subject of the work I observed was a Madonna enthroned painting‚ a pictorial representations of Mary‚ the mother of Jesus‚ with her child. The event depicted shows baby Jesus sitting on his mother’s lap. As for symbolism and representation‚ “The significantly larger size of the Madonna and child group indicates that they are more important. Her traditionally red gown signifies the passion of Christ and her blue mantle that she is queen of Heaven. Her ornate throne‚ which repeats aspects of Gothic architecture

Bellini’s famous Madonna and Child is originally a religious painting which is believed to depict the Virgin Mary and Jesus‚ causing popularity and appeal amongst the religious audience of the time.

True to it’s common characteristics‚ Chimabue’s "Enthroned Madonna and Child" stays loyal to the style of Italo-Byzantine art.

For my final essay‚ I would like to compose a compare/contrast essay between George R. R. Martin’s book Game Of Thrones and the adaptation that is currently being shown on HBO. I would focus exclusively on the first season of the show‚ as it closely follows the events of the first book in the series. I would expand upon not only the omissions made in the television series‚ but also explore any creative licenses that the producers took. I would then discuss how these changes affected the story‚ or
