1 answer:

4 0

Here are some of the main reasons why European expansion was prevalent from 1450-1750:

1) Increased desire for trade- European countries wanted access to new goods/materials (like spices) that were unavailable in their home countries. In order to obtain these goods easier, they constantly explored for more effective trading routes.

2) Opportunity to become rich- Finding a new resource or new territory would allow a country to prosper financially, as they could sell it to their citizens/other countries.

3) Spread religious views- Europeans wanted to expand their Christian views to other people in different regions and territories.

Judith and Her Maidservant is a painting by the Italian baroque artist Artemisia Gentileschi. Executed sometime between 1645 and 1650, it hangs in the Museo di Capodimonte in Naples. The story comes from the deuterocanonical Book of Judith, in which Judith seduces and then assassinates the general Holofernes, who had besieged Judith's town. The exact moment depicted takes place after the murder when her maidservant places the severed head in a bag, while Judith checks around her.
