This class stuck with me because of the Giotto di Bondone fresco in the Scrovegni chapel. At the beginning of the class we saw The Original Sin by the Limbourg brothers. I thought that it was interesting because of the continuous narrative and how Adam and Eve were walking to the white page, our world. Michele da Carcano’s sermon I thought was a good explanation for art. Didactic, emotional, and mnemonic tactics is one of the ways how art get through people. I like to think that art leaves people with a greater impression than words or book, it depends on the author.
I really liked Giotto di Bondone fresco in the Scrovegni chapel because of the final judgment that was painted above the entrance. I really liked it, that I wanted to include in my exhibition. I thought that Giotto did a good job displaying Joachim’s sadness after being rejected at the temple. He looked so sad, that I felt sad. Giotto does a good job of showing enough in the fresco, playing with the colors and setting of where everything was going on. I really liked the fresco.
