Renissance Era along with the Baroque Era. I enjoyed learning about these two eras because
there were so many similarities between the two but so many differences as well. I liked how the
Baroque Era was building on the things that the Renissance Era had created. I think that these
two periods in art history were focused on realism and people and I love it because you are able
to see so much emotion and powerful messages during these periods. My favorite images from
the Renissance period would have to be the “Mona Lisa'' by Leonardo da Vinci, “David” by
Michelangelo, and “The Birth of Venus” by Sandro Botticelli. Then my favoirte images from the
Baroque period would have to be “Landscape with a Calm” by Nicolas Poussin,”The Night
Watch” by Rembrandt Van Rijn, and “Banquet Still Life” by Abraham
van Beyeren.
I personally like the “Mona Lisa” because it is so realistic. I like
how she is just nicely placed with this background almost painted just
out of his imagination. I mean it doesn’t seem to have a specific area
that she is in. I also like the dark colors but also the oranges and
greens that are in the background.
Overall. I love both of these periods in art history because they are so realistic and also show so
much detail while holding so much meaning. Nowadays though looking back at this art is really
cool because we are able to create our own stories with each piece whether it is a painting or a
sculpture.
