WARM-UP • What is a metaphor? • Explain what this image might be a visual metaphor for? • Extension: • What does it show you about life during the Renaissance?
Classical • -People look better than real life. • -Bodies appear active and lifelike, like they could “come alive.” • -Faces are calm and do not show emotion.
Medieval • -Images are very flat, 2D without much depth. • -Usually religious (Mary and Jesus) • -Important figures are larger than others • -Bright colors • -Solid color backgrounds
Renaissance • -Uses perspective • -Objects in “back” smaller than those in “front” • -Lifelike, 3D figures • -Lines meet in a single point • -Full, detailed backgrounds. • -Soft, shadowy colors • -Often non-religious
