I’m working on a art test / quiz prep and need a sample draft to help me study.

1. Your forum question was on Giorgione’s Tempest and its subject. Compose an essay in which you advance your best theory as to what the subject of this painting is. Be sure to describe the painting and draw evidence from the painting itself for the theory of its subject that you advance in your essay.

  1. Construct an essay in which you discuss the style, moment of story shown, patron or history of commission, and what is going on in the time period in terms of society that might have had an impact on why the work looks the way it doesof the two representations of the Virgin and Child in Italian Renaissance art that we have looked at this semester. How does each work exemplify the context that they come from? This essay should be at least 5 paragraphs long (an introduction, a paragraph for each work in which you compare and contrast the works, and a conclusion). The two works to be discussed are:

                  Giotto, Virgin and Child (Ognissanti Madonna) (Late Gothic)
