across a painting in between the times of these two paintings, and I decided to compare that painting as well.

Fisher Folk, undated, and Madonna and Child, finished in 1438, are two works of art that embody those two concepts very well. During a first level iconographic observation of Fisher Folk we see three people off to the right side of the painting. Two older women and a younger child are in the middle of an exchange for some fish. All three are dressed in multiple layers of ragged clothing trying to keep

This painting comes from the Italian renaissance period beginning in the late 13th century and continuing to the late 16th century.

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.
