很棒啊，马萨乔是文艺复兴时期第一个画家，发明了透视法
One of my very favorites! Excellent! Thank you for your wonderful work.
Thank you for this detailed video. I will reference this in my art portfolio project :)
Gerini's Throne of Mercy is gorgeous.
The memento mori makes its point well, to say the least...
Looking at these different depictions of Christ on the cross, I don't see him displayed this way in churches I've attended. I wonder how that would impact services.
this is my phone lockscreen
Thank you for pointing out God's foreshortened foot. I had never noticed this before, although I have admired this work both live and in print. Also great points about the parallels with the Strozzi chapel.
Thank you for your work!
Saw this in Florence...then in art history class. Better to study then go! The first Renaissance painting they say.
Lovely video!!! I had never made the connection between the composition of this piece and the work in the Strozzi Chapel!!! This Cathedral and it's adjoining cloister is full of amazing works that I never cease learning more about. I hope you will continue making more videos about the works there.
Question: Why do you say that linear perspective is "rediscovered" by Brunelleschi (4:55)?? How was it that he was not its discoverer?? Was he not the Florentine who used the Baptistry outside the Duomo to test his perspective? I thought that he was the original discoverer. What am I missing?
There is evidence that linear perspective was understood in antiquity. An example can be seen on the Palatine in Rome.
@@smarthistory-art-history I had no idea! Thank you for a swift response!!
Can someone teach me how to use linear point of perspective
Yes! We have several videos on the subject. Start here: smarthistory.org/linear-perspective-explained/
