Download Northern Renaissance art in the lab

Go through this at your own pace. Really
look at the pictures (be sure to open the PP
to slide show so you can see the pictures
well) and comment on them, just like we did
in class.
Hand write notes you gain from your own
looking at the pictures that will help you
understand what the art outside of Florence
was like. Do a quick search online if you are
stuck on what you should focus on.
Also, be sure to fill in info about the authors,
first from the slide, and then from your book
notes/online if need be.
One more note: There is way more art in
this slide than pictures you need to know.
You are only responsible for on the test are:
Arnolfini Portrait
Peasants wedding
Garden of Earthly Delights
However, if you’ve haven’t figured this out,
you’re going to be writing something on the
differences in the art, and I figured seeing
more examples could only help your
understanding of it.
