Ask yourself is Andrew Jackson good or bad? Did he do the right things? Is Andrew Jackson A hero or a villain?Andrew Jackson in my opinion is a bad person but don’t get me wrong he did do good things.He was the president but not a very good one in my opinion. Also i think that his childhood reflected on him as he got older. I think if he was going through tromas he would have been a better person. But at the same time i think it is kinda a good thing because he made people fear him and respect him. But he also hurt people and killed people.
Andrew Jackson, when he was president, if he wanted to do something he would do it right then and there. He didn’t care about other people’s opinion. He was very uncompromising even if it was a wrong thing to do he still did it. I feel like Jackson was addicted to make tariffs in my opinion. Jackson wanted to do his own thing. He Replaced every one who knew what they were doing for more younger and loyal people. Causing the spoil system.

The cherokees helped Jackson defeat the red sticks and made them surrender. But Jackson still was trying to kick them off their land after they helped him. He wanted their land for white settlers, they wanted to remove the Indians because apparently they were more civilized. In my opinion means he wouldn’t have to worry about the indians if they were civilized. This was called the indian removal, He wanted all the Indians to leave causing the trail of tears.
The trail of tears happen when he removed the Indians. They had to walk to the north or the west i do believe but not positive. Anyways, they had to walk in bad conditions and some people didn’t make it. It was really hard for them because they were all struggling and Andrew Jackson was just waiting on the white people to do their thing by taking over the indians land, while the indians are dying. Apparently, he is a hero letting people die because he has a grudge against them.

Italian Renaissance painting
A. Provide your explanation of the stylistic characteristics associated with the Italian Renaissance period here: The Renaissance Era, represented a rebirth of interest in liberal arts- sciences, from math to philosophy, astrology and astronomy to all arts media. It promoted knowledge available to all for the first time in recorded history as a result of the advent of the printing press. Subjects depicted were often of religious nature, although the era was characterized by a separation of man from church governing his thoughts. Italian renaissance painters were commissioned to do works such as Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel, but also included the depth of emotion depicted in Leonardo DaVinci’s The Last Supper, and also by DaVinci, the infamous, Mona Lisa. This era ushered in the use of oil paint which proved both more flexible than previously widely used Tempera, which cracked more easily, and was not able through the addition of media such as oil or turpentine to alter the application of paint to better adjust for the play of light.

The detail of human anatomy and the morality of attackers vs. both the daughters and Moses are both displayed vividly, a piece of art that teaches- so relevant to this period. Perspective is also displayed, taking into account the precision of the attention to math and physical sciences, particularly valued during this rebirth.
Flemish Painting (Northern Renaissance)
A. Provide your explanation of the stylistic characteristics associated with Flemish painting (Northern Renaissance) here: Flemish painting of this era, like Italian renaissance artwork, experienced a similar shift in subject matter, and played with all the Italian innovations, including a more accurate depiction of light, but was less concerned with perspective and the exactness of details depicted , often with slightly elongated features. Faces seem to have had a 2 dimensional flatness.
B. Provide the following information for the work of art you have selected to demonstrate Flemish painting (Northern Renaissance):

