ENVS 110 - Art and Climate Assignment
Your assignment for this week (due Monday December 1st 2008) is to
- Identify one artist from each of the
following time period
1400 - 1549 (or earlier)
1550 - 1849
1850 - present
- For every artist find three pieces of artwork
that depict landscapes or images of the sky. For some of the early,
mostly religious paintings you may have to carefully examine the
background between the saints ...
- Then use this link to answer the following questions for each painting.
Exception: it can be hard to find good early landscape paintings, so for the period from 1400 - 1549 you are not restricted to one artist. Pick whatever image you like.
