WARM-UP How did the Renaissance develop? How does the image reflect the development of the Renaissance? Additional Questions to ask: How are the different parts of the root of the “Renaissance plant” labeled? Why? Plants need soil, sunlight and water to grow. What three things seem to be contributing to the growth of the Renaissance? What is the soil labeled as? Why?

Topic: Renaissance Art Essential Question: How did art change during the renaissance?

Classical -People look better than real life. -Bodies appear active and lifelike, like they could “come alive.” -Faces are calm and do not show emotion.

Medieval -Images are very flat, 2D without much depth. -Usually religious (Mary and Jesus) -Important figures are larger than others -Bright colors -Solid color backgrounds

Renaissance -Uses perspective -Objects in “back” smaller than those in “front” -Lifelike, 3D figures -Lines meet in a single point -Full, detailed backgrounds. -Soft, shadowy colors -Often non-religious

Classical Art Medieval Renaissance *People looked more perfect than in real life *Paintings didn't have much background detail or perspective *Bodies looked active, motion was believable *Faces calm without emotion *Important figures are larger than others *Little sense of life or movement *Single-color backgrounds *2-Dimensional, flat paintings with bright colors *Most art was religious (Jesus, Mary, etc.) *Not all scenes are religious *Full backgrounds showing perspective *Soft, shadowy colors *Bodies looked active and in motion *Lifelike and 3-dimensional figures

Homework Finish Questions and Summary

Do Now Get out your planner, write your homework down. Get out your Renaissance Art Notes. Review your questions and summary with your table. Mr. Mang will stamp as you review.

History of Perspective Some artists conducted careful observations of nature and even anatomical dissections to try to better understand the world around them. But it wasn’t until the early 15th Century that a Florentine architect and engineer named Filippo Brunelleschi developed a mathematical theory of perspective through a series of optical experiments.

See how the lines that connect the tops of the columns and the lines in the floor point to a single spot in the distant arch. That spot is called a vanishing point. It is at that spot that everything disappears. The bases of the columns on the left side of the picture show us the right side of the bases. The opposite is true of the columns on the right side. PERSPECTIVE The columns in the front are much larger than those farther away. We assume that in the real architecture, they must surely be the same height.

Assessment Create a colored/outlined picture using linier perspective. Write an short essay on the back: Topic sentence – How was Renaissance Art different from medieval art. How your picture represents an idea/technique from Renaissance art. A definition of humanism and how humanism effected art during the Renaissance. Concluding thought.