iii. Date of Artwork: 1650s

C. Provide your detailed and descriptive paragraph that specifically demonstrates how the stylistic characteristics associated with Flemish painting (Northern Renaissance) are present in your selected work of art: Evident in this painting are many of the attributes associated with Italian Renaissance painting, including depiction of an astronomer at work (touching on the beginning of the shift to genre painting (introducing a new concept of common folk in their natural, homelife, work scenarios, becoming acceptable artform matter). Demonstration of a more accurate play of light on objects both in the foreground and the background of the painting, characteristic of Italian renaissance painting adopted by the Flemish/Dutch. This painting, less than several others, doesn’t seem to struggle so much with perspective. But is shows connection to the importance of scientific advances of the time, as well as the human subject being unknown, except as the generic ‘astronomer.’ Note the cherubs on the column, the hourglass, the globe indicating acknowledgement that the world is no longer perceived as flat, the heavy velvet folds of his vestments and the play of light on each object, also, he is reading a printed text- a nod to the dynamic shift of the time education and knowledge accessible to common folk.
Mannerism
A. Provide your explanation of the stylistic characteristics associated with Mannerism here: Mannerism’s stylistic characteristics exaggerate the emphasis on proportion, balance and ideal beauty that the High Renaissance of Italian painting revered, offering a style that is characterized by an intellectual sophistication and suggests an appreciation for artificial qualities, not present in prior styles.
B. Provide the following information for the work of art you have selected to demonstrate Mannerism:
i. Artist’s Name: Andrea del Sarto (Andrea d’aAgnolo)
ii. Title of Artwork:The Holy Family with the Infant Saint John the Baptist iii. Date of Artwork: 1530
iv. Material(s)/Medium(s):Oil on wood
C. Provide your detailed and descriptive paragraph that specifically demonstrates how the stylistic characteristics associated with Mannerism are present in your selected work of art: Characteristics of Mannerism are apparent in this work, in that the pose including the presence of a spherical globe, cross, and odd grouping of the family with priest(?) exaggerates the inference of the reverence for the baby that is born a Saint, as if the world must know.
Baroque
A. Provide your explanation of the stylistic characteristics associated with the Baroque period here: The Baroque period influenced architecture, sculpture, music and painting. In paintings, it often used primary colors (red, blue and yellow) and frequently in close proximity to one another. The period’s characteristic focus on movement, emotion and drama expressed the societal turbulence and shifting evolution of the period 1600 to mid 18th century. Axes were slanted to left or to the right giving the distinct impression of movement and unpredictability in action or drama infused paintings, while the action was off-center. Asymmetry and clearly expressed emotion are characteristics of the time and artforms as well.
B. Provide the following information for the work of art you have selected to demonstrate the Baroque period:
i. Artist’s Name:Giovanni Baglione
ii. Title of Artwork:Sacred and Profane Love
iii. Date of Artwork: 1602-03
iv. Material(s)/Medium(s): Oil on canvas
C. Provide your detailed and descriptive paragraph that specifically demonstrates how the stylistic characteristics associated with the Baroque period are present in your selected work of art: In this, Sacred and Profane Love painting by Giovanni Baglione, the drama of a fallen angel being chastised by another, more mature, angel wearing armour, while a human man lurks in the background, demonstrates the action, drama, emotion and the diagonal axes, all characteristic elements of Baroque composition. The very realistic features and natural facial expressions illustrate the implied moralistic considerations involved.
Personal Favorite
A. Choose a work of art from the image collection that you enjoyed. Provide the following information for the work of art you have selected here:
i. Artist’s Name: Fra Carnevale
ii. Title of Artwork:The Birth of the Virgin iii. Date of Artwork: 1467
iv. Material(s)/Medium(s):Tempera and Oil on wood.
B. Discuss and describe the work’s effects on you. Consider the following in your response:
i. Were there technical elements or subjective reasons that added to your appreciation of the art?
ii. Did understanding the elements and principles of design increase your enjoyment of the work?
iii. Did you connect with the work of art through an emotional response?
Although I liked several, the Birth of the Virgin caught my eye, mostly because of the architecture depicted. From a technical standpoint, I feel like the arches in the building are Baroque in style, yet this piece of the Renaissance era, pre-dates the Baroque period, so that’s a curiosity for future pursuit. The juxtaposition of the white of the structure to the extreme blue of the sky and the echo of both throughout the wardrobe of the subjects is aesthetically balanced and pleasing to the eye. The reliefs in the fascia depicting the stories of the bible above, Adam and Eve and the serpent, the coupling and the father with son are interesting motifs, considering the title of the painting, also, the scene doesn’t resemble a manger, with opulence seeming the name of the game here, reminiscent of the Mannerism style- but pre-dating that, as well. The many dichotomies of this work of art add interest and evoke a sense of wonder, while the clarity and definition, as well as the positive vibes imbued, make it among my favourites of the grouping provided by Artstor.
