DAY 3: The Italian Renaissance

FOCUS:  Perhaps the most dramatic, or at least widely acclaimed, breakthrough in the Renaissance was in the realm of art, in particular painting.  Not only did Renaissance art reflect growing concern with secular subjects, it involved new artistic tools and techniques that more accurately portrayed those subjects.  Pre-eminent among those tools was the shift from tempera (egg based) paints painted on wood or as frescoes on walls to oil based paints applied to canvas.  


TASK ONE:   Read the summary of Renaissance Painting Techniques for Here. 

 

Homework:   Please study for your map quiz and prepare your annotated bibliography for homework.
