"Madonna Enthroned" Times Two: Cimabue and Duccio.
[ send me this paper ]
(11 pp) One way that art history has been studied

to the early Gothic Christian influence of linear
and simple depictions, forward to the beginnings
of the Renaissance where once more the human shape
starts to develop a realistic identity.

"Sword And Sheath," "Scholar's Studio" And "Red, White And Blue" - The Color Red
[ send me this paper ]
8 pages in length. The color red in any context indicates strength, power and even defiance; in some cases, it also means a statement about war, conflict and other strife. Compared to all other colors of the rainbow, the color red is symbolic of political, social and religious ideals where a strong statement needs to be made. Within the art world, the color red represents the same indicators, often utilized in such a way as to blend with softer colors in order to temper the strength so prominent in red. Three countries with artists who proudly use red as a reflection of their nations' history are Africa, Korea and the United States, with red being a prominent color in Sword and Sheath, Scholar's Studio and Red, White and Blue. The theme associated with red in each of these works of art illustrates how each artist utilizes the color to represent strong emotional attachment to his or her country. Bibliography lists 9 sources.
