Renaissance Painting and Sculpture
Techniques, Issues, Index to Images, good sites
This is where we will locate the index to images you are compiling at
the moment. We will also add sites relevant to this course, which
concentrates on the craft and process of art making in the
Renaissance.
- The Society of
Tempera Painters
- these are modern painters, but they have a history section, an
explanation of the technique of egg tempera painting, and Frequently Asked
Questions. Very interesting site!
- Old
Masters' Drawings from the Sophus Larpent Collection
- an essential part of the process of art is drawing. This is a
collection of the drawings of many of the artists featured in our course,
and worth perusing to see the technique, style and apparent visual
intentions changing.
- Women Artists
in History
- 15th and 16th centuries gallery. Each artist illustrated with at least
one image, including many you don't often get to hear about.
- On
Artimesia Gentileschi
- interesting and very full site put together by Adrienne deAngelis.
Artemisia is somewhat outside the scope of our course, but someone you
should know about.
