Answer:

Explanation:

<u>The chosen artwork is </u><u><em>The Descent from the Cross</em></u><u> by van der Weyden.</u>

<u></u>

The painting is done on the wood that looks like the upper side of the cross and was possibly an altarpiece. We can see the moment when crucified Jesus' body is taken down from the cross. Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus are holding him. <u>Virgin Mary</u>, his mother is fainting underneath him, while <u>John the Evangelist</u> supports her. On his side are Mary Cleophas and Mary Salome, the Virgin Mary's younger sisters. Behind Joseph of Arimathea is a bearded man, probably his servant, and on the right side of the picture <u>Mary Magdalene</u>, visibly upset.

<u>All of the people surrounding Jesus' body, including the one taking him off the cross, are morose, inspecting the scene with broken looks in their eyes. The background is done in gold and the colors are vivid and strong.</u>

The reason I like this piece of art is the emotions shown on it and the details on people's faces; the whole scene is painted with an extreme sense of sadness, and it awakens feelings of distress. I also like the intense colors and the contrast between them.

<u>The characteristics of the Renaissance period that can be seen at this piece of are</u>

  • <u>strong realism and three-dimensionality </u><u>which can be observed in the way bodies and the drapery are painted, with all the details. </u>
  • <u>the return of strong Biblical topics</u><u>, but more in description of virtues and human destiny than the other-wordly God's effect. </u>
  • <u>the strong presence of emotions and the precision put into the details that present them</u><u>. We can see how the artists show tears on most of the faces, painting each one unique and with strong precision and care.  </u>

Which statement correctly describes the Parthenon in Greece? Missing Metadata Its architectural plan consists of mathematical ra
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

Failing to follow StudypoolIts architectural plan consists of mathematical ratios, symmetry, and proportion.

Explanation:

  Parthenon is the name of a temple, built in the 5th century BC in Acropolis, a mountain located in the center of Athens, whose structure, despite the weather, conflicts and pollution, is still preserved. The word Parthenon means "the virgin's room," and the purpose of such a building was to pay tribute to the goddess Athena.

   The Parthenon is considered a work of great purity and perfection. The beautiful proportions of the structure derive from the ratio 9: 4, a mathematical ideal that encapsulates the relations of length to width and the space between the columns, based on their diameters. Built at the time when Athens (the foremost of the Greek polis) was experiencing its most prominent moment, the Parthenon image is often used as the definitive symbol of classical Greek culture, the basis of all modern Western society.
