In his painting, Paris Street: Rainy Day, Gustave Caillebotte showcases his view on late 18th century Paris. The figures nearest to the audience are blurred and seemingly out of focus whereas the pedestrians and carriage towards the center of the town square have sharp edges and are more distinctly defined. The images in the background of the painting remain nebulous and dim. The point of focus advances the viewers eyes to the buildings in the background. Caillebotte demonstrates a two-point perspective using parallel lines in his arrangement of roads and buildings. This two-point perspective sends the focus to the back and blurs out images on the foreground.…

Masaccio also began using mathematical proportions for buildings, and figures in his compositions. This became Realism based on observation and based also on mathematics to aid the pictoral organization. Evolving from this came more 3 dimensional forms, perspective which had little to do with math, and the arrangement of solid forms in space. Linear perspective began during this time as a new technique, this is when there is a vanishing point with receding lines. DaVinci used this technique in his “The Last Supper” to create a measureable realistic space which enhanced the realism of the Renaissance style.…
Introduction: In this lab i used glucose and starch to show if the cell membrane is permeable, impermeable, or selectively permeable to these substances. Dialysis tubing is a plastic like substance that has small pores in it. These pores allow certain chemicals to flow into and out of the cells. The size of the molecule determines what goes through the tubing. On of the materials that we will be using is glucose. glucose is a simple sugar that easily dissolves in water. To test for the presence of glucose we will use glucose test strips. The strip will change from an aqua blue color to a brown color if there is glucose in the solution. Starch is a complex molecule that forms from a suspension in the water. To test for the presence of starch I will use Lugol's iodin. When it comes in contact with the water and turns black or blue thats how you know that starch is present.…
Fillipo Brunelleschi was a renowned Italian artist, sculptor, engineer and architect of the Italian Renaissance. During the early stages of his architectural career, Brunelleschi made a rediscovery of the concepts and principles of one point linear perspective, which he used intensively and extensively for the ornamentation of his architectural ventures. Before Brunelleschi, others had understood the importance of perspective, but up until then, no one had succeeded in devising a mathematical formula for one point perspective. His discovery, use, and demonstration of one point linear perspective proved to be a major turning point in Renaissance art and architecture, and unbeknown to Brunelleschi, his achievements were to have a great impact on the Renaissance, and those who followed him. Perspective is defined as the method of representing threedimensional objects in recession on a two-dimensional surface in order to give the same impression of a relative position, size, or distance as the actual objects do when viewed from a particular point.1 Brunelleschi understood the importance of this concept, and desired to demonstrate how indispensable it could be. This essay will discuss the influences that played an instrumental part in Brunelleschi's achievements, additionally it will discuss how Brunelleschi first demonstrated his formula of linear perspective.…
The Auditorium opera was placed in the inner court and simply took more than half of the structure. No signs symbolized the opera, as its only indicator was the tower which marked its entrance. The incredibly large auditorium consisted of more than four-thousand seats, which had been raised up to ten-thousand later on. This dramatic change of capacity made The Auditorium suitable for all kinds of events such as great political conventions. Technically, Sullivan had beaten the majestic traditional European style by designing an auditorium with no side seats. Moreover, he created a new concept in theater, he designed the auditorium in a circular shape that made it look like a stadium. This extremely smart and creative couple ,architecture and engineering, delivered the perfect appearance in the new type of ceiling work that was designed by the their perfect unity. The ceiling was designed as a conical tunnel that looked like a speaking trump. Furthermore, it increased in height and width the farther or closer you moved away from or upon the stage. Believe it or not, this incredible work that was done on the ceiling was not for attracting peoples attentions on its beautiful details, rather it was all about designing a tunnel based on scientific facts for the graduation and diffusion of sounds. Regardless of all the mind-blowing aspects of this art, the auditorium had a small stage making it a major negative feature, since…
As the curtains of the theater opened up I saw a big castle with huge wooden doors and a balcony. In this first scene I was blown away by the size of this set piece and was truly amazed by the detail. One of my favorite things about this set piece is how the characters were using it for more than just a castle, for instance when the front was turned into a cave. I thought it was very clever how the curtains dropped down from the balcony to create the cave. An interesting fact about the set is how it wasn’t just a flat backdrop to have in the background, it was three-dimensional, like the fact that there were windows that actually opened and closed as well as a real balcony that the actors went up on. My favorite scene was one where the Frenchmen were up on the balcony mocking King Arthur and the rest of the Knights of the round table, this was one of the funniest moments of the play. Another thing about this set that really amazed me was the realization of how much time it took to build this, but it made the difference and was completely worth it.…
The Globe Theater was built by James Burbage in 1576. In 1597 the land lord (Giles Allen) of the land on which the theater was built on wanted to tear it down so they did. The company bought land at Blackfriars in upper Frater Hall and started preparing it for use. They used the timber from the old theater to build the new one which soon became the Globe Theater. Burbage basically built the theater for the Chamberlain's Men, including their chief writer, William Shakespeare. The lease for the land and the ownership of the Globe was divided in two parts 50 percent was owned by Cuthbert and, Richard Burbage, and the other 50 percent was divided between five other members of the Chamberlain's men, John Heminge, Augustine Phillips, Thomas Pope, Will Kempe, and, Shakespeare.…

Sandro Botticelli followed a different path than many artists and painters of his time, which in turn gave him a unique edge. Instead of basing his work on the ideas of light and shade, he incorporated the element of line, into many of his works of art, and he also relied heavily on drawing beforehand. This and his inclusion of classcism, individualsim, and his own play on realism are the aspects that set Botticelli apart and made him unique during the Early Renaissance period.…
One of the things about Fontebasso’s Last supper is that he uses linear perspective and uses space in sense of it being deep. When you look at this picture you feel like you’re a little far away but in the same room watching and listening to them talk. Yet, when you look at Giampietrino’s redemption of The Last Supper you can see the perspective angle that is creating linear perspective. On Giampietrino’s piece of art, you feel like you’re standing right on the other side of the table partaking in the chatter. The more you stare at these two pictures you can see that they use an eye level angel which is set on a diagonal. The viewer feels like they are standing in the same room as them listening to them discuss and chatter.…
