Comparing Leonardo And The Aquarium

The Museum I chose to go to is The Museum of Natural History, the museum was great and pretty interesting. The topic that I mainly focused on was the Native Americans. My main points was to focus on the way they were living, how they managed to survive and most importantly their traditional cultures. There were many things I've seen that I learned in class, such as the ghost dance and how they were forced out of their land to live in the reservation. There were also many things that we haven't discussed in class; for exa

The Aquarium and Leonardo have many tremendous things hidden inside, but they both also have remarkable architecture like a huge fin on the outside or glass in a cool circular shape. This provides excitement for the kids when they first see the place. The excitement that sparks in first seeing the

Two main differences immediately apparent between Raphael’s School of Athens and Leonardo’s Adoration of the Magi are the compositions of the large figure groups within each painting and the state of completion. In the forty foot wide fresco of School of Athens, the figures are organized in a mathematically constructed arrangement. The heads of the figure group in the background create a central horizontal line across the fresco. The two smaller figure groups in the foreground on the left and right are arranged with slightly less linear organization however when compared to the figure group of Leonardo’s Adoration of the Magi

Indulge your artsy side and spend the day wandering through the many exhibits at The Museum of Art (recently named the second best museum in the U.S. by Business

If there is a travelling exhibition, it’s always a good idea to see it while you have the chance. Then, if you have time, you can look at other things in the museum.

This event gave me a chance to get out of my normal everyday routine and travel to a place I never thought about visiting. The museum was very organized and had tons of stuff to admire. This museum made me recall old facts and ideals I learn about rocks and minerals in one of my previous class, making this event a learning process for me. The Lizzadro Museum of Lapidary Art has lots of things to offer. From a great staff of people offering insight on some of the artwork to the wonderful pieces of artwork laid out to view

I learned a lot from this trip. It was an unforgettable moment. I loved that Mr. Bierly presented all the pieces then for a person who was the first time visited a museum, I felt that was the best and even for others then already had been in one .I am very sure, it was better and more instructive. I liked that we could have our time to explore more pieces then tried to apply what Mr. Bierly taught in class. One thing that I experienced in the trip, while he was explaining each pieces of art, I was able to understand then apply my knowledge on it. I really enjoyed time in the

Some of the other museums I have been to have included the South Florida Museum in downtown Bradenton, Florida and the Museum of Science and Industry (MOSI) in Tampa right across the street from USF. These are very different from the Ringling because they focus on different types of things. The South Florida Museum is a natural history museum that hosts displays for the public that deals with Florida’s past human civilizations and animal life. It has its own manatee aquarium and planetarium and is very interactive for children. MOSI is more of a science, health, technology, robotics centered museum and works to combine fun with education. It also has its own space planetarium and an IMAX dome that plays different movies and has many things for kids to enjoy themselves while they learn about science. As you can notice these two museums are not at all like the Ringling. Therefore, the Ringling is the only museum of art that has cultivated my understanding, interpretation, and appreciation for European art and the decorative elements that it displays in its galleries. When you are there you truly feel as though the world’s treasures are there before you and you are standing in a palace. With its vast display of Baroque style art from the surrounding regions of Europe, to the decorative objects and Greco-Roma sculptures, and varying

One of my favorite things to do when traveling in a new city is to visit the museums. I

Visiting the beautiful Rancho Dominguez was a very fun experience for me and my friend. The museum was a very tranquil landmark that was well kept and organized. The staff was also very friendly and really helped us soak in as much information about the historic adobe museum and how it housed the Dominguez family.

This large room has been created to resemble a conservatory that might exist on the property of a large estate. The decorations change several times a year. Often, there are themes that relate to the changing seasons. Because it is designed to give the appearance of a conservatory, all of the decorations are made to look as if they were created from flowers and plants. There are usually animals portrayed in the exhibit. Sometimes this place can be very crowded, especially on a Saturday evening, so it can be difficult to take pictures and see everything. Just remember to be patient and polite when you bump into other guests, and you will enjoy

The driving force in Leonardo’s time for developing the society was a combination of the current state of well-being, the rulers of the cities and the wars that were happening throughout Italy. War has a way of bringing along new ideas. While the inventors are creating weapons, new techniques are discovered to create items. Some of these techniques are then able to be used during the times of peace. With war also comes with many types of economic improvements. These wars gave the ruling families more money. With this money they are able to try and outdo one another by having their engineers come up with something to show the wealth they have. A prime example would be the buildings and sculptures that were created. The trying to outdo each other

Leonardo Da vinci invented many things, some things are almost creepy close to what we have today. Leonardo Da Vinci made things like helicopters and things similar to tanks. He a machine gun crossbow. Leonardo Da Vinci Made giant crossbows, this crossbow was made to scare the enemy.

Leonardo da Vinci is a world famous Italian artist most commonly known for painting the Mona Lisa painted in 1517. But Leonardo was more than just a painter, he was a scientist, and an inventor. He was well known as someone who challenged the original thinking. He wanted to improve the quality of his work. He originally that what the previous artists thought was what was true, he began to look into the planets and the functions of the eye. He found that what the previous artists thought wasn’t true. He began to question the interaction of light and our eyes. He began to look into perspective in artwork. Perspective is what makes the painting look more than just one dimensional. He was very interested in what our eyes did and how it related

As I look at Leonardo da Vinci’s painting I realize that a lot when into painting this masterpiece. First, he shows that Christ is in the middle with a natural light behind his head to catch the attention, his body is in a shape of a triangle to show that he is stable, along with the vanishing point above Christ’s head. Second, the light in the background is split in have to show a dark side and a light side. This is an example of subordination and emphasis because attention is drawn to the light and not toward the darker colors. Thirdly, the composition of the painting itself is simple. The vanishing line is the line of heads and the lines that go out from the vanishing point all line up with Christ. This makes it appear that everything coming
