Images of Devotion in Renaissance Art

http://www.mtholyoke.edu/artmuseum/devotion.html

This is a website about the Images of

devotion in Renaissance. I look on some

strange link in this site. Also, I read the

paragraph of the 3 page of Images

devotion. I learned that the arts in this

time are usually made in cooperation.

The arts in this time were conservative

so change people's thinkings of the art

in this time.

Mona Lisa Smile / Leonardo da Vinci / 1503-1506 / 77*53 cm

I choose this art is Mona Lisa Smile, it's

made by Leonardo da Vinci. I choose this

art because it use " sfumato " to made this

art look more like smoke. No line or no side

just look like smoke. This kind of skill made

Mona Lisa looks like float out from the art,

but also like fit into the art. And this kind of

gradient colors made her smile look like

and be in a long time but also look like will

change in suddenly. Also, I thinks even I

change any place to look at her she seems

look at me every time.

Genesis / Michelangelo Buonarroti / 1508-1512 /43*18 m

This is the fresco called Genesis was

made by Michelangelo Buonarroti .

He spent long time to finish this fresco.

I like this kind of fresco because you

can know the storys by the fresco.

I like the most is this part in Genesis.

It's the create of adam. I like the feelings

in this fresco. Adam's eyes full of believes

and thirst, and the god is commiserate. With

the touch of their finger Adam will get the

life.
