image from the Early Renaissance, High Renaissance, Baroque
period
Use either the textbook and/or online sources to locate
three pieces of religious art. All three pieces should be dealing with the same
subject รข?” for example, the crucifixion, mother and child, or the Last
Supper.
Capture an image from the Early Renaissance period, one from
the High Renaissance period, and one from the Baroque period. Place these
images in a Word document. Then do the following:
Identify each image by name, artist, location, and medium.
Offer a citation for each image.
After examining the art very carefully, point out with
specific information how the art remained the same and how it changed
appreciably during the time span in question. Be sure to note such things as
general appearance of the figures, their body types, their clothing, colors,
etc.
Offer logical explanations for why there were changes in the
way religious art was portrayed over this span of time. Also comment on why
religious art continued to have such an important place in the artistic world.
