hannibal Crossing the Alps as ‘thinking’. He told Cassiano del Pozzo he continued to give his commission ‘daily thought’: For the drawings for the honourable gentleman/your honourable self I am thinking [about them] every day, and I should quickly finish them/some.’ The words ‘I am thinking’ (j’y pense) is Poussin’s way of highlighting what he saw as his own exceptional intellectual efforts. And he assures Cassiano that tangible proof…

analyze three vivid paintings all done by Lorenzo Lotto. The three painting I have chosen are “The Stoning of Saint Stephen”, “The Entombment”, and “Saint Dominic Reviving Napoleone Orsini”. I choose these paintings from the art exhibit Bellini, Titian, and Lotto: North Italian Paintings from the Accademia Carrara, Bergamo which was once located in The Metropolitan Museum of Art. First, I will review the painting “The Stoning of Saint Stephen” by Lorenzo Lotto. This painting was…

Europe emerged from the Dark Ages in about 1350 C.E., with a rebirth of artistic styles in the Greek and Roman tradition that lasted for centuries. The Renaissance saw depiction of human emotion, Christian imagery, and realism in portraying the human body. See Titian’s Venus of Urbino. A completely naked Venetian courtesan, Angela del Moro, reclines among feathery pillows and vibrant flowers in an elegant Italian palace. She gazes directly at the viewer with a look that makes this work, "the…

“Sapokanikan” is the first single released from Joanna Newsom’s 2015 album Divers. Shorter than most of the songs on her last album Have One On Me, the song resembles a union of the styles she used on Have One On Me and her debut album The Milk-Eyed Mender. “Sapokanikan”, like much of Joanna’s music, relies heavily on obscure references to tell a greater tale. Newsom’s overall message is about death and being forgotten and her references, language, and imagery tie together to paint a picture of…

together. The NFL has probably the highest rate of suicide that goes along with the game of football. He talks about Former Chargers DB Paul Oliver; who killed himself in September, eight months later another four players committed suicide, including Titian receiver O.J.

The Renaissance was the start of the new developments and the branching away from religious paintings. "Rebirth" was the nickname and the French translational for Renaissance. The Renaissance was mainly about literature and learning as said in this quote: “By the term Renaissance (" New Birth"), used in its narrower sense, is meant that new enthusiasm for classical literature, learning, and art which sprang up in Italy towards the close of the Middle Ages…” (“The Renaissance”). This time period…

The concept of beauty has been a baffling issue and a bone of contention among thinkers and intellectuals. Such confusion can plausibly be understood through the changeable standards considered in every culture and the many attempts to approach it. Throughout history, it has been glorified and highlighted in many ways. From a philosophical perspective, Kant, in Observation on the Feeling of Beautiful and Sublime , tackles beauty, through the view that women are identified by their beauty, while…

Gender Inequalities in Greek mythology and Greek society Just like all the other paces on the planet, men ruled the earth with an iron fist. I am ashamed to say that we as men treated women like second class citizens all through out history; the ancient Greeks were no different, this is just one example amongst many crawl deeds of men. Greek society was dominated by the wealthy, if you were a wealthy woman you had it bad but if you were a female peasant your life was a living nightmare. Greek…
