C.S Lewis starts off with narrating the main events of his childhood that formed how he thought and acted. Of course the beginning is the character of his parents‚ which he humorously contrasts – emotional and vivacious father‚ calm and rational mother. Other elements are his inclination towards imagining‚ drawing‚ and writing instead of sports due to a missing knuckle in his thumb‚ the turbulence caused by the death of his mother and calm stability‚ the consequential growth in friendship and camaraderie

has a way of developing over time‚ just like people do. Going back to the Early Renaissance‚ Donatello created a sculpture of David by recreating a scene from the Bible. As time passed Michelangelo created a newer version of David that wasn’t so youthful and had more detail than Donatello’s David. Sculpting had evolved over time when Bernini finally created an elaborate David in mid-fight. All of these sculptures were acceptable in the time in which they were created but as time went by people’s preferences

When I first began comparing the two different statues of David‚ Bernini’s Baroque "David‚ and "Michelangelo’s Renaissance "David" the first thing that came to my attention was the facial features.
