The Jan Van Eyck is born in 1395,and died 1411.He is the best artist in Netherlands school of painting,and he also invented oil painting so he has a very large contribution to the art.In his life he drew a lot of painting and my favorite one is "Portrait of Giovanni Arnolfini and his Wife ".

In this painting the room is decoration very luxury,adove the person's chandelier is very expensive because this chandelier is elaborate.The two person both are wearing expensive clothes,their

clothes maybe is use the sable and ferret's fur to mad.The man's gown original has a very beautiful collar but because as time goes by so faded.The man's black hat is very epidemic at that time.between the two people has a mirror and in the mirror has two people the wedside said maybe they are the artist.The woman feet has a little dog,in that time the dog represents loyalty.

The Masaccio is born in ltaly and his is a famous artist in Renaissance.He good use of perspective and chiaroscuro,in his all painting,my favorite painting is Santa Maria Novella.Now,we look at this painting togeter.

Trinita

Artist:Masaccio Date:1245~1428

In this painting,Masaccio use the perspective to paint and the paint is very symmetry,cross at the center,slowly opening to radiation.The bottlom of the cross has a sarcophagus,and sarcophagus inscribed I once was what you are and what I am you also will be"

When I see this painting,I find some interesting thing is the real church's chapel is very big,but in this painting the church's chapel is very small,I think this is church attached to the chapel.

Donatello's David

Artist:Donatello / Date:1430~1460

This statue is Renaissance's work and this work is from Donatello.This work was round sculpture erected outside the building 's work.This work the most striking parts of his body was copper.At his feet had a big giant head,because he defeated the big giant and cuted his head.He was smiling because he beat the giants.

When I saw this sculpture,I think in history if you can beat a giant,it was very glory.I feel David's body's muscle curve was very beautiful and solid.
