Brancacci Chapel



This is a famous pieces of Brancacci Chapel paint in a church in Santa Maria del Carmine.I learn some information of this painting in the website.Top panel on outer edge show Adam and Eve expell from the Garden of Eden. Most of the chapel show scenes of the life of Saint Peter.It is huge and beautiful.

I think the people at then are so genius as us.





Adam and Eve tempted by the serpent, 1424.It about the Adam and Eve born at the first world.They nacked because it just the start of the world.This "fresco" cycle at the Brancacci Chapel, Santa Maria del Carmine, Florence.The snack wind around on the tree is a human head.It a little frightful but the paint express painter's specail emotion.

Renaissance Florence

Websit*
by Sandro Botticelli (1445-1510)
The introduce in this websits is particular and a little funny.What I learn there is,the author have wirte some stories and history.And the interested part is the author make a few change at the painting.He use some software and revisethe picture that we can focus on the Venus. It is only the Venus is colorful,the other is just black and white.Venus will look more beautiful.I also leave a comment in there.
★Madonna del Magnificat
by Sandro Botticelli about 1480-1481
This pictur is about a child and five angels.The author think they are probably a family.What I learn there is the author wirte almost like real history!The picture is shiny and look like gold.Sandro Botticelli use some warm color to paint it.I think this websit author can write more interduce on Sandro Botticelli.But it is a good post almost.Picture is clear and story also very detailed.

Siena

Fresco in the Piccolomini Library in the Duomo of Siena





This paint is from Siena.And it is a library,it was build by Pope Pius III in honour of his uncle, Pope Pius II (Aeneas Piccolomini) and decorate with frescoes by Pinturicchio between 1502 and 1508. The picture is about some people was meet to "Emperor Frederick".It describe about a king and a girl are having
marriage agreement.I think this maybe is just a political marriage.


Madonna Painting

This is a copy of a painting by "Ugolino di Nerio"
,a 14th century painter in Siena.This is a school that teaches traditional tempera gothic painting in Siena. It is very pretty and refined.And around
the Madonna was all gold !!The painter casting the gold so careful and resplendent.I think even the people in Renaissance advocate provident,but
some think was still a little waste.

Giotto

Last Judgment

The name of this piecese is very sensation.The story
of the picture is from the Holy Scripture,one part of
"Notice".The general appearance of picture is royal
and inviolability.When the son of man come in His glory, all the angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of his glory.I think the Holy Scripture teach all the people
to conduct oneself,so it was very sanctity and specially.







Madonna and Child
This pictureis a panel painting by Italian medieval artist Duccio di Buoninsegna.And it decribe that Mary,the mother of Jesus is hold the baby,the baby is Jesus.The painting sometimes call "Stoclet Madonna"
.I think this piecese is implication some fragrant emotion.It tall us
the maternal instincts greatness!Mary is holding Jesus I think it is
very impressive.

Renaissance


Mona Lisa
This picture is the most famus renaissance pieces in the world.It made by
"Leonardo da Vinci" during the Italian renaissance and paint in oil.The pieces
owner now is the gorvernment of France and wall in the "Louvre" in Paris.
I think the painter of the Mona Lisa is very fierce.The light smile smoothe
millions people of the world.It is the popular pieces in the paint circles.


Venus of Urbino
This pieces is an oil paint by the Italian master named "Titian".It depict a rude woman.She lie down on the bed and look so relaxed.It wall in the "Galleria degli Uffizi" in Florence.I think maybe some people will
think it is pornographic or somenot refine picture,but it is a art produce!I think it is very elegance and full of the art breath.
