Important Information Title-Christ crucified with Toledo in the background. Artist-Domenikos Theotokopoulos, El Greco. Date of composition-around 1604 to Artistic era-Baroque

I chose this painting because of how important this is to. This is because I am a devout Christian and I know a lot about Jesus’ life. Also we just celebrated Easter which is because of Jesus being crucified and I know that whole story from the stations of the cross in church. This painting means a lot to me and my religion.

Important Information Title-Mother Artist-Joaquin Sorolla and Bastida Date of composition-1895 Artistic Era-Post Impressionism

I chose this picture because it is a very good representation of how an actual mother treats her children. I love this painting because it brings back memories form when I was a kid cradled in my mothers arms. My cousins actually used to call me crying Ryan because I always cried for my mother. I love this painting and my mother.

Important Information Title-Monalisa Artist-Fernando Botero Date of composition-1978 Artistic era-Postmodernism and Deconstructivism

I chose this painting because it is very intricate and well draw. I also like a lot of this artists paintings. How he draws most of his paintings with fat people is different, but I seem to like how Fernando does this. I think its trying to convey that even though she is larger then in real life the paintings and Monalisa are still beautiful.
