A Brief Comparison Of Raphael And Parmigianino

Mona Lisa has facial bone structure, and correct depiction of the human hands. The background is also very specific. Renaissance artists were much more

From the book Living with Art I chose Raphael. The School of Athens on page 160. This painting took place in Stanza della Segnatura, Vatican. Rome. This is a naturalistic stylized pace of art. The two visual elements of design that I saw in the Raphael painting, is color, and space. There are both horizontal, vertical, and diagonal lines to making up the arches and all the columns. An implied line is in each group of men and women in this paining. The group of young women and men in the bottom right hand corner are looking up at the ceiling as like the man are trying to describe the structure of it. The arch emphasis allusion to make the person

From the late fifteenth century to the genesis of the sixteenth, a new movement influenced art in Europe, expanding the bleak limits of past art and created some of the most memorable masterpieces in history. The creators of these artworks during these decades of the Renaissance include Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo Buonarroti, and Raphael Sanzio. Influenced and sometimes driven competitively by each other, these artists share differences and similarities in their life, art style and techniques, and interests.

Both paintings represent the Madonna (the Virgin Mary) with the baby Jesus on her lap. In the previous painting, the arch vault and throne on which the mother is seated is stylized very realistically along with the saints surrounding them are all in proportion to themselves and to each other. In the later painting the pose of the Madonna is elongated and exaggerated, the baby in the later painting is quite large and the angels in the picture are crammed to one side with a "prophet" on the opposite which is very small not coming up to the Madonna's knee.

The Renaissance was a period in Europe civilisation that immediately followed the Middle Ages. It was an era of cultural growth that was introduced in Italy and was carried on throughout northern Europe lasting the 14th to 17th century. Many artists and scholars of that time period believed that they were contributing in a revival of the ideals and worth of the periods that arrive before them. The Renaissance period open doors for individuals to rediscover one’s will and obligations of observing the environment. It was an opening for them to express themselves in human terms. They shifted their interest from God centred to humans centred, known as Humanism. The Renaissance had expanded into four periods which were classified as Early Renaissance,

Throughout Europe, the Renaissance period had various effects on art which can be broken down and seen from Southern (Italian) and Northern paintings. With the renaissance, came disinterest in dogma, and more of a focus on naturalism and humanism. However, the strong influence of religion never left either the Northern or Southern art works, due to the commission by the church. Giuliano Bugiardini’s, Madonna and Child with St. John the Baptist, 1510, is a pristine depiction of what Southern European art during the renaissance contained, element by element. Northern artists kept most their roots, focusing heavily on religion while enhancing on the details and adding few aspects of naturalism; while Southern artists took

Both conveyed many intense emotions through religious scenes, focused on individualism, and both focused immensely on the minute details in the artwork. Many would feel many emotions after taking a glance at the artwork made during the Northern and Italian Renaissance time period because most of the artists’ focused on not only the religious side of the art, but to also to have a deeper meaning. The details that the artists put into their artwork during these two time periods is what made their artwork stand out compared to other pieces. The small details like the veins in an arm, or the branches coming off of a tree could make the biggest difference. Even though the Northern and Italian Renaissance had many similarities, both still had many differences. Those differences included the Northern Renaissance artwork focusing more on everyday life of regular humans, while the Italian Renaissance artwork focused more on biblical scenes and classical

The pieces of art I will be comparing and contrasting are the three statues of David, by Donatello (Donato di Niccolò di Betto Bardi), Michelangelo (Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni), and Bernini (Gian Lorenzo Bernini). The statues are modeled after the biblical David, who was destined to become the second king of Israel. Also most famously known as the slayer of the Philistine giant Goliath with a stone and a sling. The sculptures are all based on the same biblical hero, but differ from one another. Each David is unique in its own certain way.

Throughout history, people have used paintings and art as a tool to express their religious beliefs and values. Illustrations depicting the Virgin Mary and child, often referred to as Madonna and Child, are one of the most recurring images in Christian and European Art through the ages. Though these paintings and sculptures may have similarities in their iconography and style each work of art varies based on the different artists’ and time periods. Two paintings that portray these features currently reside in the Museum of Fine Arts Houston. The first, Virgin and Child by Rogier van der Wyden, was originally painted after 1454. In the painting, the Virgin Mary is holding Christ against her shoulder as he twists around to face toward the viewers. The second painting is Virgin and Child with a Donor, painted by Antoniazzo Romano and originally painted c. 1480. In this painting, Virgin Mary is supporting Christ who seems to be standing and includes a figure of a man with his hands crossed in prayer. While both paintings depict the mother and child, there are both similarities and differences in style and portrayal. In this paper, I will thoroughly examine these traits, as well as address the similarities and differences associated with the two paintings. This analysis will be done by using information gained from reading Gardner’s Art Through the Ages, in class lectures from ARTH 1381 Art and Society Renaissance to Modern and ARTH 1300 Ways of Seeing Art, and close visual

By comparison to the identified paintings of Raphael, discrepancies can be spotted from both clothing of Virgin Mary

Directly inspired by antiquity, the loggia is a rich work made of several kinds of arts: architecture, sculpture, and painting, and is part of what is considered as the most grandiose achievement of humanism in arts, started under the reign of Julius II with his architect Bramante. Julius II and Bramante respectively died in 1513 and 1514. Leo X being Pope, he designed Raphael as the successor of Bramante: Raphael’s loggia was finally achieved around 1519. Even if the date of completion is not sure, it is believed to begin in 1518 (proofs of payments and letters serve as proofs) and finish in 1519. Therefore, Raphael Loggia is the continuation and improvement of Bramante’s first plans.

Century after century our world goes through different stages; we grow, we learn, and overall we push the boundaries. Life is more than waking up every day and living by the expectations a society gives you. There is proof in our history and our art that no matter what decade, people will try and break those social norms. This shows tremendously in the making and remaking of the St. Peters church.

The Renaissance was a period of cultural movement and the introduction of cultural heroes, is known as “Renaissance Men”. One of these men was Michelangelo Buenarroti. Michelangelo was a world-wide known painter, sculptor, architect, and poet, who was of great Importance and had a great impact on our modern day culture.

     In many of Raphael’s early works of art he echoes the style of Perguino, like that in the painting St. George and the Dragon. The style of Raphael in his early twenties proved in many aspects to far exceed those of Perugino.

     The style and the form of these two paintings reflect the development of the artistic techniques during the Italian Renaissance. While both reflect a Biblical theme with a central focal point of the Madonna and Child, “Madonna Enthroned” has a key image that is best viewed from a central position and “Madonna and Child…” has a greater degree of importance over the majority of the surface of the canvas. In “Madonna and Child…” the viewer does not perceive that an image is being forced upon them as is found in the work by Giotto. A use of light and space is also key to preventing the Puligo piece from being “forced”, where the organization of distance visibly removes the viewer from “Madonna Enthroned” while drawing the viewer into the painting in “Madonna and Child…”. Color also serves a similar purpose, where Giotto’s work is monochromatic but ocher while Puligo’s work carries a greater expression through the detail involved.
